- Combine and mix ingredients for the starter in a medium bowl. Cover and allow to rise in a warm area for 30 minutes.
- Stir in milk, butter, sugar, salt, and eggs to the starter. Slowly add in the flour and form a soft and slightly sticky dough.
- Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Take care not to add too much additional flour. Knead for 3-4 minutes until the dough is smooth. Grease bowl and cover for 1 hour.
- Punch down dough and divide into 4 equal portions. Take 1 of the quarter and divide it into 6 pieces. Roll each piece to 3 ½ inch disk. Fill with desired filling and crimp tops.
- Allow the dough to rise 20 minutes. Brush egg wash and bake 20-25 minutes at 350 F.
