Sourdough Sugar Buns
Description
The baking is simple and quick. Making beautiful buns with sourdough starter is very easy—just prepare a rich sourdough dough in advance and shape the buns. For enhanced aroma and flavor, I recommend sprinkling the buns with a mixture of regular and brown sugar; it will give them a beautiful golden crust. These buns can be baked individually or arranged in a pie shape, as shown in this recipe. Optionally, decorate the buns with melted chocolate, chopped nuts, or diced dried fruits. Serve warm or cooled. Perfect with tea.
