Instructions

Preparation Note: Feel free to adjust the ratios of white flour and whole wheat flour, but keep in mind that the final bread might not rise as high as the original recipe.
-
-
Add Ingredients: Begin by adding the ingredients to your bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. This step is crucial for achieving the perfect texture and flavor in your rolls.
-
Set Your Machine: Select the “Dough” cycle on your bread machine and set the size to 2 pounds. Allow the machine to work its magic until the dough is fully mixed and kneaded.
-
Preheat Oven: While the dough is cycling, spray two baking sheets with non-stick cooking spray and preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Divide Dough: Once the dough cycle is complete, remove the dough from the bread machine and place it on a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 20 equal pieces; a kitchen scale can be particularly helpful for achieving uniform sizes.
-
Shape Rolls: Roll each piece of dough into a rope approximately 8 inches long. Then, tie each rope into a knot, pressing the ends together firmly to ensure they hold their shape. Place each knot on the prepared baking sheets, end-side down.
-
Rising Time: Cover the shaped rolls with a clean kitchen towel and allow them to rise in a warm place until they have doubled in size. This process typically takes about 30 minutes.
-
Brushing: Before baking, you have a couple of options for adding a beautiful finish to your rolls. Brush the tops with either a beaten egg or milk. Using an egg will create a shiny, golden crust, while milk will result in a tender, golden crust. For a sweet touch, consider brushing the rolls with honey after they are baked.
-
Baking: Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake until the rolls are well-browned, which should take around 15 minutes. Keep an eye on them towards the end to avoid over-baking.
-
Cooling: Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
