Steps:
- In a large bowl or stand mixer bowl, combine the sourdough starter, milk, salt, sugar, and egg until well mixed. Add the flour and knead until dough has a satiny sheen; 8-10 minutes by hand, about 5 minutes when using a stand mixer.
- Roll the dough into a 12 x 8 inch rectangle. Brush with melted butter. Mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over the dough. Distribute the chopped pecans over the cinnamon mixture.
- Roll up the dough from the long side of the rectangle. Slice into one-inch thick rolls.
- Note - I find it's easiest to slice the log in half, and then slice each half in half again. Then slice 3 rolls from each quarter of the log. That way I end up with 12 equal or nearly equal rolls. If I just start slicing willy-nilly from one end, I end up with some huge rolls and some miniature rolls! Maybe you have a better eye. If so, I am jealous. If not, my method works pretty well.
- Place the rolls on a greased or parchment lined baking sheet. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 2 hours.(At this point they can be placed in the refrigerator overnight and baked the next day.) Remove cover and bake in a 400 degree oven for 30 minutes or until well-browned.
- Remove rolls from baking pan and let cool on a rack. While the rolls are still hot, combine the powdered sugar, vanilla and yogurt and drizzle over the rolls. Tangy yogurt goes well with the sourdough flavor, but you can also use milk to make the icing if you prefer. Let sit at least 15 minutes before tasting.
