Name: Rosemary And Thyme Spent Grain Flour Dinner Rolls
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 6 cups Wet Spent Grain (left Over From Beer Brewing); 1 cup Whole Milk; 1-1/2 cup Unsalted Butter; 2 cups White Unbleached Flour; 1/2 Tablespoons Salt; 2 Tablespoons Active Dry Yeast; 1/4 cups Sugar Or Honey; 1 whole Egg; 1 teaspoon Cut Fresh Rosemary; 1 teaspoon Cut Fresh Thyme

Servings: persons

1
Day one: Dry wet grain my placing it in large rimmed cookie sheet in a 200 F oven with door ajar. Allow it to dry for 6-8 hours depending on grain. You can also let it dry overnight in the oven with heat off.
2
Day two: In a food processor or coffee grinder, grind up dry grain until it resembles flour. Note: This recipe calls for 1 cup spent grain flour, however if you can not get spent grain, 1 cup of a blend of barley and whole wheat flour can be substituted.
3
In a saucepan heat milk with butter until scalded, just before the boiling point when small bubbles form at the edge. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
4
In a large bowl add flours, salt, and yeast. Set aside.
5
Once milk is cooled to warm, not cold, add honey or sugar (I use honey), egg and herbs. Mix to combine. Then mix the egg mixture into the flour mixture and knead until smooth and elastic. (For the kneading part I often use the bread maker on dough setting.)
6
Cut dough into 12 parts and roll each into a ball. Place rolls on a cookie sheet and allow to rise for 1 hour.
7
Heat oven to 350 F. Once rolls have finished rising, put pan into the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
