How to Make Sourdough Sandwich Buns Schlotzsky Style

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sourdough starter, water, and honey. Stir until the honey is dissolved.
  2. Add the bread flour and salt. Mix with a wooden spoon or your hands until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  5. Gently punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces.
  6. Shape each piece into a ball and place it in a greased English muffin tin or ring molds.
  7. Cover the tins with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until almost doubled in size.
  8. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
  10. Let the buns cool slightly in the tins before removing and serving.
