Ingredients

  • 400 g Strong white bread flour
  • 7 g Sachet of fast action yeast
  • 2 tsps Salt
  • 2 tsps Golden caster sugar
  • 275 ml Tepid water
  • 2 tbsps Olive oil
  • 2 Sprigs of rosemary
  • 2 tbsps Milk
  • 2 tsps Poppy seeds
  • 250 g Camembert

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, add the bread flour, yeast, golden caster sugar and salt. Mix well and make a well in the centre.
  • Pour in the tepid water and olive oil, gradually mix with a wooden spoon until dough starts to form.
  • Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about ten minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  • Place the dough into a lightly oiled mixing bowl, cover with cling film and set aside to prove for 45 minutes or until it has doubled in size.
  • Take the dough out and knead it again to knock all of the air out of it.
  • Cut the dough into 9 equal sized portions and roll each one into a smooth ball.
  • Place the balls in a circular pattern on a lined flat baking tray. Slice the top off of the camembert and place it in the centre of the rolls, leaving a little gap between to allow them to expand.
  • Set it aside to prove for another 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 220℃.
  • Brush each bread roll with milk, then sprinkle over some poppy seeds.
  • Scatter over some rosemary leaves then bake for 12-15 minutes.
  • Remove it from the oven and leave it to sit for 5 minutes.
  • Tear the bread rolls apart and dip them in the runny camembert.
