Soft rolls in countless variations

Ingredients for 10 servings:

• 500 g flour
• 60 g sugar
• 60 g butter
• 1 tsp salt
• 35 g yeast
• 200 ml milk
• 1 egg(s)
• e.g. raisins, chocolate drops, sugar powder, etc.
• 1 egg(s)
• 3 tbsp milk

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest time approx. 1 hour; Cooking/baking time approx. 15 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 35 minutes

Chocolate, sugar, raisins, nuts everything is possible

Preheat the oven to 220°C (top and bottom heat). Make a yeast dough from the seven ingredients above. Once the dough is ready, knead in any ingredients you’d like. Let the dough rise in a warm place for half an hour. Now cut the dough into 10 equal-sized pieces. You can shape them round or oval if you like—your imagination is the limit. Let the formed rolls rise for another 20 minutes. Mix the 3 tablespoons of milk and the egg and brush the rolls with it. The rolls need to bake for 12-15 minutes, depending on the oven and the desired degree of browning. This recipe is enough for 8 Weckmann (pretzels). I was given it during my apprenticeship, and everyone in our circle of friends lines up when I bake it.
