Eggless Garlic Rolls Recipe

Eggless garlic rolls recipe is very easy to make and results in beautiful braided rolls perfect for individual servings.

I have been posting lots of bread recipes nowadays as I am so addicted to bread baking. Also the cake recipes I make all go for class videos, so couldn’t share any of those here. But planning to bake a cake soon. let me see how it goes.

I made these rolls for a live session in a baking group in FB. And I wanted to share the same with my readers too. So uploaded a short video of the making in Instagram. If you want to know the whole procedure, please watch the video in Insta. I am embedding it here. If you are not yet following me in Instagram, please take your time to follow. I will be sharing lots of recipes as well as my experiments there.

When I first planned to make garlic rolls, I didn’t want to stick with the regular shaping. Wanted to do something fancy and came up with this in social media. They usually use this shaping for cinnamon rolls. I gave a twist and made savoury garlic rolls instead.

But if you wish, you can just shape them into small rolls or knots instead of braiding. These tiny breads look super cute and also so buttery and yum. When I did the live session, so many group members tried this recipe and shared it over there.

If you are trying, let me know in comments or tag me in social media. I would be delighted to see your creations.

I am using a stand mixer to prepare the dough, but you can also knead it by hand. It takes 7-8 minutes in a mixer, but if kneading by hand, knead it for 10-12 minutes until the dough passes the window pane test.

While adding liquid, start with lesser quantity and add only if needed. This is because every flour absorbs liquid differently. So your dough might need more or less than the liquid given in the recipe. It is always safer to start with less and add only if needed.

You can bake these in a muffin tin or bake and serve paper liners or in silicon moulds. Use whichever tin or liner you have. There is nothing fancy about the dough or preparation.

As for the flour used, it can be either whole wheat flour/ maida/ bread flour. Keep close watch on the liquid added. As these are tiny rolls, you don’t need vital wheat gluten if using whole wheat flour. Just the flour will work great. As for filling, I have kept it simple, but if you want, you can add grated cheese along to make it rich.

I also have used instant yeast which is directly added to the flour. But if using dry yeast, use same quantity, but take 1/4 cup of water from the recipe itself, heat until lukewarm, prove the dry yeast and then add it to the flour. You can also use any herb you like, either dry or fresh.
