Low Fat Desserts Recipes - Poppy Seed Rolls

Ingredients

  • oil for greasing

  • 450g strong white flour

  • 5ml salt

  • 5ml easy blend dried yeast

  • 300ml hand hot skimmed milk

  • 1 egg, beaten

  • For the topping

  • 1 egg, beaten

  • poppy seeds


Method:

  1. Lightly grease two baking sheets with the oil. Sift the flour and salt into a mixing bowl. Add the yeast. Make a well in the centre and pour in the milk and the egg. Gradually incorporate the flour and mix to a soft dough.

  2. Turn the dough on to a floured surface and knead for 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cut into 12 pieces and shape into rolls.

  3. Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheets, cover loosely with a large plastic bag (ballooning it to trap the air inside) and leave in a warm place until the rolls have doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 220'C/425"F/Gas 7.

  4. Glaze the rolls with beaten egg, sprinkle with poppy seeds and bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
