Ninja Foodi Yeast Rolls Recipe (2024)

FAQs

Why are my homemade yeast rolls tough? ›

Too much flour, or not the right kind, could be to blame. Dough made only from flour with a high or even average amount of protein (like bread flour or all-purpose flour) can become tough from overmixing. Protein gives bread structure in the form of gluten—the more you mix and move the dough, the more gluten you get.

Works great! Received this ninja cooker as an early Christmas gift this year and it has a proof setting. I wasn't sure I'd ever use it but it came in handy when I needed it and it worked great!

Cooking time for air fryer bread can vary depending on the size of your loaf and what temperature you set your air fryer. For a medium-sized loaf, we'd recommend 200°C for around 15 minutes and then 180°C for 25 minutes. Keep a close eye on your bread, check it frequently and adjust cooking time as necessary.

Well it's simple, bread flour has an increased amount of protein or more gluten which results in a lighter, fluffier dough which produces a less dense finished product. All-purpose flour can be used for bread but bread flour is always better if your goal is a “fluffier” bread.

The shortening makes it easier to roll out, while the butter adds both flavor and flakiness. But shortening doesn't behave like butter in recipes. It has a different melting point and it changes the texture of things like tea bread and cookies. It also doesn't have the delicious creamy flavor of real butter.

Putting too much yeast in bread dough will make it double in size very quickly during the bulk ferment and even more quickly during the proofing of your loaves. As long as you don't let the dough more than double in size at either stage, you should get a reasonable loaf of bread.

The Ninja Foodi features a “Bake/Roast” function that is perfect for all your baking needs. This function allows you to set the temperature and cooking time for your baked goods, giving you precise control over the baking process.

After a few attempts, I have finally succeeded in baking the perfect bread in the ninja! At first, my loaves resembled bricks with zero rise – hard and inedible. It wasn't until I realised that the heat from the ninja came from the top, resulting in a crust forming too quickly, that I began to make progress.

Using the Proof Function

The Proof function maintains a warm environment useful for rising yeast. Use for dough. To speed up bread proofing.

What temperature do you bake bread? ›

Pop the loaves into a 375º oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. The loaves should be golden brown. If you want to be sure they're baked through, use your thermometer to check the internal temperature of the bread. You're looking for about 185º.

Add Sugar

As a result, sugar improves the bread's taste, structure and texture. Yeast also eats up sugar to produce carbon dioxide, which raises the dough and makes bread fluffy.

Your Bread Doesn't Have Enough Gluten

Once these proteins become moist, they create stretchy molecules that give bread dough its elasticity. Gluten helps bread maintain its shape and produces the "crumb" (or texture). If your bread does not have enough gluten, the crumb will not come out as expected.

Yeast is not fresh Yeast has an expiration date, and, after that date, will not be as effective. Yeast should be stored in a cool, dry place. Yeast is too hot Yeast may have been dissolved in water that was too hot, or the liquid ingredients in the recipe may be too hot, causing the yeast to die.

The usual reason why bread becomes too dense is due to using flour with low protein content. When your loaf is spongy and heavy, you might have also put too much flour into it or made the dough in a cooler or too warm setting.
