Serves: 18 – 24 rolls, depending on type of roll
Cooking Time: 20 mins + proving time

Ingredients

  • KNOTS
  • quantity of basic bread dough
  • 1 large egg, beaten, to glaze
  • sesame or poppy seeds, to decorate

Instructions

1

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Grease a baking tray.

2

Make your dough according to the recipe on p45 and use one-third of the quantity to make the knotted rolls.

3

Divide the dough into 18 portions, roll each portion into a thin sausage shape and twist into a knot.

Set the knotted rolls aside to prove until double in size.

Glaze the rolls with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds or poppy seeds, or leave them plain.
