Kentish huffkins

(Huffkin, Huffkins)

Huffkins are traditional English bread rolls originating from Kent. These rolls are flat, circular to oval, with a dimple in the center. They're made with flour, water, yeast, and a bit of lard, although modern recipes sometimes call for the addition of milk powder.


Once baked, the rolls develop a pale crust, white crumb, thin crust, and a light and open texture. After baking, the huffkins are traditionally wrapped in a cloth in order to prevent the crust from hardening. It's recommended to fill the hole on top with cherries or jam.
