No Knead Crusty Rolls
PLEASE SEE MY METRIC CHART ABOUT THE FLOUR. I recommend an oven thermometer to make sure your oven is hot enough (For the original overnight method, simply switch to COOL water and let the dough rest overnight on the counter top for 8 to 24 hours). ALWAYS AERATE (not sift) YOUR FLOUR BEFORE MEASURING.
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Total Time: 4 hours
Makes: 8 rolls
Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 cups (300-325 g /10 3/4 ounces) bread flour or all-purpose flour (AERATE FLOUR BEFORE MEASURING - See How)
- 1/4 teaspoon (1 g) instant or dry active yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cups hot tap water (up to 130° F)
Instructions:
- In a large bowl combine dry ingredients. Stir in water. Mixture will be thick and sticky.
- Cover with plastic wrap & let stand on counter top for 3 hours.
- After 3 hours (mixture will be puffy and bubbly on top) place dough on a well-floured surface. Using a scraper fold over about 12 times, adding enough flour so it doesn’t stick (about 2 Tbsp).
- Using a scraper cut dough into 8 pieces. With floured hands, shape each into a ball by folding and tucking, like making a drawstring bag.
- Place on parchment paper-lined baking sheet (not wax paper) & cover with a dish towel. Let stand at room temperature for 35 minutes. They will puff up but will not double in size.
- As soon as rolls are covered, start preheating oven to 450° F. Oven must be 450° so use an oven thermometer if possible.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. To re-crisp the next day, preheat the oven to 325° F and place the rolls directly on the oven rack for 10-12 minutes.
METRIC: The standard for weighing flour is 1 cup = 120 grams. But when I weigh one cup I get 125-130 grams. Please decide what works for you.

To Freeze: Once baked & cooled, they freeze beautifully. To re-crisp, place frozen rolls directly on the oven rack in a preheated 325° F oven for 10-12 minutes. They'll be even more crispy than first-baked!
Variation: To make sesame seed rolls, gently brush rolls just before baking with egg white and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

The end result of my 1st time baking theses rolls was excellent.
I did use egg wash and homemade everything bagel seasoning. One batch of rolls is not enough here.
The negative reviews blaming the recipe must have been written by those afraid to admit there own errors. The basic recipe does not need changes. Additions are fine.
I bake 7 days a week and have been doing so for many years. My wife, grand kids, and great grand kids are deeply concerned where they will get home baked goods after I move on to the Big Oven.

My brain twitched and I poured in 2 1/4 cups of water, so I then did some math and doubled the recipe. I used less than half whole wheat, found the dough sticky but followed directions to have well-floured hands and there was no problem. I used parchment paper on baking steel, and they’re great. Thanks Jenny!

I found the dough to be very wet and sticky even after adding some flour. I did use half whole wheat flour, so that may have been why. Tasty, crusty, but hard to form into rolls because it was so wet. I am in a humid climate, so that could be a factor too.

I’ve been making the loaf of bread since the firs week of the pandemic – often twice a week. It was so easy and so good! I tried the rolls today to use as the buns for our Italian beef sandwiches. I just put them in the oven. We will have to eat them even if they are like pancakes. They were so wet even with adding the extra flour while turning the dough. That in itself was a hoot since I just moved and haven’t found my bench scraper – I used the side of a large spatula!I certainly hope they work for our sandwiches tonight, but I don’t hold out much hope.

Do you have any suggestions or will this recipe still work for my needs. I will need a roll about 4 or 5 inches long. Not sure how many I can get out of this recipe.

For St. Patrick’s day dinner I wanted rolls for dipping in Irish stew. I also made a vegan stew for the first time, so I needed something that wouldn’t take a lot of time and had flexibility around baking time. I used 320g and found the dough much stiffer than in your video, so I couldn’t turn the dough with the scraper at all. Next time I will try 310g. The dough was certainly sticky and I needed extra flour to shape them! Happily they puffed up nicely and they tasted great. Definitely a do-again recipe – thanks!

Gluten is the substance that holds bread together together around the holes and lets it rise. Unfortunately the recipe isn’t going to work well if you substitute guten-free flour.

Hi Jenny…I’ve been making these crusty rolls for a few years now; I make them different sizes, usually bigger! The one issue I always have is the rolls sort of ‘exploding’ out of shape when they bake – I pinch the seal really well and I’ve even tried scoring the top but they still end up being weird shapes. Any suggestions?

Hi Liz. Maybe you can help? help? I love this recipe. Tried last night. But my dough was not wet like hers with 1 1/2 cup of water. I added a bit too much to make it moister like hers, but after 3 hrs resting it looked exactly like hers before baking. But the rolls didn’t rise? Was my oven too hot or cold? Why didn’t they rise? Thanks 🙂
I’ve followed SO many of her recipes, but I guess I’m a horrible baker.

This is about the easiest recipe on the planet! It came together in about two minutes and as Jenny says, it is very forgiving. In fact, I realized after measuring the yeast that I used the wrong spoon and added 1/2 teaspoon instead of 1/4 teaspoon. Four hours after that little error, I had eight perfect and delicious rolls. My husband inhaled two right out of the oven and raved about them. These will be part of my regular rotation. Thanks, Jenny!

I think the reason some people are having such a tough time with this is the non-commital to measuring by volume and offering all purpose flour as an option. You’re at nearly 100% percent hydration on this and there is no way all purpose or even most bread flours in the US will be able to hold their gluten structure without a practiced hand and a lot more strength building folds during the rise.

1) I am definitely going to try out your (Jenny can cook) no-knead crusty roll recipe. It seems simpler than another online recipe I just tried, and I hope it ends up in a more open structure and lighter-weight crumb than what I ended up with. The recipe looks promising.
2) The directive “Always Aerate (. n o t . s i f t .) Your Flour Before Measuring” especially the ‘not sift’ part cannot be taken seriously. Flour that sits around for even less than a few hours does lump together, i.e. is denser than the intended for volumetric measurement fluffy form, especially in high humidity. If one insists on volumetric measurements, the amount of flour taken becomes unpredictable . u n l e s s . s i f t i n g . the flour is the first step taken in the volumetric measurements (and no compaction occurs right after).
Measurement by weight tends to be less prone to error, yet also has issues, for sure in truly high-humidity conditions. This is arguably less of an issue than measuring hard-lumped flour by volume. Then of course, one relies on the weight scale to be accurate, meaning being both well-calibrated and precise, a tall order for sure for the well-known and trusted (¿ why ?) dial weight scale. A bit more in line with expectations is the accuracy of many a digital scale, though the number of digits displayed may not in fact correlate with absolute accuracy.
3) Of note: “cover with plastic wrap” invites readers to contribute to wasting away the environment. Nonesuch is needed. Covering the mixing bowl with almost any dinner- or breakfast plate will do to prevent drying out of the dough. The silly plastic wrap dogma serves no real purpose. While shared among online– and on TV– chefs alike, it’s a sad farce that the myth keeps being perpetuated. Meanwhile the oceans are getting loaded up with floating shards of plastic fragments. These fragments last ‘forever’ and do end up filling sea-creatures’ stomachs (including birds’) leaving no room to digest food.Reply to this comment

I couldn’t go to market and had to make bread for a dinner for six same day – made these rolls according to your master recipe and they came out awesome… crusty and soft inside with plenty of taste, texture, and a well aereated dough showed off gorgeous air pockets. BRAVA, JENNY. GRAZIE MILE, CARA!

The 1st time I made them the dough was very sticky, they still tasted pretty good. My Son begged me to make them again. This time I used bread flour and weighted the flour. The dough although slightly stick was much easier to handle. I also used 2 Tbsp. Of flour when folding over the dough.

I have made these rolls many times and always have the same problem: the dough is much too wet. I follow your directions and instead of weighing the flour I aerate and sift, but still I have to add about 3/4 cup or more flour when I try to shape them into a rough ball before dividing..
What am I doing wrong? However, I find that there is no way to ruin these rolls. they always turn out great.
Again, why is dough much too wet to work with?Reply to this comment

Hi Jenny,
I have baked for 60+ years so I am not a novice. I followed your recipe to the T and must say that this was one of the WORST recipes ever. The dough was so sticky that I could hardly handle it. The rolls came out so hard that I could use them as deadly weapons with a sling shot. So very disappointed. I would give this recipe zero stars. Will never make these rolls again.

Mine didn’t rise the first time, and I think it’s cause my water was too cold or I didn’t measure enough, so I read through some comments and someone suggested heating water in a microwave to steam it up and to store it there. I’m a total beginner cook/ baker but I’m slowly learning my oven and kitchen. I realized that my air is quite dry (someone also stated this as a potential problem), so I lightly sprayed the dough with a little water and left it in the microwave overnight. I also don’t use plastic wrap and my bowls have lids but I guess they’re too drafty. I woke up the next morning and the top was slightly bubbly and jiggly, so kinda promising. I continued and shaped, but they didn’t puff while waiting for the oven to heat. I soldiered on and baked them, they rounded out nicely but stayed small. They weren’t too crusty, just browned and looked rock hard BUT, I quickly cut through one cause I was too impatient to see if I ruined them but they were BEAUTIFUL. We ate them all for breakfast. I actually made a double batch almost right after, this time using hot tap water (even though I never use tap water cause I don’t like the taste). I had to use a ziplock bag to seal the bowl and placed it in the steamed microwave. It rose beautifully, it overflowed, and even though it was stuck all over the bag, I just let gravity do its work and it came off clean! They puffed, we ate a batch with soup for dinner and I have an extra batch to enjoy later. So yummy. Sometimes, lack of supplies forces you to do silly things while baking/ cooking so I hope my experience helps someone just like others helped me. Such delicious bread. Thank you for an easy and quick recipe.

Did you check to see if your yeast is ok?

Did you let it rise as directed after you formed the rolls?

My was ready in 5 so I still waited the 30 mins because I thought I should based on your instructions. Lastly, I added 1 tsp of salt even though the recipe said 1/2 tsp. But your video said 1 tsp so that’s why I did that.

This is our family’s main bread…really… I usually will let it sit for 24 hours..no longer…and I use a pizza stone. You can sprinkle some fine cornmeal on your baking pan…or flour…I make this as a whole loaf and bake it for 30 minutes. So easy, so good…and the yeast is such a small amount. During the pandemic yeast was a premium…if you could find it and most bread recipes call for 2 tsp.. so this was a life saver, I gave my friend a Tablespoon of my very dwindling yeast supply and knew with this recipe she could make 12 loaves…

Hi, tried to make these today. Used cold water and left for 8/9 hours. Seemed to double in size and look similar to yours, but didn’t portion out into as larger a sizes. Baked at 450 for 35mins. Bund came out looking good, slightly burnt on bottom. The bigger issue I found was that didn’t come out very fluffy, more dense with small air pockets. Any idea what went wrong?

I made them tonight – with whole wheat flour. I followed the directions well, had a little trouble with the oven, was 450 – the got hotter, so I turned it down, then it was too low, turned it up again – generally was around 450 most of the time. They rose really well – really puffed up! Took them out at 25 minutes, smelled great, crispy crust, little dark on the bottom – BUT – they were too soft inside, thought they were not cooked completely… Crust was chewy and good. Next time I’m trying white flour. Thinking wheat is too heavy.

I have made these bad boys a few times and the fam. just LOVES them! I have made apple in some — excellent used in an eggs benedict with the savory and sweet apple. I cook the apple down and add honey. Made some when I visited my 87 yr old dad and he requested 🙂 raisin with cinnamon/sugar– excellent! I have also made with parmesan cheese in the middle and rosemary! WOW! Fun experimenting with them. Also made it as a loaf. Need to be longer and narrow. GREAT RECIPE!!

Hi Jenny,
Love the rolls. One day pressed for time I did the two hour rolls and found they rise so much better than the three hour. I realize there is more yeast involved, but now I guess I don’t see the point in the three hour since the two hour are amazing!

These rolls are so perfect! I love this artisan style bread. I made these today and serve them with beef stew, SO delicious!! Made exactly as written and served with salted butter, HEAVEN! Super crispy crust and chewy inside. I will be making these a ton in the future! Thank you for a great recipe Jenny!!

Just took these beautiful rolls out of the oven. My husband is devouring one right now. He says they are the best rolls he’s ever tasted. Thanks! I’m going to serve them with my Christmas dinner.

Hello,
Hoping somebody can help me. It takes my oven about 45 min to heat up. Is it ok to keep the dough rolls on the counter for that amount time or it has to be 35 minutes?
Thanks!Reply to this comment

Sara,
Your rolls will be fine waiting 45 minutes to heat up. Enjoy!

If it takes 45 minutes for your oven to reach temperature and you want to limit the rise time to just the 35 minutes, turn your oven on BEFORE you start dividing & shaping the rolls. The time it takes for you to get the rolls ready will probably be about the extra time your oven needs.

What’s the difference when using bread flour vs AP flour in end results?

The protein content. Bread flour has more protein ( gluten) and makes chewer bread.

Can you double this recipe? Or will it not come out the same?
