A bread maker is great for preparing the dough for many recipes including soft rolls (or baps!) These ones are lovely and soft, perfect as a lunchtime roll, or to dunk in some soup.
What You Need
These are the exact ingredients as listed in the recipe guide that came with my Panasonic bread maker.
- 1 1⁄4 tsp dry yeast
- 450g strong white flour
- 30g butter
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 medium egg, beaten
- 250 ml water
Making Them
Place all the ingredients into the bread maker pan in the order listed above. If you have a bread machine with a built in yeast dispenser add it to that.
Select the ‘Basic Dough’ setting on your bread maker.
At the end of the cycle remove the dough from the bread pan and divide the dough into 8 to 10 pieces and shape into baps. If the dough is a little sticky only add minimal extra flour.

Place on a greased baking tray and leave them to prove somewhere warm (around 40°C) until they have doubled in size. Depending on the temperature it may take around 1 hour to 1 and half hours.
Dust the bread rolls with a light covering of flour.
The breadmaker recipe book says to bake them in a preheated oven at 220°C for 15 minutes or until golden brown but I cooked mine at 190°C for 25 minutes. If you place them at the bottom of the oven they will stay softer rather than have a more crusty top.
How To Store Bread Rolls
If you’re not planning on serving all the rolls straight away they can be stored to eat later. I like to pop mine in a plastic lined bread bag like this one and they’ll stay fresh for a few days.
It has a drawstring closing so they stay nice and fresh ready to eat when we need them.
