Today I made the soft rolls with potato flakes. Do you know the mashed potato mix? Exactly that one. I buy it solely for these rolls. The potato flakes keep them soft for days. I usually prepare them for my daughter’s school snack. They’re also delicious filled like a simple sandwich. I usually make a batch and freeze them. I make roll-sized, but this recipe is perfect for a large focaccia to cut into squares later. With this dough, you can make many rolls or focaccias, your choice. You might also be interested in;
