Leichte Brötchen

This is a lighter German dinner roll. It’s a slight adaptation of one from @morinoko.

It is a two day recipe. You’ll want to make the starter the day before you plan on making the Brötchen, but it only takes a couple of minutes to mix it up and throw it in the refrigerator overnight.

This looks very clean and attractive to eat. Felt like taking the food from my device. I really wish I could’ve done that.
