BROTCHEN -TRADITIONAL GERMAN BREAD ROLLS



Brotchen -Traditional German Bread Rolls image

When I was living & working in Germany, I would go out every morning for breakfast, & every morning I would eat these little babies! This is a traditional recipe for Brotchen. If you like light, fluffy bread rolls DON'T try these! Brotchen are crusty on the outside but are chewy & quite dense on the inside.........

Time 3h20m

Yield 24 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 9

25 g active dry yeast
10 g white sugar
590 ml warm water (110 degrees F)
25 g shortening
10 g salt
875 g all-purpose flour
3 egg whites, stiffly beaten
1 egg white (for egg wash)
30 ml cold milk

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let sit until creamy; about 10 minutes.
  • Mix in shortening, salt and 3 cups of the flour. Beat with dough whisk or heavy spoon for 2 minutes. Fold in egg whites. Gradually add flour 1/4 cup at a time, until dough forms a mass and begins to pull away from bowl.
  • Turn onto a floured surface. Knead, adding more flour as necessary, for 8 to 10 minutes, until smooth and elastic with bubbles.
  • Lightly oil a large mixing bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour. Deflate the dough, form into a round and let rise again until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces and form into oval rolls about 3 1/2 inches long. Place on lightly greased baking sheets, cover and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.
  • Place an empty baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven. In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg white with the 2 tablespoons of milk to make the egg wash. Lightly brush the risen rolls with the egg wash. Place 1 cup of ice cubes on the hot baking sheet in the oven and immediately place the rolls in the oven.
  • Bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for about 20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown. Remove to a wire rack and cool.

APPLE CARNIVAL BUNS



Apple Carnival Buns image

Traditionally these were served in Denmark during carnival celebrations and are usually served with nuts and raisins. I edited the recipe to include apples (which I love) and omitted the nuts. Don't exceed the amount of filling though because they may burst when baking.

PARSNIP ROSEMARY BUNS



Parsnip Rosemary Buns image

These yeat-free bread rolls are super easy to make and taste very yummy. They are kind of like a damper with a slightly sweet taste from the parsnip. The original of the recipe comes from wonderful book "Mon premier dîner végétarien" by Alice Hart. If you feel like it, try using carrot in place of the parsnip or even pumpkin or beetroot.

Time 50m

Yield 9 buns

Number Of Ingredients 11

220 g parsnips, grated (2 medium)
200 g whole wheat flour (I used whole spelt flour)
75 g flour (I used spelt flour)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 pinch salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons applesauce (unsweetened)
4 tablespoons yogurt (low fat is fine)

Steps:

  • In a big bowl combine parsnip, flours, baking powder, baking soda, rosemary, salt and garlic powder.
  • Make a well in the centre and add the egg, yogurt and applesauce to it. Quickly knead into a doug (it will be shaggy). If dough doesnt come together, add 1 tbs or so more yogurt. Do not overwork the dough!
  • Divide dough into 9 parts and roll each part into a ball. Place the balls on a paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Using a sharp knife make a cross on top of each bun.
  • Bake in the pre-heated oven at 190°C/375°F for 25-30 minutes or until golden on top and baked through.
  • These are best eaten warm, but I like them cooled, too.
