YOGURT DINNER ROLLS

Its back to bread baking. Yesterday we had a simple mixed vegetable with yogurt dinner rolls. Yogurt dinner rolls are very soft.

Have them with a veggie or just plain with butter. Either way they taste good. My daughter loves have them halved, buttered and browned on hot griddle.

We enjoyed these with a generous spread of  marmalade in the end.

Ingredients

1 cup whole wheat flour

1 cup all purpose flour

½ cup yogurt

2 tablespoons honey

½ tablespoon instant yeast

1 teaspoon sugar

½ tablespoon canola oil (any neutral oil will do)

½ tsp salt

½ cup warm water (can vary according to need)

Method

Add sugar to warm water and add yeast. Mix well and cover. Let it rest for fifteen minutes. It will turn frothy.

Add honey, oil and yogurt. Mix well.

Add this mixture to flour mixture. Knead well for about six to eight minutes. The dough should be soft and smooth. Add more warm water if needed.

Lightly oil a bowl, transfer the dough to the bowl, cover with a cling film or a damp towel and leave the dough for ten minutes.

Knead the dough again for five minutes.

Pull out small balls of the dough. Roll them to make oblong rolls. With a knife make vertical cuts on the rolls. Arrange on the greased loaf tin keeping some distance between them. Cover and keep in a warm place for one hour till they become double in size.

Bake in a pre heated oven at 180 degrees C for 20 to 25 minutes or till well baked and golden.

Remove from the oven and brush the tops with butter. Cool on the rack.

My notes : if you are using active dry yeast, let the dough rise for an hour or till it becomes double its original size. Punch and knead again for five minutes. Shape the rolls, cover them and keep them to rise for 20-25 minutes before baking.
