This recipe happened one night when I was making white rolls and I ran out of flour. All I had left was wholemeal flour, and luckily for me, it worked out well.

Recipe provided by:

Allrecipes

Ingredients

100ml (4 fl oz) olive oil
4 tablespoons caster sugar
1 tablespoon salt
450ml (16 fl oz) boiling water
1 1/2 tablespoons dried active baking yeast
5 tablespoons warm water (45 C)
2 eggs
225g (8 oz) wholemeal flour
500g (1 1/4 lb) bread flour

Preparation method

1. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, sugar and salt. Add boiling water and stir to dissolve sugar; let cool to lukewarm.
2. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
3. When sugar and water mixture has cooled, add yeast mixture, eggs, wholemeal flour and 1/2 of the bread flour. Stir in the remaining flour, a little at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
4. Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces and form into rounds. Place the rounds on lightly greased baking trays. Cover the rolls with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 180 C / Gas mark 4.
5. Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes.

    Review: KIRSTY_L

    Made these this afternoon and they turned out great! The only thing i found was i had too much liquid so had to add more flour and i still had spare liquid so didnt use it. I must add that ive never made bread before and found this very easy

    Review: sully

    I have been looking for a wholemeal roll recipe for awhile and this was great. The only thing was that the mixture I found to be too wet and I had to add a nice bit extra of flour to bring the dough together. After that it was great - loved by all. Himself is now taking them to work for his lunch everyday. Making them again tonight. Thanks again for a great recipe.
