These are great and simple Rolls from Southern Living Magazine. I do not claim to be a baker at all, but if I can make these anyone can and I always get rave reviews. The dough can also be used for yummy cinnamon rolls as well.Update: At one point I changed the recipe to canola oil instead of butter and added half whole wheat. Then a friend of mine made it and she substituted applesauce for the butter and she said it turned out great. I made it tonight with the applesauce and she was spot on!

2 cups water
1 cup quick-cooking oats
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine, canola oil or 3 tablespoons applesauce

1/3 cup packed brown sugar
