Use high heat
Bake your bread rolls in a preheated oven at a high temperature, around 220°C (430°F). This encourages a crispy crust while keeping the inside soft and fluffy.
Steam for crustiness
Create steam in the oven during the first few minutes of baking by placing a shallow pan of hot water at the bottom of the oven. This helps to develop a crusty exterior.
Allow for rising time
Ensure that the dough has sufficient time to rise. A well-risen dough will have better texture and flavor. Consider doing a long, slow rise in the fridge overnight to enhance the taste and crustiness.
Crusty bread roll FAQs
How do you get crusty bread?
To achieve crusty bread, bake at high heat and create steam in the oven by placing a pan of hot water at the bottom. This helps form a crisp, golden crust.
How do you keep bread rolls crusty?
To keep bread rolls crusty, store them uncovered at room temperature. If you need to store them longer, reheat them briefly in the oven to restore the crust's crispness before serving.
Why has my crusty bread gone soft?
Your crusty bread may have gone soft due to moisture absorption from the air. To maintain its crispness, store them uncovered at room temperature. You can also reheat the bread rolls in the oven to regain the crusty texture if needed.
