To prepare these fluffy and aromatic rolls, start by gathering all the necessary ingredients. You will need 500 g of flour, 50 g of sugar, 10 g of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 200 g of yogurt, 100 ml of oil, and one egg for brushing. Make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature to facilitate the rising process and achieve an even texture.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix these dry ingredients well to ensure the baking powder is evenly distributed. Then, make a well in the center of this mixture, where you will pour the yogurt mixed with the oil. Beat the yogurt together with the oil in a separate bowl until fully combined. These two ingredients will provide moisture and a pleasant flavor to your rolls.
After pouring the yogurt and oil mixture into the well of flour, start incorporating the dry ingredients by bringing them from the edges to the center. Use a spatula or, if you prefer, your hands to mix. Continue kneading the dough until it becomes smooth and pulls away from the sides of the bowl. If you notice that the dough is too sticky, you can add a little flour, but be careful not to overdo it. The dough should remain soft but not wet.
Once you have obtained an elastic dough, divide it into about 12 equal balls. Shape each ball carefully, making sure not to handle them too much to avoid losing the air in the dough. Place the balls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving enough space between them, as the dough will rise considerably during baking. If you want even fluffier rolls, let them rise in the tray in a warm place for 20-30 minutes, covered with a damp towel.
Before placing them in the oven, brush each ball with a beaten egg diluted with a little water to achieve a golden and shiny crust. Sprinkle seeds on top, such as sesame or poppy seeds, for an extra touch of texture and flavor. Preheat the oven to 185-190 degrees Celsius and bake the rolls for 35-45 minutes or until they are nicely browned.
After removing them from the oven, let them cool on a wire rack. These rolls are delicious both warm and cold, making them perfect to serve with various fillings or alongside a warm soup. Enjoy!
