Dutch Crunch Rolls Recipes

CRUNCH DUTCH BREAD

Steps:

• In bowl of electric mixer, combine yeast, warm water, WARM milk, sugar and pinch of salt. Stir to dissolve and let rest for 5 minutes until frothy. Add in vegetable oil, remaining salt and about 2 cups flour. Using the dough hook attachment, mix at medium speed until the dough comes together. Add remaining flour a tablespoon or two at a time until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
• Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Place in a lightly greased bowl and turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in warm place for 1 hour until doubled in size. Once dough has risen, turn out again onto floured surface and divide into 6 equal portions. Shape each into a bowl and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Let rise for 15 minutes while you prepare topping.
• For topping, combine all ingredients and mix to combine and let rest for 15 minutes til slightly frothy.
• Once the rolls have risen a bit and the topping is frothy, spread a generous layer on the rolls, trying to use all the topping in a thick coat on top and sides of rolls. Let rise for another 20 minutes. Bake at 375F for 25-30 minutes, until well browned. Let cool completely before serving.
• *** YOU CAN USE YOUR MIXER OR HAND MIX THIS.

TIGER BREAD (DUTCH CRUNCH ROLLS)

Steps:

• Combine milk and water in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave in 10-second intervals until just warm to the touch, or 100 degrees F (38 degrees C). Add sugar and 1 package yeast to the bowl and stir together. Let sit for 15 to 20 minutes before using.
• Pour flour and salt into a mixing bowl and stir together with a fork. Make a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture and melted butter. Stir with the fork until the mixture comes together to form a shaggy dough, 1 to 2 minutes. Switch to your hand and knead in the bowl until a ball of dough is formed.
• Transfer to work surface and knead until a very smooth, soft, elastic ball of dough forms, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Transfer into a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat.
• Stir rice flour, sugar, salt, vegetable oil, sesame oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons yeast, and 1/4 cup warm water together in a small bowl. Add more water if needed to form a thick, but spreadable mixture. This needs to be thin enough to spread over rolls without deflating them, but thick enough not to all run off on to the pan. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside until needed.
• Transfer risen dough to a work surface and press out all the air while rolling into a short, fat tube shape. Divide into 6 balls of dough.
• Shape each ball by pulling and pinching the dough at the bottom to form a smooth skin over the top surface of the dough ball. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Cover with a clean, dry tea towel, and let rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
• Uncover rolls and use a small spoon to carefully spread the topping mixture over each one.
• Bake in the center of the preheated oven until rolls are golden brown and the tops have cracked about 20 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack and allow to cool to room temperature before serving.

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/4 cup warm water and 2 teaspoons yeast in a large bowl; stir until yeast is dissolved. Stir in 2 1/2 teaspoons sugar. Let stand until yeast forms a creamy foam, about 10 minutes.
• Sift 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup bread flour, and 1 teaspoon salt together in a separate bowl. Stir into the yeast mixture. Add remaining all-purpose and bread flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until dough pulls away from the side of the bowl.
• Place dough on a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Punch dough down and cut into 9 equal pieces. Press down on each piece with your palm and roll against the work surface to form into a ball.
• Place balls of dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover with greased plastic wrap; let rise until puffy, 40 to 50 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine rice flour, 1 cup warm water, vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons sugar, 2 tablespoons yeast, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl to make topping. Let rest for 5 minutes.
• Spread topping thickly over tops and sides of the rolls.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

DUTCH CRUNCH ROLLS RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• 1. In a bowl combine yeast, water, milk and sugar. Stir to dissolve and let sit for about 5 minutes (The mixture should start to bubble or foam a bit and smell yeasty). 2. Add in vegetable oil, salt and 2 cups of flour. Using the dough hook attachment or a wooden spoon, mix at medium speed until the dough comes together. 3. Add remaining flour a quarter cup at time until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl,(For me I only used 1 more cup of flour, that's 3 in total). 4. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 4 minutes, until smooth and elastic. 5. Place in a lightly greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise for 1 hour, or until doubled (or more) in size 6. Once the dough has risen, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and divide it into 6 equal portions (if you'd like to make rolls) or 2 equal portions (if you'd like to make a loaf) (using a sharp knife or a dough scraper works well). Shape each into a ball or loaf and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet (try not to handle the dough too much at this point). 7. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 15 minutes while you prepare the topping. 8. Coat the top of each roll or loaf with the topping as described above. While the original recipe recommends letting them stand for 20 minutes after applying the topping, I got better results by putting them directly into the oven. 9. Once you've applied the topping, bake in a preheated moderately hot 380ºF/190°C/gas mark 5 for 25-30 minutes, until well browned. Let cool completely on a wire rack before eating. Directions for Topping 1. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and beat with a whisk; beat hard to combine. The consistency should be like stiff royal icing - spreadable, but not too runny. If you pull some up with your whisk, as shown below, it should drip off slowly. Add more water or rice flour as necessary. Let stand 15 minutes 2. Coat the top of each loaf or roll with a thick layer of topping. We tried coating it with a brush but it worked better just to use fingers or a spoon and kind of spread it around. You should err on the side of applying too much topping - a thin layer will not crack properly. 3. Let stand, uncovered, for any additional time your recipe recommends. With the Soft White Roll, you can place the rolls directly into the oven after applying the topping. With the Brown Rice Bread, the loaves should stand for 20 minutes with the topping before baking. 4. When baking, place pans on a rack in the center of the oven and bake your bread as you ordinarily would. The Dutch Crunch topping should crack and turn a nice golden-brown color. Storage & Freezing Instructions/Tips: Store as you would any bread - in a bread box, a paper bag, or loose plastic wrap. Both varieties suggested are best in the first couple of days. The loaves or rolls can also be frozen in plastic - simply toast to reheat.

Steps:

• For the rolls:.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer combine yeast, water, milk, sugar, and oil. Gradually add in the flour and stir until moistened. Add in the salt. Fit the mixer with the dough hook attachment and mix on medium speed until the dough comes together in a smooth elastic ball, about 5 minutes. If the dough is unbearably sticky, add in more flour 1 tablespoon at a time. The dough can also be kneaded by hand.
• Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl and cover. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface and divide into six equal portions. Shape each portion into a tight ball and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Cover and let rise while you prepare the topping.
• Make ahead: At this point the dough can be made ahead of time by covering tightly and refrigerating for up to 24 hours. Remove and let come to room temperature. If two fingers pressed into the dough leave indentations it's ready.
• For the topping:.
• In a large bowl combine all the ingredients and let rest, covered, for 15 minutes, or until frothy.
• Make ahead: Store the topping in a covered but ventilated container in the fridge for up to a week. Let come to room temperature before using.
• Spread a generous layer of the topping all over the rolls, maintaining a thick coating. You should use almost all of the topping. Let rise uncovered for another 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Bake the rolls for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
• *Rice flour is a must for the topping in this recipe. It can be found in most grocery stores with other gluten-free flours and products.
• You can also substitute active dry yeast for the instant yeast at a 1:1 ratio in this recipe. It must be proofed by combining it with the warm liquid ingredients in the dough for 5 minutes before proceeding.
