I honestly don't know how this happened, I'm not usually that good with breads, but I was picking my jaw up off the floor for hours after eating these. I kid you not, I ate 3 rolls in one go, and with every bite I was uncontrollably exclaiming in amazement. That's how good these are.


And they're actually really simple to make + an added bonus - they make your house smell absolutely amazing!

You can make a whole batch and freeze for later, every time you defrost one, your house will smell of roasted garlic and herbs. Highly recommended.

Measure out about 100g of the dough for each bun and shape them (I should make a video next time, noted)

Brush with melted butter and bake for about 20 minutes
Tips
  • * I will only provide the measurements in metric system, as I don't believe you can achieve accurate results when baking using cups and spoons. I highly recommend getting a kitchen scale so you can improve your baking game and get results you never got before! And they're so cheap as well!

    I’m confused. Are steps one and two reversed? I can’t figure out where the yeasty water comes from in step one. These sound amazing.

      When you make bread you always proof your water, yeast and sugar. That insures your yeast is working - then go on with step 2. Good luck. I'm trying this recipe as soon as I convert the measurements to cups, etc.

    English is my third language. It is OK, 1,2,3, if you know just a little bit about cooking, yeast has to rise, dry mix seperatly, mix wet, and move on.

      The issue is with the measurements transferred to the English (American) standardized measurement ie cup, tbsp, tsp etc...
