Ingredients
- ¹⁄³cup warm water (105°F to 110°F)
- 2¼teaspoons active dry yeast
- 5tablespoons granulated sugar, divided
- 2large eggs, room temperature
- ¼cup sour cream, room temperature
- 3cups bread flour or unbleached,
- all-purpose flour
- ½teaspoon fine sea salt
- 4tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter,
- room temperature, and cubed
Preparation
- 1. In a liquid measuring cup, dissolve the yeast and 2 tablespoons of the sugar in the warm water. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
- 2. Once foamy, add the eggs and sour cream and whisk together well.
- 3. Insert the chopping blade into the work bowl of the food processor. Add the flour, salt,
- and remaining sugar to the work bowl.
- 4. Process on Low to combine, and while still on Low, slowly pour the yeast mixture through the feed tube until all ingredients are combined. If it does not form a dough ball, add additional water, 1 tablespoon at a time.
- 5. With machine running again on Low, add cubed butter, a little at a time so that each piece is incorporated before adding the next. Continue to process until dough is smooth, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- 6. Dough will be sticky, but should not be greasy. If greasy, process for an additional minute.
- 7. Transfer dough to a clean surface and knead by hand for a few minutes. Put into a bowl and cover with a damp towel or plastic wrap. Allow to rise until doubled, about 1½ hours.
- Use dough as desired
