In reply to Heidi. You can omit it or replace it and you can sub 1/3 whole grain, no issues there!

In reply to Michele. Can I omit the sugar from the recipe, or replace with a little stevia? Also, can we sub 1/3 whole grains like your bread recipe says?

Do you have weight measurements for this recipe? I have been searching for a hamburger bun recipe that is light and fluffy (I notice all sourdough recipes claim that ). I just would feel more comfortable with weights?

In reply to Marlene. Mixers are pretty standard kitchen equipment but you can certainly do things by hand, general rule of thumb is to double the amount of time called for mixing when it comes to hand kneading.

What if I don’t have a mixer with a dough hook. It would be nice if your recipes had a what to do if you are doing this by hand. I make your sourdough discard bread recipe and we love it. Such an easy recipe. I would like to make the the sourdough hamburger recipe.

Best I’ve tried. Last minute Easter bake due to my daughter’s buns flopped.

In reply to Gina. Have you had any other issues with your starter? It just sounds like it needed more time or your starter wasn't very active.

This recipe didn’t work for me. The rolls are incredibly dense, like pretzel. It’s summer and humid. I let the dough “rise” for an extra hour because it wasn’t rising. I can’t serve these to my guests. Bummer.
