Kaiser Rolls Recipe (Soft Inside, Crispy Outside)

Kaiser rolls are classic crusty sandwich rolls with a tender, fluffy interior and a beautifully shaped top. Perfect for burgers, deli meats, or breakfast sandwiches, these homemade rolls are made with simple ingredients and a touch of patience. The result? Golden, bakery-style rolls right from your oven.

Ingredients

• 1 cup warm water (about 110°F)
• 2¼ tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 2½–3 cups bread flour
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• Optional: egg wash (1 egg + 1 tbsp water), sesame or poppy seeds

Directions

1. In a bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.
2. Add flour, salt, and oil. Mix until dough forms, then knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth.
3. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled.
4. Punch down dough and divide into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball.
5. Shape into Kaiser rolls by flattening slightly and pressing a Kaiser stamp or slicing with a sharp knife in a star pattern.
6. Place rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Cover and let rise again for 30–45 minutes.
7. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Optionally, brush rolls with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds.
8. Bake for 18–20 minutes or until golden brown and hollow-sounding when tapped.
9. Cool on a wire rack and enjoy fresh or store in an airtight container.
