In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, instant yeast, and salt. Stir together to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Add 100 grams of the pumpkin seeds, reserving the rest for topping, to the flour mixture and stir well.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add warm water, olive oil, egg, and vinegar.
Using a wooden spoon or a dough hook attachment on a mixer, combine the ingredients until they form a rough dough.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl, turning it once to coat the surface with oil.
Cover the bowl with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until the dough has doubled in size.
Once risen, punch down the dough to release any air bubbles and divide it into 8 equal portions.
Shape each portion into a roll by rolling it into a ball and flattening slightly with your hands.
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit).
Place the rolls onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper, cover them loosely with a cloth, and allow to rise for another 15-20 minutes.
Brush the tops of the rolls with a bit of water and sprinkle the remaining pumpkin seeds on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your sugar-free pumpkin seed rolls!
