HONEY WHEAT 7-GRAIN DINNER ROLLS

The perfect addition to a comforting meal. These rolls also make great slider or sandwich buns.

 

INGREDIENTS

• ¼ cup honey
• ¼ cup butter
• 1 cup water
• ¾ cup whole wheat flour
• ½ cup Cream of the West Roasted 7-Grain
• 2 packages yeast
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 large eggs – divided
• 2 ¼ - 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour

 

Directions

Combine water, honey and butter in a small saucepan and heat until butter is melted. Remove from heat and cool to 120 degrees.

Combine wheat flour, Cream of the West Roasted 7-Grain, yeast, and salt in a stand mixer.

Slowly add the warm honey mixture then beat at a low speed for 1 minute.

Add 1 egg. Beat for 2 more minutes at medium speed. Gradually add enough flour for the dough to come together into a ball.

Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. (I like to use the dough hook on my stand mixer and let it do the kneading!)

Divide dough into 24 balls. Place dough balls in a lightly greased 13x9 inch pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place (around 85 degrees) for about an hour or until the dough has doubled in size.

Whisk the other egg then brush the egg over the uncooked rolls.

Sprinkle a little Cream of the West Roasted 7-Grain on top.

Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes or until lightly browned.

Cool slightly and brush with melted butter.
