I think something has gone wrong for me with these rolls. I left them in the bowl to rise for 45 mins and nothing! I then put it in a 'keep warm' oven for 10 minutes but still nothing. After the second knead the dough didn't fall out cleanly either. I am persevering regardless. They are having their second rise now. Fingers crossed they will be OK to have with our Potato soup.

Well, I am pleased to say that the rolls rose in the oven and were very nice. I will certainly do this recipe again to see how they were supposed to be.

Am wondering if anyone had any luck with making this from 50% spelt flour and 50% spelt grains (milled)? I tried it but failed miserably... I then tried 300g bakers flour and 200g spelt flour and it turned out ok.. The dough was slightly sticky and took a little effort to clean it out from the bowl and it turned out pretty crusty but it tasted great!

Will have to keep practicing I think :)

I made these rolls this morning and wow, they are amazing! My family have eaten them all so I've just made another batch of dough up and I'm about to put it into the oven in a loaf tin to make it as a loaf of bread. Any ideas as to how long it might take in the oven?

I have noted that a rustic loaf (not in a tin), is shaped into an oval shape, pressed out a little then folded into a curl like the rolls.  It is baked for 30 minutes, removed from tray and placed back on the rack for a further 3 minutes Thermo Mrs

Thanks for that JD, I will give it 30 minutes and get it out and see how it looks. Is there a way to know whether the dough inside the loaf is cooked or not? I've never made a loaf of bread before but would I be right in assuming I can use my cake tester (skewer type thing) in the same way I test to see whether cake is ready?

These are by far my favourite rolls! They are so nice. I'm making these today to show off my cooking abilities to my dad who is staying with me for a few days...  ;D

This is my go to read recipe. I use it for a farmhouse or and free form or rolls or pizza  and it never fails .

I take it off  the pan or out of the pan and put iron the rack for,the last 5 minutes. When. It is brown and sounds hollow it is done.

No a skewer does not do it.
