Step 1: In the bowl of a stand mixer using the paddle attachment or a large bowl and hand mixer, combine water and yeast until dissolved (I do this in a small cup). Add sour cream, sugar, oil, salt, egg and 3/4 cup flour. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed.
Step 2: Add remaining 1 1/4 cups flour and mix until all the flour is incorporated, scraping down sides of bowl. The dough / batter will be sticky.
Step 3: Cover and let rise in the same bowl until doubled.
Step 4: Coat the wells of a 12-cup muffin tin with vegetable spray.
Step 5: Scoop the dough / batter into the wells, filling halfway.
Step 6: Cover and let rise until doubled.
Step 7: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Brush roll tops with egg white and sprinkle with poppyseeds or sesame seeds or leave plain.
Step 8: Bake 20-30 minutes or until lightly browned.
Step 9: Turn out of the pans and cool on a wire rack.
