Diets This is a super-easy recipe and delicious recipe for whole wheat rolls that I got from my friend, who got it from her sister, etc. It can be pulled together in a matter of minutes, and best of all, it can be hand-kneaded. I have doubled the recipe with great results as well. This recipe is egg-free for those with allergy concerns.
2 tablespoons yeast
1 tablespoon sugar
2 and 1/2 cups warm water
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon salt
6 and 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
egg, beaten, for egg wash (can be omitted or substituted)
everything spice
minced onion
kosher salt
Combine the yeast, one tablespoon sugar, and warm water. Let yeast mixture start to bubble.
Then add oil, remaining half cup sugar, salt, and flour. Knead the dough well.
Place the dough in a bowl, cover it with a towel, and allow it to rise for at least 40 minutes.
Form the dough into rolls, egg and top them as you like.
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until golden, about 25 minutes. Do not overbake.
