Ingredients: 

600g flour (half strength)

280g Refreshed sourdough starter

200g milk

90g butter at room temperature

45g sugar

2/3 eggs depending on size

2tsp salt

Preparation

We usually start this recipe at night.

Dissolve the sourdough starter in the milk then add  sugar, flour and eggs. Work until you have a smooth dough then add the butter and work again until the dough is really smooth and elastic.

You may need to add a little milk or a little flour depending on whether the mixture is too dry or too sticky.

Prove overnight, or until the dough has doubled.

In the morning  shape the dough according to your recipe.

Let the dough rise until doubled in volume (for 4 hours depending on room temperature),  then bake in a preheated oven at 180C .

Baking times depend on the shape you have chosen.
