delicious slightly sweet rolls made from wheat sourdough without yeast

Mix the ready-to-bake wheat sourdough with the sugar beet syrup and let it rest, covered, for about 20 minutes. Then add all the other ingredients except the sesame seeds for sprinkling and knead everything for 10 minutes until you have a smooth dough. Let the dough rest for about 20 minutes. Then roll out into a square (about 15 x 15 cm) and cut out 8 square pieces of dough. Fold the pieces of dough diagonally to form a triangle. Place the triangular rolls on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, moisten lightly with water and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Wrap the baking sheet in a clean large bag and leave in a warm place to rise for 2 hours. Preheat the oven to 250°C in good time and bake the rolls with steam for about 10 minutes, then reduce the oven to 180°C and bake for another 10 minutes. (The times and temperatures may vary depending on your oven!!) If you don’t want the rolls to be too sweet, simply omit the sugar beet syrup!! Tip: I divide the dough in half and then roll it out; this makes it easier to separate the 4 square pieces of dough.
