Honey Cloverleaf Rolls image

I love these rolls with those special holiday meals. Honey adds a touch of sweetness to these homemade yeast rolls. And topping off the Honey Cloverleaf Rolls is a mixture of poppy seeds, sesame seeds, and caraway seeds. ** if you don't like caraway salads, use another, such as poppy or sesame seeds

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 c whole milk
3 Tbsp unsalted butter
4 Tbsp honey
1 1/2 c whole-wheat flour
1 1/2 c bread flour
1 1/4 c package rapid-rise yeast
1/2 tsp salt
1 large egg beaten with 1 tbsp. water
caraway seeds, mixed, optional **

Steps:

  • 1. 1. In a small pan over low heat, warm milk, butter and honey until butter has melted and an instant-read thermometer reads 110ºF. In a large bowl, whisk together whole-wheat flour, 1 cup bread flour, yeast and salt. Stir in milk mixture. Beat with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms, adding more bread flour as needed. Dough will be sticky. Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes, adding additional bread flour as necessary to keep dough from sticking. Cover dough with a cloth and let rise for 15 minutes.
  • 2. 2. Mist a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray. Divide dough into 12 pieces. Working with 1 piece at a time and keeping others covered with the cloth, divide into 3 even pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and put into a muffin cup side by side to make 1 cloverleaf roll. Repeat with remaining dough. Cover with a cloth and let rise for 15 minutes.
  • 3. 3. Preheat oven to 425ºF. Brush dough with egg mixture and sprinkle with seeds, if desired. Bake until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from pan and serve.
