Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 3 cups multigrain whole wheat bread flour (or use just whole wheat bread flour)
  • 1 1/4 cups warm water
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp dry yeast

Directions:

  1. In a small saucepan, heat the 1/2 cup whole milk with 3 tbsp sugar, salt and 4 tablespoons butter until the milk is warmed (not hot!) and the butter is almost melted (the butter does not have to melt completely) set aside and cool until lukewarm.
  2. Proof the yeast with 1 tsp sugar in the 1-1/4 cups warm water for 10 minutes until foamy.
  3. Using a heavy-duty mixer, fitted with the kneader attachment, to the bowl add in 3 cups whole wheat flour and 1 cup white flour with warm milk/butter mixture and the proofed yeast.
  4. Mix for 2 minutes, then start adding in more flour if needed to create a soft smooth dough that holds around the kneader blade, knead for 5-8 minutes (adjusting flour).
  5. Remove the dough and let rest 10 minutes on the counter, covered with a clean tea towel.
  6. After 10 minutes, lightly knead the dough into a ball, and then place in a well-oiled bowl.
  7. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size (if you are oven-rising this should take about 1 hour).
  8. Remove and punch down dough.
  9. Shape into 12 balls (depending on what size you make them).
  10. Cover and rise again for 30-35 minutes.
  11. Brush the tops and sides gently using a pastry brush with the egg/water mix, sprinkle with sesame seeds (if using).
  12. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until they are a deep golden brown, and sound hollow when tapped.
