These yeast rolls don't require kneading, and the make-ahead dough saves you time on the day of your meal. I love the hint of honey, too.
Ingredients:
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1-1/4 cups warm water (110° to 115°), divided
2 egg whites
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cups king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour
2-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
melted butter, optional
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water. In a large bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Add the yeast mixture, honey, oil, salt, whole wheat flour and remaining water. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough all-purpose flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky). Cover and refrigerate overnight.
2. Punch dough down. Turn onto a floured surface; divide in half. Shape each portion into nine balls. To form knots, roll each ball into a 10-in. rope; tie into a knot. Tuck ends under.
3. Place rolls 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 50 minutes.
4. Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Brush with melted butter if desired. Yield: 1-1/2 dozen.
