Bread Bowls??

[bizymamaof2]

I want to make some bread bowls... but I don't want to make the bread. I want to use frozen bread dough. I'm thinking its probably easy to do... but I have no idea how to go about this. Any ideas???

I would make these as suggested but using the frozen bread dough.

I never thought about using frozen dough to make them!

Oh, I just take an oven safe bowl (like glass or my old stoneware) and turn it upside down on a cookie sheet--or an upside down muffin pan for toddler sized ones, but just do every other one so they won't touch and cook into each other unless you're just looking to recreate an egg carton for some reason--oil it a bit, drape the dough over it, and bake. I often use a roll and cut type biscuit recipe so I don't have to fuss with rising yeast, so I'm sure frozen would be fine. When they are done they'll be a little dome shaped, so I cut a little sliver off the bottom so they lay flat on the plate. And that's it.

ETA: Oh, sometimes I'll even use the leftover dough to make little dough snakes, braid them and wrap them around the bottom of the dough (top of the bowl) to make a little decorative lip. Or use the cut off sliver from the base and lay it on top of the soup and call it a mini pot pie for the kids.

If you don't really want to make them, just go to a good bakery and get some kind of round loaf to use for the bowl.
