There are few things that could enhance the flavor and texture of a cinnamon bun, but sourdough is one of them. The added boost in flavor and the subtle chewy texture from a ripe sourdough starter, especially when used without the addition of commercial yeast, takes these soft, buttery, cinnamon sugar-laced buns over the top — with just slightly longer proofing times. Combine all of the ingredients, and mix and knead — by hand, mixer, or bread machine set on the dough cycle — adding more flour or water if necessary to make a soft, smooth dough. As I previously mentioned, sourdough is the process of fermenting grains, allowing the natural yeasts to raise the bread and break down the naturally occurring phytic acid in the grains. This phytic acid breakdown increases some nutrients, like folate, and also makes other nutrients more bio available.
