Author Brooke Burks

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Old Fashioned Oats
  • 1/3 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1.5 cups Boiling water
  • 1.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 1/4 ounces Dry Active Yeast
  • 1/4 cup Warm water 110-115 degrees F
  • 3.5 cups All Purpose Flour
  • 1 tablespoon Oil

Instructions

  • Place oatmeal in a large bowl. Pour boiling water over oats and mix well. Add brown sugar, salt and oil and mix well.
    1.5 cups Old Fashioned Oats, 1/3 cup Brown Sugar, 1.5 teaspoons Salt, 1 tablespoon Oil, 1.5 cups Boiling water
  • In a small bowl, dissolve active dry yeast with 1/4 cup warm water. Test temperature of water to make sure it's no lower than 110 degree F and no higher than 115 degrees F. This makes sure yeast will activate as well as remain alive. Allow to stand for 5 minutes or until it blooms and is foamy.
    1/4 ounces Dry Active Yeast, 1/4 cup Warm water
  • Add yeast and water to oat mixture and mix well. Add All purpose flour in stages until a sticky but stiff dough forms. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and shape and knead. Knead for 6-8 minutes until dough is smooth.
    3.5 cups All Purpose Flour
  • Shape dough into a ball and place in a lightly greased bowl, turning to oil all sides of dough. Cover and allow to rise until it doubles in size, about an hour.
  • Punch down dough and separate into 24 balls. Roll balls until smooth and place in a lightly greased baking pan. Cover and allow to rise again for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes until browned. You can drizzle with salted butter and bake a few minutes more to obtain extra browning. Serve warm and enjoy.
