Garlic breadrolls



There's nothing better than eating hot, home-baked breadrolls for breakfast. (Well, maybe eating hot, home-baked bread, but lets save this for later.)

Smell, which fills your home is great, but this garlic butter taste... amazing. You can also skip adding garlic butter and have a regular breadrolls, but who wants that?







Dough: 
 
400 g all purpose flour
1 teaspoon sugar
0,5 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dry yeast
1 cup (250 ml) milk
30 g butter (2,5 tablespoon)

Mix all ingredients together, leave covered for at least 1,5 hour. Dough should double the size. 
Divide for 12 parts. Form into balls, leave covered once again, but this time - for 30 minutes.  

Garlic butter: 

100 g butter
2 garlic cloves
2 teaspoons dry Boar's Garlic

back to school: digestive cookies




Wholewheat, healthy cookies.
They're not so sweet, but you can add more sugar or pour on them some melted chocolate.
Best part? You can eat them without feeling guilty or smuggle something healthy for kids and they won't know it.

Pack as a snack for little ones to school. Or... eat a cookie yourself. With milk. Because, why not?







175 g whole wheat flour
50 g all purpose flour
50 g grounded oat flakes or wheat brans
0,5 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
100 g soft butter
10 tablespoons sugar
4 tablespoons milk

Whisk flours, sugar, salt, wheat/osat flakes and baking soda. Add milk + butter and knead until you will have a ball of dough. Roll out the dough, so it'll be 4 cm thick. Cut with a form (5cm).

Bake at 180 C degrees or 350 F for 10-15 minutes.
