This recipe for French Bread Sandwich Rolls is super easy and only uses five (FIVE!) ingredients. Wow. It’s so amazing. I love to make this recipe as a side for Moroccan Lentils or soup because homemade bread is healthier than buying it at the store.

These French rolls are small versions of a larger baguette and my family loves them. Make a sandwich and eat it on this hearty bread or dip it in olive oil or spread with warm hummus.
