How to Make Honey Wheat Brown And Serve Rolls
- In a small bowl, sprinkle yeast and sugar over warm water. Stir until dissolved and let stand for 5 minutes until bubbly.
- In a medium bowl, combine whole wheat flour and 2 cups of all-purpose flour.
- In a large bowl, measure 1 1/2 cups of the flour mixture.
- Add the yeast mixture, shortening, honey, egg, and salt to the large bowl.
- Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until smooth.
- Increase mixer speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes.
- Reduce speed to low and beat in 1 cup of the remaining flour mixture.
- Increase mixer speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes.
- Stir in the remaining flour mixture and enough additional all-purpose flour (starting with 1/4 cup) to form a soft dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic, adding more flour as needed to prevent sticking.
- Shape the dough into a ball, place it in a large greased bowl, turn to grease the top, cover with a clean towel, and let rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead briefly, cover, and let rest for 15 minutes.
- Grease 24 muffin cups.
- Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces. Cut each piece into thirds and roll each third into a ball.
- Place 3 balls in each prepared muffin cup. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 275°F (135°C).
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are set but not brown.
- Immediately remove the rolls from the muffin cups and cool completely on wire racks.
- Store in resealable food storage bags in the refrigerator or freezer.
- **To bake rolls later (from frozen or refrigerated):** Thaw if frozen. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a large jelly-roll pan. Place rolls in the prepared pan and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown.
