Sourdough Fruit And Nut Rolls Recipes

SOURDOUGH FRUIT AND NUT ROLLS

Steps:

• Mix all of the ingredients in a large bowl until incorporated. Cover and let rest 30 minutes. Stretch and fold the dough 3-4 times during the next 2-3 hours at 30-60 minute intervals.
• Let the dough continue to rise for several hours more, keeping an eye on puffiness and growth. Because of the heavy dried fruit and nuts, you will not see big bubbles on the dough surface or major aeration through the underside of your bowl, but the dough will roughly double in size. You can also refrigerate the dough for part of the bulk fermentation. When you bring the dough out of the cold, flip it once in the bowl so the top of the dough gets moist again.
• Flour your counter and scrape the dough out onto it. If you have a scale, place your bowl on it and tare it. Then divide the dough into six pieces, each weighing approximately 180-190g (a little less than the original dough weight divided by six, to account for some bowl mess).
• Shape the six pieces of dough into balls, and place them on two pieces of parchment paper on a cookie sheet or baking pan with sides (this helps the plastic cover not touch the rolls). If you are baking in an oval baker, use a rectangular piece of parchment paper. If you are baking in a round baker, use a square piece of parchment paper.
• You can easily fit three rolls into round bakers that are 5 qt and larger. Three rolls also fit in the Breadtopia oval clay baker (see photo gallery), but they will likely need to be pulled apart after baking. To avoid the rolls adhering to each other, you can bake three batches of two rolls.
• Put the entire pan/sheet into a plastic bag and let the rolls proof for 0.5-1.5 hours depending on room temperature.
• Preheat your oven with your baking vessel(s) inside for 30 minutes at 475F.
• When the oven is preheated and the rolls proofed, uncover your rolls, lightly dust them with flour and score the tops. With all the bumpy nuts and berries, a simple ) or + works best.
• Take out the baking vessels, lift the parchment into the vessels, cover and return them to the oven.
• Bake at 475F
• 10 minutes lid on
• 10-12 minutes lid off
• If you are baking multiple batches, leave the lid in the oven after you take it off at the ten-minute mark. That way your entire baking vessel is hot and ready to go for round two. Also, if you have space, put your second batch of rolls in the refrigerator while batch one is baking.
