Key Ingredients
- 7 Morning rolls
- 8 slices of butter (or about 40g)
- A pinch of coarse salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, gather your leftover morning rolls. Rolls that are a day old are fine, but they shouldn’t be too hard or stale.
Step 2
Next, prepare the butter. If you have pre-portioned baking butter, use it as is. Otherwise, cut a standard stick of butter into approximately 8 small pieces, each weighing about 5g. You can adjust the amount based on the size of your rolls.
Step 3
Using a knife, carefully make a cross-shaped slit about 1cm deep on the top of each morning roll. Be gentle to avoid crushing the bread. Place the rolls on an oven tray lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between them.
Step 4
Gently tuck one piece of butter into each slit you made in the morning rolls. Press the butter slightly to help it stay in place and prevent it from melting out too quickly.
Step 5
Take the remaining piece of butter (about 5g) and place it in a small microwave-safe dish or paper cup. Microwave for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until completely melted. Stir if necessary.
Step 6
Using a brush or spoon, evenly coat the tops of the morning rolls with the melted butter. A generous coating will enhance the flavor and give them a lovely sheen.
Step 7
Sprinkle a small amount of coarse salt over the buttered morning rolls. Be mindful not to over-salt; just a tiny pinch will do to enhance the flavor without making them too salty. This adds a delightful savory note.
Step 8
Preheat your oven to 185°C (365°F). Once preheated, place the tray with the salt bread into the oven and bake for approximately 10 minutes. Baking time and temperature may vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on them. They are ready when the tops are golden brown and the butter has melted and soaked in.
Step 9
Carefully remove the baked salt bread from the oven tray and let it cool slightly. Enjoy them warm for the best experience, as the butter’s richness and the saltiness combine wonderfully. Your delicious salt bread, made from leftover rolls, is ready to be savored!
