How to make delicious Honey and oatmeal rolls, simple step by step instructions, from start to finish
Ingredients
Method
- 240g / 240mls Water
- 380g / 13½oz Strong white bread flour
- 100g / 3½oz rolled porridge oats
- 70g / 2½oz Honey
- 30g / 1oz Butter
- 2 Large eggs (beaten)
- 8g / 1 tsp Salt
- 10g / 2½tsp Instant/quick action yeast
- Egg wash & Oats for sprinkling
- In a small saucepan put the water on the stove and bring to a boil.
- To a stand mixer add the butter, honey, oats, and salt to the bowl.
- Important: to avoid any evaporation, soon as the water begins to boil, carefully but quickly add it to the mixer bowl, now using the paddle attachment, mix the contents on speed 2 for 1 minute.
- Allow the mixture to cool to 40°C / 104°F before adding the rest of the ingredients.
- With the dough hook attached, knead the dough until it’s all combined, and then continue mixing for 6 minutes.
- In the meantime, grease a large bowl with a little oil.
- After the 6 minutes mixing turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface, flour the dough and form it into ball.
- Place the doughball into the oiled bowl, coating it in the oil, cover the bowl and leave it in a warm draft-free spot for at least 45 minutes, until the dough has at least doubled in size.
- Grease a suitable baking tin, see video for the dimensions.
- After the first rise turn out the dough onto a floured once more and knock it back.
- Divide the dough into 8, 10, or 12 equal pieces, using digital scales ( I do 8 rolls in the video recipe)
- Form each piece into a ball and place them in the greased baking tin, cover the rolls with a piece of lightly oiled cling film/plastic wrap,
- And once again place in a draft-free warm spot for 45 minutes, this time may vary depending on the temperature of the location.
- When there is only 10 minutes left on the rise, pre-heat your oven to 180°C / 355°F or gas mark 5.
- Before placing the rolls in the oven, brush the tops with egg-wash, and sprinkle on a few rolled oats.
- Place the tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow the tin to rest for 10 minutes on a wire rack.
- Remove the rolls from the tin and leave on the wire rack until completely cooled.
- Enjoy.
