Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and instant yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it gets frothy.
-
Add the salt and 2 cups of flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until well combined.
-
Gradually add the remaining flour, ½ cup at a time, until a soft dough forms. You may not need to use all the flour.
-
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
-
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Cover the rolls with a clean towel and let them rise for an additional 30 minutes.
-
Brush the tops of the rolls with the beaten egg and sprinkle them generously with caraway seeds and coarse salt.
-
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
-
Let the Kummelweck Rolls cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
