Best Whole Wheat Cottage Cheese Dinner Rolls Recipes

WHOLE WHEAT COTTAGE CHEESE ROLLS

Steps:

• In large bowl, combine 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup whole-wheat flour, yeast, brown sugar, salt, and baking soda. Mix well.
• In saucepan, heat water, cottage cheese, and butter until warm (butter does not need to melt).
• Remove from heat and add eggs to the liquid mixture.
• Combine dry and wet ingredients, blend at low speed until moistened, beat 3 minutes at medium speed.
• By hand, gradually add all of the whole-wheat flour and enough of the all purpose to make a firm, non-sticky dough.
• Knead until smooth and elastic - 5 minutes or so.
• Place in greased bowl, flipping to grease top. Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled. This takes roughly an hour.
• Punch down dough and divide into 24 pieces. Form these into balls and place in greased muffin cups.
• Cover and let rise until doubled, another 45 minutes.
• Bake in an oven preheated to 375 for 12-15 minutes.

COTTAGE CHEESE ROLLS

Steps:

• Blend together cottage cheese, margarine, flour & salt (I often use a potato masher for this). Form into a ball and chill dough overnight in a sealed container. (This is so the dough isn't so goopy and sticky & makes it easier to handle and roll out later).
• Divide into four parts. Take one part at a time and roll dough into a circle on a lightly floured surface (about 10-12 inches in diameter). Cut into 12 wedges and roll up each wedge (start with large end) to form croissant shape.
• Bake at 350F for approximately 20 minutes or until you notice nice golden brown spots forming (this is the cottage cheese). Alternatively, you can freeze them and bake them at another time. Personally, I find that I actually like them better when they've been frozen. For some reason, when you make them fresh, they turn out a little differently. You also don't really need to thaw them out before baking for more than a few minutes.
• Frost with icing. Now, the icing is actually the part that makes these so good! The rolls themselves are not sweet at all and really only transform into a dessert once the icing is added. The icing happens to also be one of those things that I don't have a recipe for and sort of just "wing it". It's maybe roughly a cup of icing sugar, maybe 4 tablespoons of milk, and several dashes of cinnamon. You can experiment with the amounts until you get something you're happy with.
• These are best served fresh and warm out of the oven and I like them with a nice cold glass of milk!

• 5. Take the dough out of the mixing bowl and place it in a greased bowl. Leave to rest until double in volume.
• 6. When the dough is risen, divide it into 16 small balls.

• 9. Meanwhile heat the oven to 400 F.
• 10. Bake the dinner rolls for 20-25 minutes (if using a cast iron bake for 20 minutes) or until light brown and the smell of fresh baked bread takes over your kitchen.
