Cloverleaf roll

A Cloverleaf roll is an American¹ type of bread roll consisting of three separate sections.² It is named after the leaf of the clover plant, which has three lobes.² They are made by placing three small balls of dough in the cups of a muffin tin; as the dough proofs and bakes, the cloverleaf pattern is formed.² After baking, they are easily pulled apart.³ "Cloverleaf roll" refers to a shape, not a specific recipe: many recipes lend themselves to the cloverleaving process.⁴
