How to Make Bread Rolls / Make your own Subway at Home !

[@ellieb3930]

I love how you involve your children in your baking, teaching them as you go. I wish my mother had done the same for me.

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Yeah I'm hoping they'll look after me in my old age haha ... or at the very least refer back to these videos when they're out on their own and do all this stuff with their kids etc 😊

[@cathydonaldson5615]

I just love the look on your children’s faces when you wrap up the Subways 😂❤

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

I know ... somehow that made them "special" haha

[@growtocycle6992]

I love that you find the kids an opportunity to add their own toppings. . I think you could reduce the amount of yeast by 1/2 and maybe give it a little longer to prove, you would get the same rise... Maybe add a little oil, too, as that helps the rise

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Oh never heard of oil helping the rise, I thought it was more to add softness, but of course I could be wrong lol ... yes you're probably right about the yeast, depends on how patient you are 😀

[@cindeed5926]

Those look so yummy! The kids did a great job!

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Yeah they're pretty good (the bread and the kids lol)!

[@lizb1213]

Hi, I absolutely admire and love your no fuss real life videos, they’re very refreshing. I’d just like to know if I could have the written recipe for these rolls by any chance please? Thank you so much.

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Yep sure, I actually write all my recipes down in the description under each video (you might have to select 'More' under the video in the grey description area) :)

trying this out these school holidays in Christchurch :)

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Awesome let me know how you get on! My kids still love them lol

[@nzrabbit77]

@@CheaperWaysNZ they worked out great and the house smelt amazing. Was so cute seeing my wee boy show them in his lunchbox at the playground this morning, proudly saying he made them from scratch

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

@@nzrabbit77 awww love it that's awesome!

[@salenawaaka6258]

Love love love how you price cost the lot. And grabbed some subway wrap!!! I brought some of the griaffe milkshake cups and put the kods smooothies in there for the same reason. Takeaway paper cups. Kids feel like legends. Worth the 25c per cup. And im not scrubbing reuable cups which were left in the car or bag.

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Thanks! Obviously the price might now be out of date but you still get the idea 😊 it's amazing what kids get a kick out of eh lol

[@savedmefromthedepths]

Totally trying this for my boys

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Yay let me know how you get on 😀

[@MustardSeedAdventures]

These look great! We are gonna have to try making these for sure! We have a good no kneed bread recipe we use a lot. It’s good to to put jalapeños and cheddar cheese in it.

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Oh yum - yeah I love no knead bread I make batches of that a couple of times a week too!

[@trinamcewing6232]

Hiya, what temp is the oven on? ❤ can't wait to make these

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

It's 190oC, for 20-25 minutes 😊

[@StupidRobotFightingLeague]

Subway were awe struck by Clint's heroicness.

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Noticed how quickly he downed his compared to the rest of us!

[@StupidRobotFightingLeague]

@@CheaperWaysNZ vanquished.

[@DaveHunt-eh7kj]

Is it ok to half the ingredients. Have you made these with whole meal flour and seeds like your no knead bread or do you just use that recipe and make it into rolls?

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Yeah no reason you can't half the ingredients and make half the amount 🙂 ... I've actually never tried making these wholemeal, but don't see any reason you couldn't replace some of the white flour with wholemeal in this recipes, and seeds would definitely work well in this one too!

[@jalesaisback]

Hi Sarah, are we using self raising flour or just plain?

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

I generally use High Grade flour, but just Plain flour will be fine too, not self-raising 👍

[@jalesaisback]

@@CheaperWaysNZ awesome! I'm off to paknsave after the school run, thank you so much for your quick reply! Have a gorgeous day 💖

[@inkchick2935]

This is my favourite ‘go to’ bread roll recipe! But was wondering - have you tried this dough shaped as buns instead of rolls? Thinking it would make amazing buns but thought would they still turn out the same beautiful texture as the rolls? 🤔

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

That's a big question ... and no I haven't! I have a burger bun recipe that is so good and soft I don't want to mess with it haha ... but I'm guessing these would work just as well in bun format!

[@BobBob-bx3vi]

I have 😊 and it worked just fine, also I have made the bread recipe into rolls and buns as well 😊

[@inkchick2935]

That’s awesome! I ended up just giving it a go and it made awesome hamburger buns! So now whenever I make a batch I do half as rolls, and the other half as buns for the freezer 👌

[@deborahbain9915]

I hope your daughter is feeling better

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Thanks - she's slowly getting there 🙂

[@cdogvlog5557]

Countdown used to sell a pack of 20 bread rolls for 4 dollars. I have pencilled in hamburgers on mondays and on Fridays I have a bread roll with chicken filling and lettuce. I can't remember what the deal is now with bread rolls at countdown but they don't seem as good a deal. I don't think I got time to make my own bread rolls unfortunately.

[@cdogvlog5557]

I do find it mighty strange that you have got 2 kettles.

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

haha - yes one is an electric jug that's plugged if we want to boil water quickly, but during winter I tend to bring out the stainless steel one that we heat on the fireplace when we have it going for some free hot water 😀

[@cdogvlog5557]

@@CheaperWaysNZ oh nice. I am thinking of replacing the woodburner, and making it pay for itself by turning the shed into a dedicated wood drying place. The wood has to dry out for a year. It would not be the sort you can cook on though unfortunately because its one that is built into the wall rather than freestanding. They only just came out with a model that will fit in the space that meets the requirements of being ultra low emission that will fit in the space, so I need to wait a year or so and find out how others who have installed it have found it. A freestanding woodburner is more efficient, but my existing hearth has a lot of character to it.

[@trewilson3315]

I have a feeling someone works(ed) at subway before!! lol

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Nope but certainly visited plenty! 😀

[@trewilson3315]

Cheaper Ways NZ how close was it from the actual bread? I’m tempted to try it

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

@@trewilson3315 It's not exactly like Subway bread, a bit denser maybe ... but it's yummy, and looks the part lol

[@trewilson3315]

Cheaper Ways NZ you have no idea the smile you put on your kids face with that subway paper wrapping haha. Thanks alot

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Awesome - love it! Somehow the wrapper makes it tastier apparently (my kids now sometimes request "Subway" for lunch and actually mean the homemade stuff lol)

[@StupidRobotFightingLeague]

Clint just walked through your shot for my sake eh?

[@CheaperWaysNZ]

Yeah I said the video needed some heroicness ... so he came and made me a coffee. Heroically.

[@StupidRobotFightingLeague]

@@CheaperWaysNZ Even though I don't drink coffee, I'd drink heroic coffee to become more heroic.
