Whole Wheat Dinner Roll Recipe – Bread Machine

Here is a simple dough recipe for dinner rolls our family really enjoys.  I love that it is easy. 

Whole Wheat Dinner Rolls 

2 cups flour

1 cup wheat flour

¼ c sugar

2 ½ tsp. yeast

1 tsp. salt

1 ¼ cups warm milk

1 egg

2 Tbs. melted butter 

Select the dough cycle.  Place dry ingredients in pan and select start.  Add milk, butter and egg.  Once dough forms a smooth ball (you may have to add a little flour or water depending on humidity) close lid and allow cycle to run completely. 

Once finished remove dough from machine and knead lightly on a floured surface.  Dough should be smooth and not be sticky.  Butter a 9” X 13” pan.  Pull off pieces of dough and shape into balls about the size of a golf ball.  Line dough balls up in pan, cover lightly with a dish towel and place in a warm, draft free area.  Allow dough to raise until doubled in size, approximately one hour. 

Bake rolls in a preheated 400° oven for 15 to 18 minutes.  Remove from oven and brush tops with butter.  Makes about 2 dozen rolls. 

Serve these up with butter and homemade jam.  Sure to please!
