Yogurt Bread Rolls
I really love this bread! Crispy outside, very soft inside - incredibly soft! I don't buy bread anymore because I can make these perfect yogurt bread rolls at home. The combination of plain yogurt and vegetable oil creates an incredibly tender crumb while maintaining that crispy, golden exterior.
Using the simple "lift and slap" technique, this no-knead recipe creates beautifully bubbly dough - full of bubbles is a great sign! The yogurt adds subtle tang and keeps the bread soft for days. Follow along with the video below to see the exact folding and shaping techniques for these incredibly soft rolls.
