Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Warm water
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 tablespoon Milk
- 0.25 cup Additional rolled oats (for topping)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water and honey. Stir until the honey is dissolved.
Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the water and let it sit for 5-10 minutes, or until it becomes frothy.
Add the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, rolled oats, salt, and softened butter to the yeast mixture. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. Alternatively, you can knead the dough using a stand mixer with a dough hook for 5-6 minutes.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Gently punch down the dough to release the air. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball.
Place the dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced about 1-2 inches apart. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rise again for 30-40 minutes, or until puffy.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Brush the tops of the rolls with milk, then sprinkle them with the additional rolled oats for garnish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
