Bread rolls, white, crusty

White crusty bread rolls are baked bread made with white flour, with a firm outer crust and a softer centre. They mainly provide carbohydrate, along with some protein and fibre. Per 100g, these rolls contain 55g of carbohydrate, 9.2g of protein, 2.9g of fibre and 1g of salt.

Carbohydrate is a source of energy for the body, while protein supports the growth and repair of tissues. Fibre helps maintain normal bowel function. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake, as bread eaten regularly can contribute to the total amount consumed.
