Here's what I made for Easter:
Place in covered container the night before:
1/2 cup water
1/8 tsp. yeast
1 cup flour
Next day:
Mix together and let mixture rise approx. 8-10 mins. until bubbly:
3/4 cup water
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. yeast
Place "sour dough" mixture to mixing bowl. Add yeast mixture and 1 TBSP oil. Add a little flour, then 1-1/4 tsp. salt. Add flour until dough is sticky, but doesn't stick to your hands. Place in a covered, greased container and let rise approximately 90 minutes. Roll out to 1" thick and cut with cookie cutter or biscuit cutter. (I used bunny cookie cutter). Let rise approximately 45 minutes. Brush with 1 whole egg with 1 TBSP water mixture. Bake 375 degrees until golden brown.
This is my pizza dough recipe. I decided to try it for the buns. It was awesome! Everyone loved it and the kiddies loved the bunny shaped ones.
That sounds so awesome, Cecelia! The bunny cutter must have been a hit! Elisabeth
