rollsLight, airy and pillowy soft rolls.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups warm water
1 tbsp instant yeast
2 tbsp granulated sugar
2 tbsp oil
3 1/2 – 4 cups bread flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp diastatic dry malt powder (I use Hoosier Hills)
Directions
- Add water, sugar, yeast and oil in bowl, let sit for 5 – 10 minutes then add 3 1/2 cups flour, salt and malt powder.
- Mix into a dough and knead for 7 minutes.
- Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a towel and set in a warm place to rise for 1 1/2 – 2 hours until it had doubled in size.
- After dough has risen, turn it out onto a clean counter and divide into 14 – 16 pieces. Take each piece and flatten into a small rectangle (This is the stage to fill if desired.) and start rolling it up towards you starting from the furthest edge. Slightly pinch the ends into blunt points like a baguette. Pinch the sides together to seal.
- Once they are all shaped put them on a baking sheet lined with parchment or silicone, cover for a second rise, 30 minutes.
- Heat oven to 350° and bake rolls for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. (No need to brush with egg or cream unless you desire to)
I can;t rate your recipe( I haven’t tried it YET!!) but I do have a question…..why malt powder????
Dry malt powder is a diastatic used in bread making to create a crusty exterior and a soft interior, it is a must! You can get it on Amazon.
