No Knead Vegan Crusty Rye Rolls

I love bread!  These rolls are quick and easy to prepare and the rest of the time is just waiting.  If you want a no fuss bared, this is it!

Makes 4 large, 6 medium or 8 small crusty rolls.

Waste

Short term waste:

  • Zero
 Long term waste:
  • Flour packaging
  • Yeast packaging
  • Salt container   
  • Sugar package 

Ingredients 

  • 1.5 cup of self raising flour (195g)
  • 1.5 cups rye flour (195g)
  • 2g of instant yeast
  • 1 tsp of salt
  • 2 tsp of caster sugar 
  • 310ml (1.25 cups) of warm water

Method

Step 1

  1. Mix all the dry ingredients together in a big bowl.
  2. Add the warm water a bit at a time and stir until you get a very sticky dough, see figures 1 and 2.
  3. Cover and leave for a minimum of 3 hours (i leave mine overnight on the counter in the kitchen). 

Figure 1, make a well and poo in water.

Figure 2, mix until you get a sticky grey dough.

Step 2

  1. The dough should be puffed up and bubbly, see figure 3
  2. Use a spatula to gentle scrape out the dough onto a work board.  I use a large chopping board that is well floured.
  3. Add more flour on top of the dough.  Use a dough scraper to fold and shape the dough because the dough will be very sticky and you will not be able to use your hands. Get the scraper right underneath the dough and fold it over on its self.  Do this about 14 times shaping the dough as you go so you end up with a large ball.
  4. Cut the dough into 4, 6 or 8 pieces and gently shape them into a roll, see figure 4. 
  5. Heat the oven to 220C.  The oven should be very hot, which will likely take 25 -30 minutes to heat up to the correct temperature.  Use an oven thermometer if you want. 
  6. Grease a baking try with some vegan butter and put the dough balls on it.  Leave the dough balls on the counter covered with a tea towel until the oven is hot enough.

Step 3

  1. Once the oven is hot enough, put the dough balls in the oven on the middle shelve for about 18 minutes. The dough ball should have expanded just a little see figure 6. 
  2. Take the rolls out of the oven and place on a cooling rack see figure 7.

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 11th of December 2023   This is something I have heard of, but never tried before.  Usually, we have traditional Christmas cake in my house, but last year I wanted to try something different and this was it.  Rest assured, I will be having it again this year too! At first, it seems like a lot of effort, but you will soon see that it is straight forward to make and definitely worth it.  However, it will need proofing and the dried fruit will need soaking, which will all take time, so plan ahead.  Notes I used French Brandy Marzipan and so used brandy to flavour the raisins and cranberries. I used almond milk. A good tip is to dust the soaked fruit with a little flour before adding the dough. You have 3 options with the marzipan:  Roll it out  Chop it up Have a thick bar of it running through the centre I soaked the dried fruit in brandy, but you can make it without the alcohol is you wish or use rum instead. I used a silicon baking sheet to save on the

Rum And Raisin Loaf

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 27th of November 2023   Whatever the occasions, this is a great treat to be had.  The rum soaks into the raisins and results in a perfect infusion of flavours. The rum adds flavour to the raisins while the raisins add sweetness to the run.  This beautiful bread as a great bready texture, yet is fruity and warming to the soul. Although it doesn't need it, you can choose to dust it with icing sugar.

The preparation is mega quick because all you have to do is mix it all together and pour the batter in a loaf tin and it is ready to go in the oven. No yeast, so no proofing it is ready so fast and bakes in 45 minutes. The result is a sweet tasting cake that you can cut into slices and eat like bread. Notes Don't beat the batter or it will turn out tough after baking.   If you use Green Ginger Wine, be sure it is vegan.     Ingredients  Dry  300 g of self-raising flour 120 g of dark brown sugar 2 tsp of ground ginger   5 crystallised ginger cut into pieces 30 g of grated fresh ginger 1 tsp of ground cloves 1 tsp of mixed spice 1/4 tsp of salt 1 tsp of baking powder Wet 40 ml of vegetable oil  240 ml of water  150 g (about 4 tbsp) of plan or vanilla vegan yoghurt 50 ml of ginger wine 2 tbsp of dark syrup   Method Add all the dry ingredients to a
