1/4 ounce dry yeast, one package
1 tablespoon honey
1 1/4 cups warm water (100 to 110)
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
3 tablespoons fresh sage, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
cooking spray

Steps:

Dissolve yeast and honey in warm water in large bowl; let stand 5 minutes.
Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups; level with a knife.

Add flour mixture and oil to yeast mixture; stir until a soft dough forms.
Turn dough out onto a floured surface.
Knead until smooth and elastic (about 8 minutes).
Add enough of remaining flour, 1 tablespoon at a time to prevent dough from sticking to hands.
Place dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top.
Cover and let rise in warm place (85) free from drafts, about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Punch dough down; cover and let rest 5 minutes.
Divide dough into 12 equal portions, shaping each into a a ball.
Place balls 2 inches apart on a large baking sheet covered with parchment. Cut a deep (1/4 inch) X in the top of each roll using kitchen shears or a sharp knife.
Cover and let rise for 30 minutes or until double in size.
Preheat oven to 350.
Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until puffed and beginning to brown.
Remove from baking sheet; cool on wire rack.
