Onion roll

Cookinero 17 Apr 2025

Onion roll baked in the oven is a lean pastry made from yeast dough. Due to the fact that a large amount of onion is used in the preparation of the filling, it turns out very juicy. This dish is an excellent addition to tea or any first course. It can also be used instead of bread. The recipe for an onion roll is quite simple. The main thing is that the dough rises well. To do this, it is important to use sealed yeast and pay attention to expiration dates.

How to cook Onion roll

Step 1

Onion roll

Knead the dough. Pour warm water into a deep bowl. Add sugar, vegetable oil and salt. Pour in the yeast. Stir. Gradually add flour, stirring constantly. Place the dough on a table sprinkled with flour. Knead for 5-6 minutes until it becomes elastic and smooth. Cover with a clean towel and leave in a warm place for 1.5 hours.

The recipe is already vegan as written, using vegetable oil and no animal products. Just confirm your yeast and sugar are vegan-friendly if following strict guidelines.
Yes! After kneading, cover the dough tightly and refrigerate overnight. Let it come to room temperature (about 1 hour) before rolling and baking.
