First attempt at cinnamon rolls. They came out great, though it is probably hard to produce a cinnamon roll that doesn’t taste good.

the sponge (to raise overnight)
2 cups sourdough starter
3 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 eggs (beaten)

the filling
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar

the icing
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon milk
3/4 teaspoons vanilla

    Jenn I am so impressed reading all your recent posts and congrats to finding the energy, creativity and dedication to be such a great mom. Girls look very happy and Ava here looking so much like Aylin. Love, Hulya

    Hulya,
    I hadn’t even noticed before.. Ava does look Aylin in that picture! Scott has been the one baking all the delicious bread, cinnamon rolls, english muffins and bagels! He’s the one with all the energy keeping us happy. 🙂

    Yum! I can smell those cinnamon rolls right through the computer screen! Scott….what does it take to get some starter? Did you say you made yours? How about that recipe, too?
    I just had a flashback…remembering how good your bread smelled first thing in the morning when you used to make it before school ( or was it the night before) in the bread machine.
    Love,
    Mom
