Yield 24 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 package active dy yeast
1 cup milk
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 cups whole wheat flour

Steps:

  • 1. In a large mixing bowl, stir together 2 cups of the flour and the yeast. In a medium saucepan, heat and stir milk, butter, honey and salt just until warm (120-130 degrees) and butter almost melts. Add milk mixture and eggs to flour mixture. 2. Using dough hook on electric mixer, beat on low to medium speed for 30 seconds then scrape sides of bowl. Beat on medium high speed for 3 minutes, stirring as necessary. Add remaining whole wheat flour, kneading with dough hook till dough becomes smooth and elastic, adding more all purpose flour if needed. Shape the dough into a ball. Place in a lightly greased bowl; turn once to coat the dough. Cover and let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size (1 hour approx.) . 3. Punch down dough. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough in half. Cover dough and let rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, lightly grease twenty-four muffin cups. 4. Divide each portion of the dough into 36 pieces. Shape each piece into a ball, pulling edges underneath to make a smooth top. Place 3 of the balls into each muffin prepared muffin cup, smooth sides up. Cover the rolls and let rise in a warm place until nearly doubled in size (about 30 min.). 5. Bake in a 375 degree oven about 12 minutes, or until rolls are golden brown. Immediately remove rolls from muffin cups and brush tops with butter. Cool on wire racks.
