Quick Bread Bowls Recipes

BREAD BOWL RECIPE - THE EASY WAY!

Steps:

• Pre heat oven to 180c (350f).
• Slice the top off the bread rolls using a serrated knife and set these "lids" aside.
• Using your fingers, scoop out the centre of the roll and reserve for another use (making your own breadcrumbs!).
• Combine the melted butter (4 tbsp), crushed garlic (2 large cloves), salt (if using) and finely chopped parsley (1 tbsp if using) in a small bowl. Using a pastry brush, brush this butter mixture around the inside of the rolls, plus both sides of the lids you set aside earlier.
• Sprinkle the grated parmesan onto the cut side of the lids (these will be garlic bread dippers) and around the inside of the rolls. Tilt the rolls slightly as you go, the parmesan will stick to the butter.
• Place the bowls and lids (cut side up) onto a lined baking tray and bake for 20 minutes or until golden.

ITALIAN BREAD BOWLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
• Add salt, oil and 4 cups flour to the yeast mixture; beat well. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well with an electric mixer at medium speed after each addition.
• When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 6 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes.
• Punch dough down, and divide into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a 4 inch round loaf. Place loaves on lightly greased baking sheets sprinkled with cornmeal. Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, until doubled in bulk, about 35 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). In a small bowl, beat together egg white and 1 tablespoon water; lightly brush the loaves with half of this egg wash.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Brush with remaining egg mixture, and bake 10 to 15 more minutes or until golden. Cool on wire racks.
• To make bowls: Cut a 1/2 inch thick slice from top of each loaf; scoop out centers, leaving 3/4-inch-thick shells. Fill bread bowls with hot soup and serve immediately.
