Quick Whole Grain Oat Rolls
Quick Whole Grain Oat Rolls use a mix of whole wheat, oat, and all-purpose flours with yeast to create soft, tender rolls that balance hearty whole grain flavors with a light texture. The dough is enriched with butter and milk, contributing to softness and richness. These rolls are brushed with butter after baking for a flavorful crust, making them suitable for sandwiches or as a bread side.

Ingredients
- 3 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast 1 1/2 packets
- 3/4 cup water between 105°F and 115°F, lukewarm
- 1/8 cup sugar
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 cup oat flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3 Tbsp butter for brushing rolls after baking, melted
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, put the water, sugar and yeast. Stir to combine and let sit for 10 minutes until foamy.
- Meanwhile, mix the flours and salt together and set aside.
- Melt the butter, then add the milk and heat gently to about 110°F. You can do this in a saucepan or in the microwave, but use a digital thermometer to be accurate. If it gets too hot, let it cool to the correct temperature.
- Pour the warm milk and butter into the bowl with the yeast, then add about 2 1/2 cups of the flour. Turn on the mixer and mix for about a minute. While the mixer is going, gradually add in enough of the rest of the flour to form a soft dough--- it will start to come away from the side of the bowl. Let the mixer knead the dough on low for about 2 more minutes. It will be elastic and a little sticky.
- Take the dough a put it in an oiled bowl, turning the dough to completely coat with oil. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and set in a warm place to rise, about 20-25 minutes.
- Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and divide into thirds, then divide the thirds into three parts, for a total of 9 rolls.
- Take each piece of dough and form a ball in your hand, stretching corners around to the back and giving them a twist. The top should be domed and rounded. Set each roll in a buttered square baking dish. Cover the dish with a towel and set in a warm place to rise, about 20-25 minutes.Preheat the oven to 400°F. while the rolls rise.
- Bake rolls in preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, until golden.
- Remove from the pan and set on a rack. Brush with melted butter immediately, and sprinkle on a few oats for garnish if you like.
