Great recipe! I know this recipe has been up here for years, but I just made these yesterday after reviving some neglected starter. I used unfed (what would have been discard) so I'm VERY happy to have another recipe option to simply throwing away half my starter. For the first go I opted for the sweet vs savory route in order to use up a bit of homemade strawberry jam as the filling. As for browning the tops, when melting the butter I dissolved a bit of baking soda (maybe a smidgen over 1/4 tsp) in order to boost the pH and aid in browning (pretzel trick, same thing I do when caramelizing onions).
