For the dough

• 450 g bread flour
• 1 spoon salt
• 100 gr active sourdough starter
• 3 tablespoons sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 egg
• 125ml of milk
• 130ml of water
• melted butter or olive oil to brush on top

For the filling

• 1/2 cup Pizza sauce
• 1 cup grated cheese
• 1 package of mozzarella pieces
• chopped basil
• 1/4 cup spicy pepperoni

1. Combine the milk with the water, then stir the sourdough starter and sugar into it until dissolved.
2. Place the bread flour and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the egg and then start mixing on low speed using the dough hook. Alternatively, you can choose to mix the ingredients with your hands.
3. Add the milk and water mixture until everything is well incorporated. If the mixture is too dry, just add a little more water.
4. Knead the dough until you are left with a well-hydrated dough.
5. Add some melted butter and mix on low speed.
6. Boil for another 2-3 minutes, scraping up any scraps that stick to the bowl.
7. Once the dough is elastic, firm and starts to come away from the sides, then transfer it to a floured surface.
8. Continue kneading the dough by hand until it's nice and smooth.
9. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl. Then cover and place in a warm place for 3-4 hours to ferment in mass.
10. Once the dough has risen enough, press the dough and shape it into a ball. Then put the dough in an airtight container and refrigerate overnight, if you want to bake it in the morning.
11. If you want to bake on the same day, then continue with the next step.
12. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature, or until it is soft enough to handle.
13. Roll out the dough to a 12-inch by 20-inch rectangle.
14. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce or tomato sauce on top of the rectangular dough.
15. Add some cheese and pepperoni, then roll the dough starting from the long side.
16. Grab the seam and use a sharp knife to cut the pizza roll into 10 equal pieces.
17. Place the rolls in a well-oiled baking dish, leaving enough space for the rolls to expand.
18. Cover the container loosely and place in a warm area to test. The rolls should double in size after 3-4 hours.
19. Preheat the oven to 425F and place an oven rack in the center of the oven.
20. Once the rolls are insulated, spray them with a little water and place them in the preheated oven. Bake them for 15 minutes, then lower the temperature to 400 degrees F and continue baking for another 15 minutes, until golden brown and oozing with gooey cheese.
21. Brush them lightly with melted butter and enjoy.
