Ingredients
- • all-purpose flour: 3 cups
- • dry active yeast: 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons)
- • warm water (110°F/45°C): 1 cup
- • moringa powder: 2 tablespoons
- • sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil, drained and chopped): 1/2 cup
- • fresh rosemary, chopped: 1 tablespoon
- • fresh thyme, chopped: 1 tablespoon
- • olive oil: 2 tablespoons
- • salt: 1 teaspoon
- • honey: 1 tablespoon
- • egg (for egg wash): 1
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2 In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. Stir in the honey and olive oil.
- 3 Mix in the moringa powder, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, rosemary, thyme, and salt. Gradually add the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- 4 Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place it in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- 5 Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a roll and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Cover and let rest for another 15 minutes.
- 6 Whisk the egg and brush it over the top of each roll. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- 7 Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Serving Suggestions
- • Pair these savory moringa rolls with a light vegetable soup or a fresh garden salad to balance the flavors. For an added touch, serve with a side of whipped herb butter or a dollop of pesto for extra herbaceous notes. These rolls also make a delightful accompaniment to Mediterranean dishes, like grilled fish or a roast chicken with lemon and herbs. Enjoy them as a unique addition to a brunch spread, perhaps alongside a frittata or a quiche.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. To maintain their freshness, you can also freeze them for up to a month. Simply reheat in a warm oven for a few minutes to enjoy them as if they were freshly baked.
