Overnight Sourdough Dinner Rolls Recipe
  1. Make the Dough (7:00 - 9:00 PM) In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine your activated sourdough starter, bread flour, salt, milk, eggs, and honey. Mix on medium speed for 2 minutes. Don’t worry if the dough is sticky—this is normal for sourdough! Gradually add in the butter, one cube at a time, while mixing on medium speed for about 4 minutes. The dough should be smooth, stretchy, and buttery.

  2. Let It Rise Overnight (10:00 PM - 8:00 AM) Transfer the dough to a large bowl, cover it, and let it rise overnight (8-12 hours). It should double in size by the morning.

  3. Shape the Rolls (8:00 - 10:00 AM) In the morning, punch down the dough and divide it into portions of 75-85 grams each. Shape each portion into a dough ball. Place the dough balls into a greased baking dish, leaving a little space between them.

  4. Second Rise (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM) Cover the rolls and let them rise for 2-4 hours until they fill the dish and look nice and puffy. If they rise too early, pop the dish in the fridge to slow down the process.

  5. Egg Wash (1:00 PM) Preheat your oven to 375-Degrees. Beat one egg and brush it over the rolls to give them a golden, shiny finish.

  6. Bake the Rolls (1:30 - 4:00 PM) Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and cooked through. Keep an eye on them after 20 minutes to avoid over-baking!

  7. Butter the Rolls (4:00 PM) Once they’re out of the oven, brush melted butter over the top to get that perfect croissant-like texture. For an extra touch, sprinkle sea salt, garlic, rosemary, or thyme on top!
