Sweet Coconut Bread Rolls
Equipment
Ingredients
SWEET ENRICHED DOUGH
- 1 cup (250 g) milk (Warm)
- 4 tbsp (60 g) butter (Softened)
- 4 cups (500 g) bread flour
- 1/2 cup (100 g) sugar
- 1 Tbsp (15 g) active dry yeast
- 1 egg (Beaten)
- 2 tsp (10 g) salt
COCONUT FILLING
- 3 Tbsp (45 g) butter (Softened)
- 3 Tbsp (45 g) sugar
- 2 egg yolks
- 3/4 cup (70 g) unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 drop of Green Food Coloring
EGG WASH
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tsp milk
Instructions
SWEET ENRICHED DOUGH PREPARATION
- In a small sauce pan, bring the milk and butter to a warm temperature. It should feel nicely lukewarm. Set aside.
- Place the flour, sugar and active dry yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk together to sift the dry ingredients for about 30 seconds.
- Add the warm milk mixture, egg and sea salt. Mix with a dough hook for about 2 minutes on the second lowest setting of your standmixer.
- Increase speed to the next highest setting and mix for another 5 minutes. Your dough is ready once it holds together and no longer sticks to the sides of the bowl.
- Scrape the dough out onto the Roul'Pat™ and knead lightly into a ball. Place it in a clean bowl, cover with a plastic wrap and let it rise for about 2 hours at room temperature or 1hr30min in a turned off preheated oven (100F/37C). It will double in size.
COCONUT FILLING + ASSEMBLY
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the softened butter, sugar, egg yolks and Coconut. Add one drop of green food coloring. Mix well.
- Spread the Coconut Mixture (not too thick) over the middle third of the rolled out dough.
- Fold over one third and spread your Coconut Mixture again.
- Fold over the last third and gently roll out again to size it into a rectangle. Now slide your Roul'Pat™ onto your perforated tray, gently fold the sides and place it in the refrigerator to let the dough harden for about 30-45min.
- Then, take your dough out of the refrigerator, slide your Roul'Pat™ back onto your working station, roll your dough into a bigger rectangle. And cut into 10-12 equal rectangles.
- Take one section and cut into 3 lengths joined at the top. Do a 3 strand plait. Pinch the ends together. Then, roll up like rolling up a cinnamon roll to make a ball shape.
- Place your Silpain® Baking Sheet on the top of your Medium Perforated Baking Sheet.
- Place your rolls (well apart) on your Silpain® and either let them rest for another 30min at room temperature or place them back in the refrigerator (covered) overnight, which is what I usually do.
- Once ready, remove from the regrigerator about 30mins to one hour before you want to eat them.
BAKE!
- Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
- Mix the egg yolk and milk together and brush the rolls over.
- Bake for 15 minutes at 350F/180C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your rolls from 12min)
- Once your rolls are out of the oven, let them cool down for about 10min. Then, slide them onto a serving plate. Serve and Enjoy! Bon Appétit!
