These are wonderful! A friend had passed on some starter for Amish Friendship bread but I didn't feel like making the bread. I am glad I chose this recipe instead. I topped it with cream cheese icing and opted out of adding the nuts and raisins. I am having one now for a snack and I think it is the best cinnamon roll I have ever had. Thank you.
I think it is hard to find good old fashion recipes any more they all seem to use the same thing bread machine's or fast bread dough. I personally still love the good old fashion way of making thing from scratch, thank you for your recipe. sheila.
These were quite yummy! I used my own starter. I also didn't use the raisins and added a bit of lemon zest to the filling. They were tangy but didn't quite have the 'sour' that I would have liked. Someday I'll get this sourdough thing right... =)
wonderfully sweet that satifies my sweet tooth easy to make but stater takes too long to mature. On the other hand once you have starter you will never run out.
not bad, alittle dense though. I think next time I make this recipe I will add that last cup of flour at the end if it's all needed. And also let the 2nd rise take place overnight. Thanks for sharing.
These are the best ever. I subbed brown sugar for white,added crushed pecans-no raisins before rolling up the dough with the butter and sugar, and added white cream cheese frosting which is as follows--3oz.cream cheese softened & 1/4 cup of butter softened & 1 1/2 cups of confectioner sugar & 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract & 1/8 teaspoon of salt--blend all the ingredients in a bowl add to rolls after baking and a slight cool down. Warning after enduring the wonderful cooking smell these will go really fast--get one for yourself right away before the bandits arrive.
This was a great option for using some of my Amish Friendship starter. The dough seemed to take a really long time to rise but I'm sure that was because my kitchen wasn't all that warm. Turned out great otherwise. Thank you!
I used a batch of REALLY sour old amish friendship starter. I made it with whole wheat and spelt flours and even that in addition to it being as sour and wine-y as it was the rolls were really good. The rolls were very moist although very heavy and filling.
