Description

A unique fusion of sourdough focaccia and delightful cinnamon rolls that creates a sweet and tangy treat perfect for any gathering.


Ingredients

  • 200 g active sourdough starter (about 1 cup)
  • 400 g warm water (about 1 ⅔ cups)
  • 10 g salt (1 ½ teaspoons)
  • 510 g unbleached flour (about 3 ½ cups)
  • 113 g salted butter (1/2 cup or 1 stick)
  • 250 g brown sugar (about 3/4 cup)
  • 6.5 g ground cinnamon (about 2 ½ teaspoons)
  • 4 g vanilla extract (about 1 teaspoon)
  • 120 g powdered sugar (about 1 cup)
  • 4 g vanilla extract (about 1 teaspoon)
  • 30-45 g milk or cream (2-3 Tablespoons)


Instructions

  1. Combine the active sourdough starter and warm water in a large bowl.
  2. Add salt and flour to the starter mixture. Stir with a spatula until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 10 minutes or until elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a towel, and let it rise for 4-8 hours until double in size.
  5. Preheat your oven to 375℉ (190℃).
  6. Prepare a baking dish with cooking spray.
  7. Once the dough has risen, press it into the prepared baking dish, dimpling it with your fingers.
  8. In a small saucepan, melt the salted butter, then add brown sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Mix well.
  9. Drizzle the mixture over the dimpled focaccia.
  10. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
  11. Prepare the glaze by whisking powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth and drizzle it over the warm focaccia.
