Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary)
- 1 cup warm water (about 110°F)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 egg (for egg wash, optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, yeast, salt, sugar, and rosemary. Mix well.
- Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Stir until a rough dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour as needed.
- Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place them in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Cover the rolls with the towel again and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
- (Optional) Beat the egg and brush it over the tops of the rolls for a golden finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- For extra flavor, try adding minced garlic or grated Parmesan cheese to the dough.
- You can also substitute the rosemary with other herbs like thyme or oregano for a different twist.
- For a sweeter roll, consider adding a tablespoon of honey to the dough.
