Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Whole wheat flour
- 1 packet Instant yeast
- 150 milliliters Warm water
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 100 grams Turkey bacon
- 100 grams Reduced-fat cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Skim milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and salt. Add the instant yeast and mix well.
Pour the warm water and 1 tablespoon of olive oil into the flour mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough into a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
While the dough is rising, cook the turkey bacon in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until crisp. Once cooked, chop it into small pieces.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently and roll it out into a rectangular shape on a floured surface.
Brush the remaining olive oil over the dough. Sprinkle the chopped turkey bacon and reduced-fat cheddar cheese evenly over the dough. Add black pepper and dried oregano.
Carefully roll the dough from the long side to form a log, sealing the edges as you go.
Cut the rolled log into 8 even pieces and place them cut side down on the prepared baking tray.
Brush each roll with skim milk to add color to the crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy your delicious low-fat bacon and cheese rolls!
