Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Warm water
- 0.33 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil (or melted butter)
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 packet Instant yeast (or rapid-rise yeast)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (optional, for shaping)
- 1 tablespoon Butter (melted, for brushing rolls)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, milk, olive oil, and honey. Stir until the honey dissolves.
Sprinkle the instant yeast into the liquid mixture. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes to activate and become slightly foamy.
Add salt and 2 cups of whole wheat flour to the yeast mixture. Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until a sticky dough starts to form.
Gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour, a little at a time, mixing until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and loses most of its stickiness.
Transfer the dough to a clean, lightly floured surface. Knead by hand for 2-3 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough sticks to your hands, sprinkle a touch of all-purpose flour to help shape it.
Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball.
Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between them for expansion.
Cover the rolls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise in a warm spot for 20 minutes. They should double in size during this time.
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown on top.
Remove the rolls from the oven and immediately brush them with melted butter for a soft, shiny finish.
Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with butter or your favorite spread!
