In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine warm water, oil, yeast, and sugar; let rest for 5-10 minutes or until frothy and bubbly (you can also make this recipe without a stand mixer – just use a big bowl, a large wooden spoon, and all your arm strength).

With a dough hook, mix in salt, egg and 2 cups of wheat flour until combined. Then add remaining flour – 1/2 cup at a time (dough will be sticky). Sometimes I need the full 3 ½ cups, sometimes I need less, and sometimes I need even more.

Spray your hands with cooking spray and shape the dough into 12 balls.

After shaped, place on lightly greased cookie sheet and let rest and rise for at least 10 minutes.

Bake for about 10 minutes or until tops are lightly golden.

Ingredients

  • 1⅛ cups warm water (see note below)
  • cup vegetable oil
  • 2 Tablespoons active dry yeast (yes, it really is 2 Tbls)
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • 3-3½ cups white whole wheat flour (more or less; see instructions below)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine warm water, oil, yeast, and sugar; let rest for 5-10 minutes or until frothy and bubbly (you can also make this recipe without a stand mixer – just use a big bowl, a large wooden spoon, and all your arm strength).

  • With a dough hook, mix in salt, egg and 2 cups of wheat flour until combined. Then add remaining flour – 1/2 cup at a time (dough will be sticky). Sometimes I need the full 3 ½ cups, sometimes I need less, and sometimes I need even more.

  • Spray your hands with cooking spray and shape the dough into 12 balls.

  • After shaped, place on lightly greased cookie sheet and let rest and rise for at least 10 minutes.

  • Bake for about 10 minutes or until tops are lightly golden.

Notes

  • For the water temperature: When it comes to how hot the water needs to be for this recipe (and most homemade breads), you want to use the hottest water that you would use to wash your face. If it’s too hot for you to wash your face in, it’s too hot to use for homemade bread. You want it to be warm, but not too hot so that your yeast activates perfectly.

  • The flour that I used for this recipe was White Whole Wheat Flour. You can find it here:https://amzn.to/3EkV6Fi

  • I have not made this recipe using any other kind of whole wheat flour, but I feel like it would work. Just add the flour in a little bit at a time until the dough is no longer sticky.
