Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more as needed, divided

  • 2 cups buttermilk

  • 1 cup unfed sourdough starter

  • 2 tablespoons butter, cubed

  • 2 tablespoons white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • ¾ teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted

  • ½ cup brown sugar

  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon

Directions

  1. Mix 3 cups all-purpose flour, buttermilk, sourdough starter, 2 tablespoons cubed butter, and white sugar in a glass bowl. Cover and set in a warm area until double in size, 8 to 12 hours.

  2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  3. Combine baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a small bowl. Add to flour mixture.

  4. Knead dough until it is soft but no longer sticky, adding flour as needed. Roll dough with floured rolling pin until it is 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick.

  5. Combine 6 tablespoons melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon until it has the consistency of a paste. Spread sugar paste evenly on rolled dough.

  6. Roll up dough into a cylinder shape. Cut dough into 1/2-inch pieces using dental floss or a serrated knife. Arrange rolls into a cast iron skillet.

  7. Bake cinnamon rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes.
