If you’re new to milling your own flour, this is a great recipe to start with! It uses fresh milled flour along with some all purpose flour to help with the transition!

Toppings

A traditional filling is a cinnamon filling, but my family loves when I use jams, jellies, and marmalades in these sourdough sweet rolls in place of the traditional cinnamon! The family favorite is an orange marmalade filling. If you haven’t tried my orange marmalade recipe yet, you must! It is my family’s go-to!
