Subway Bread
Soft and fluffy sandwich rolls that capture the essence of Subway bread, perfect for any filling.
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1½ teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 3 cups all-purpose white flour
- 1 cup lukewarm water
- 4 tablespoons olive oil (plus extra for brushing)
- grated cheese (optional)
- Italian herbs mix or oregano (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine instant yeast, salt, sugar, and all-purpose flour. Mix together.
- Add lukewarm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Knead the dough using a stand mixer with a dough hook for about 6 minutes, or by hand for 10-12 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Cover the dough with a damp towel and let it rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 to 1.5 hours.
- Once risen, punch the dough down and divide it into four equal portions. Shape each piece into a rectangle, roll it lengthwise, and pinch the edges to seal.
- Place the shaped rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let them rise again for about 40 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Brush the tops of the rolls with olive oil and sprinkle with grated cheese and herbs if desired.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown. Brush with olive oil or melted butter after baking for a soft crust.
- Let the rolls cool for 20 minutes before slicing and serving.
