Let’s take a moment to appreciate the fact that I have had to look up how to spell the word Hawaiian about 15 times in the past 24 hours. It sure baffles my mind how to create the right combination of I’s and A’s to spell the word “Hawaiian.” (And, even in that last typing, I still typed it incorrectly at first!) Okay, enough of the spelling difficulties and on to the deliciousness that is this fluffy, tangy and sweet roll!

I realize most foodie blog posts start with a backstory, and current anecdote and the walking through of each step. But, goodness I don’t have the time or patience for that…. So, click that “Jump to recipe” or just scroll down a smidge.

Sourdough Hawaiian Sweet Rolls

Tangy and sweet, fluffy and delicious! These melt-in-your-mouth rolls are perfect alone or with your favorite sandwich ingredients.

Equipment

  • Stand Mixer with dough hook attachment
  • 1/2 C. Measuring Cup
  • Dough Cutter or sharp knife
  • 9×13 Baking Dish

Ingredients

  • 1/2 C Sourdough Starter active and bubble
  • 1/2 C Yogurt milk kefir or whole milk
  • 1/2 C Honey
  • 1 Egg room temperature
  • 1 C Pineapple Juice can substitute apple juice
  • 1 Stick Melted Butter
  • 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
  • 5+- C Flour

Instructions

  • Start by combining active sourdough starter, yogurt, honey, egg and pineapple juice in the bowl of a stand mixer. Turn mixer on low.
  • While mixing ingredients, slowly pour in melted butter. Add vanilla.
  • Add one cup of flour. Turn mixer on low and mix until flour is mostly combined.
  • Continue adding one cup of flour and mixing in between each cup.
  • Allow dough to mix for 10-15 minutes, or until dough is stretchy and elastic. The dough should no longer stick to the bowl once it is finished mixing.
  • Cover and allow to rise for at least 12 hours or up to 18 hours. If you are not able to bake at that point, put the dough in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • Cut dough into 16 equal slices and shape into balls. Place dough balls in a buttered 9×13 baking dish.
  • Allow dough to rise a second time, for 2-4 hours.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for about 45 minutes or until golden. Remove from oven, rub butter along the tops and allow rolls to cool fully before separating.
