Scandinavian Bread: Siblings

Pull-apart-rolls are called sibling rolls in Finland. So, I named these Siblings. This is an easy and quick recipe for beginners. I promise you, every sister or brother can bake these!

You can follow the recipe or cut the yeast in half (25 g). In the latter case the rise time is longer. It gives the yeast time to work, which improves the flavor of the rolls. 

12 pcs. 

5 dl (500 g) water 

50 g fresh yeast 

2 tsp salt 

0,5 dl (40 g) cooking oil 

3 dl (50 g) oat bran 

10–11 dl (650-700 g) wheat flour 

Dissolve yeast and salt in lukewarm water. Stir in cooking oil and oat bran. Gradually mix in the flour and knead until smooth and elastic. 

Cover with a tea towel and let rise for 30 minutes. 

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it. Roll the dough into a rope and cut it into 12 pieces. Shape each piece into a ball. Line a baking tray with a parchment paper and place the rolls closely together on it. 

Cover and let rise for 30 minutes. At the same time, preheat the oven to 225°C.

Sprinkle with cooking oil and oat bran. Bake for 20 minutes. 

Cover and let cool on a wire rack.
