Homemade Slider Rolls and Sandwich Loaf

Ingredients

• 2 cups Warm water (Warm)
• 1 tbsp Active dry yeast
• 0.25 cup Honey
• 2 tbsp Butter (Melted for the dough; additional butter is used to finish the baked bread, but no amount is stated.)
• 2 tsp Salt
• 5 cups Bread flour
• Avocado oil spray (For greasing the bowl; amount not stated.)
• Butter (For greasing the baking pans and brushing on the baked rolls and loaf; amount not stated.)

Steps

1. 1

   Combine the warm water, active dry yeast, and honey in a mixing bowl and stir. Let stand for 10 minutes, until the yeast blooms.

2. 2

   Add the melted butter, salt, and bread flour to the bloomed yeast mixture.

3. 3

   Mix with a dough hook until the dough forms and begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl; this indicates it is close to ready.

4. 4

   Remove the dough from the hook. Grease a bowl with avocado oil spray, place the dough in it, and turn it to coat. Cover and let rise for at least 1 hour and no more than 2 hours.

5. 5

   Punch down the risen dough, then remove it from the bowl and divide it between the loaf and rolls, or shape it all as desired.

6. 6

   For the sandwich loaf, roll a portion into a roughly rectangular shape without pressing or handling it more than necessary. Roll it up, tuck in the sides, and place it in a buttered loaf pan.

7. 7

   For the rolls, cut the remaining dough into portions of approximately equal size. Shape each portion into a smooth-topped ball, pinching the underside closed, and place the rolls in a buttered baking pan.

8. 8

   Cover the shaped dough and let it rise for about 45 minutes, until puffed.

9. 9

   Bake in an oven at 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for about 20 minutes; the sandwich loaf takes about 30 minutes total, or 10 minutes longer than the rolls.

10. 10

    Brush the baked rolls and loaf with butter, then enjoy.

Notes

The source does not specify how many rolls to make or how to divide the dough between rolls and loaf. It says to grease the baking pans but does not give a quantity; the transcript identifies butter for the pans and for finishing the baked bread. The loaf is described as ready 10 minutes after the 20-minute rolls, while the written description gives about 30 minutes for the loaf.
