Hey y'all! Hope you are doing well. Today I am sharing our sausage pinwheel recipe. This dough recipe is different than most because it uses the sponge and dough method. This is a 2 step bread making process that yields better volume and texture of the finished product.
I made a video showing how I make it. You can find that here.
To start we need to make the sponge. To a mixing bowl add in 1⁄2 cup of granulated sugar, 1⁄2 cup of neutral-flavored oil, 2 cups of warm water, 1/2 cup of instant nonfat dry milk, 4 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 tablespoon of yeast. Mix this together it will be very wet.
Cover and let it rise till it is doubled in size. The sponge step is important if you skip this step it will not be as soft and fluffy of a dough.
Now that it has doubled, add in 3⁄4 cup + of all-purpose flour, 1⁄2 teaspoon of baking powder, 1⁄2 teaspoon of baking soda and 1 1⁄2 teaspoons of salt. Mix until it is well incorporated and is smooth and not shaggy. You may need to add more flour but only add enough to where you can make a ball with the dough.
Place in a greased big bowl, cover it and let it rise until it is doubled in size.
While it is rising cook the sausage then put it through a food processor so it is in tiny pieces.
On a silicone mat roll or pat the dough into about a 18 x 12-inch rectangle. Top evenly with the cooled sausage. If you are making smaller pinwheels cut it in half length wise. Roll it up and slice 1" thick if you want smaller rolls or cut into 12 for large rolls. Place on a greased pan about an inch apart. Cover and let them rise until doubled in size.
In my air fryer convection oven I bake them at 300 degrees F for
5 minutes turn and bake them 4 more minutes until they are golden brown. (Your
baking time may vary depending on the appliance you are using) Cool a few
minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
