Scottish Bread Rolls

The experimentation and excitement continues. Who knew you could get excited by a bread roll? Forgive me - I'm a newbie remember. I haven't tried using white flour or making white bread so I thought I would start small, half a roll recipe and see what happened. I made these four wee things yesterday. The recipe is here: http://www.thebreadkitchen.com/recipes/scottish-morning-rolls-recipe/

I thought they looked a bit pale so left them in for a few minutes more. They tasted fantastic. I am a recently lapsed vegetarian, so of course it had to be good dry cured smoked back bacon I filled them with. Here's a slightly wobbly crumb shot. I promise I'll get better. (There is an indelible little blue/black scratch on my phone's camera lens, so try and ignore it if you find it - on the top right roll above) ;)

I bet these were gone in no time! They look ideal for sandwiches and I bet they taste great. Thanks for sharing them with us.

They went in a flash, Cathy. They were scrumptious. I'll be making a big batch next time. They freeze beautifully, supposedly. Currently, I don't even have space for one in my freezer. I'll happily pop them in my friend's freezer this week as I cat sit. Hope you are well!
