Pretty Enough To Sell!


I guess I’m on a bread baking marathon because I’m trying recipe after recipe!! With OU football and Rangers baseball, Mr. Fix-It is reveling in home made soups, chili and bread. Never let it be said that I don’t know the way to a man’s stomach – I mean – heart.


Friday, at Deborah Jean’s Dandelion House Friday Blog Hop, I saw that Candy at Lazy J Bar C Farm had been busy in the kitchen making the most beautiful rolls you ever saw. She sells them at her local Farmers’ Market and they evidently go like hotcakes – no hot rolls.


Candy is a reader here and I follow her blog, so she graciously gave me permission to post the recipe here for you. Of course, I had to try the recipe first and take pictures! The rolls are so easy. And with a ribeye steak and baked potato last night, Mr. Fix-It put away several of these whole wheat delights, happily cheering on the Texas Rangers and watching Nolan Ryan drop the first pitch by former president George Bush.


So here you go. I think you will love the presentation of the rolls and the taste as well!


Buttermilk Whole Wheat Rolls



1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup warm milk
1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 1/2 cups bread flour (I use King Arthur Bread Flour)
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons bread machine yeast OR 1 packet active dry yeast (1 tbsp loose) If using active dry yeast, dissolve it in the warm milk before combining with the remaining ingredients.

In the bowl of a mixer with dough hooks, add buttermilk and then yeast that has been proofed in the warm milk (if using packaged or loose yeast).

Then, add the eggs, salt and bread flour. Lightly mix all ingredients.

Add whole wheat flour one cup at a time. I added a total of 1 1/2 cups and reserved 1/2 cup for flouring my pastry cloth. The dough pulls away from the side of the bowl and is stiff and may not require all of the flour. Do not add too much flour.

Lightly knead into a smooth ball

Pour about a tablespoon of olive oil into the bottom of a bowl and place the dough ball in top side down. Turn the dough ball so that the oiled top is up. Cover with a warm, wet towel and allow to rise until double.

Divide the dough out into 16 equal sections. I used a scale to weigh the dough to make sure each piece was the same.

Form each section into a ball and place 8 each into 9″ round cake pans, seam side down.

Cover each pan with a warm, wet towel and allow to rise until doubled again.

Bake at 375º for 12 – 15 minutes. It helps to rotate the pans from front to back to brown the rolls evenly. Remove to cooling racks immediately.

My contribution to the project was a glaze that I put on as soon as they came out of the oven and went onto the racks. I melted 2 tbsp. butter and 1 tbsp honey. Oh yeah. That was brushed over the tops of the rolls.

And yes….they are scrumptious. Thanks so much, Candy, for giving me a new, family roll recipe!!



Happy Baking!

    I bought some buttermilk today to make these asap. They look perfect and perfectly delicious. Thanks for the printable option on your recipes. I do love looking at the pictures, however.

  6. Thanks Beth!! I have thought about putting the pictures onto the printable option but that would really take a lot of printing!! I guess I could try to offer your choice. Hmmm.

  7. Beth says:

    I made the rolls tonight and must say they turned out really well. About the pictures, I think it’s fine just the way it is. I like being able to print off just the written instructions. I can always go back and look at the pictures on the computer if I need to. Again, the rolls are yummy!
