Whole Grain Dinner Roll Knots
Whole Grain Dinner Roll Knots

homemade rolls tend to be less uniform in shape and size, which is a good thing

modified from Mark Bittman, How to Cook Everything, to be more whole-grain-y healthy and delicious

2 C AP flour
3/4 C dark rye flour
3/4 C whole wheat flour
1 tsp instant yeast
2 tsp salt
1 tbs honey
2 eggs
3 tbs butter
1 C milk + a little extra
poppy and sesame seeds

combine dry ingredients and pulse a few times in the food processor

add one egg, honey, and butter and let run 10 seconds

with the machine running, pour in the milk and let it go 30-45 secs

knead a few minutes, form into a ball, place in a greased and covered bowl, and let rest until doubled (I let it rest for about five hours -- for faster rise, use more yeast, like the 2 tsp Bittman calls for)

deflate and shape into 20 knots (to shape into knots, make each bit of dough into a rope a few inches long and tie it in a knot, and place each one down on the baking sheet with one end sticking up)

brush with egg beaten with a few drops of milk (this makes them glossy and acts as a glue for the topping) and sprinkle seeds as desired

bake 20 minutes at 375 F
