Ingredients

Scale
  • 220 grams water
  • 175 grams bread flour
  • 175 grams all-purpose flour
  • 110 grams active sourdough starter
  • 20 grams sugar
  • 10 grams neutral oil
  • 7 grams salt
  • For the filling: 12 grams ground cinnamon
  • 65 grams light brown sugar

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine water, bread flour, all-purpose flour, sourdough starter, sugar, oil, and salt. Mix until hydrated.
  2. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes. Then perform 2–3 sets of stretch and folds every 30 minutes until dough is smooth.
  3. Bulk ferment at room temperature until doubled in size (about 6 hours), then chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
  4. Prepare the filling by mixing the cinnamon and brown sugar. Roll out the dough into a rectangle, brush with cream, and sprinkle with filling before rolling tightly.
  5. Place seam-side down in a loaf pan for a second rise (2–4 hours). Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  6. Score the top and bake for about 50 minutes until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack before slicing.
