For this month’s bread bakers Deepti of Baking yummies gave us the theme to make
any Rolls. I choose to make these crescent rolls as these are easy to make and I baked it on the day of deadline to include our bread in the link.
A roll is a small , often round loaf of bread
served as a meal accompaniment . A roll can be eaten whole or cut into half and
served with a filling in between the halves.
We like to have bread rolls or buns as snack
along with tea. It is a common snack sold in shops as a accompaniment with tea
, mostly sweet buns.
Crescent
rolls resembles croissants in shape but were more dense than them.
The making was these rolls are easy even kids
can help in shaping the rolls. It may be fun time for the kids.
Requirements :
3 cup flour
2 ½ tsp Active dry Yeast
¼ cup sugar
+ Sprinkling
1 tsp salt
1 ½ cup Milk
2 tbs Butter
Method :
In a bowl , add the
flour , sugar , salt and yeast , mix together .
Warm the milk and Pour into
the flour mixture along with the butter. Mix well with a wooden spatula.
Empty the contents into the counter top and
knead well for 5 – 10 minutes or till the dough becomes soft and smooth.
Place the dough in an
oiled bowl and cover with cloth or cling wrap. Let it double in size , it may
take about 1 ½ to 2 hour.
Punch the raised dough
and divide into two equal parts.
Roll one part into a circle
of 12 inch on the lightly floured surface . Butter / Jam / Nutella can be
applied on the circle at this stage. I kept as plain.
Cut the circle into 12
wedges with a pizza cutter or knife.
Roll the triangles into
crescents starting at the wider end towards the sharp end. Repeat with the
whole dough.
Place the rolled crescents on the baking tray
and cover with a cloth , allow for second rise of about half an hour.
Brush each rolls with
milk and sprinkle sugar on top.
Bake in a preheated oven
for 15 – 20 minutes @ 200*C or until the
rolls turn golden brown.
Let the rolls cool for
ten minutes and serve.
Serve along with jam ,
nutella , soup or any spicy curry.
Crescent rolls are ready
to be served.
