True Wholemeal Rolls With Grains Recipe

Name: True Wholemeal Rolls With Grains
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 200 g grain (I mix steel-cut wheat, rye, linseed, sunflower and pumpkin seeds); 300 ml water; 50 g butter; 600 ml milk; 50 g fresh yeast; 200 g natural yoghurt or 200 g cottage cheese; 2 teaspoons sea salt; 2 teaspoons sugar; spices (optional, e.g. ground cumin, aniseed); 1200 g flour (I mix 500 g wholemeal spelt, 500 g wholemeal rye, 200 g white wheat flour)

Servings: persons

1
Heat grain blend and water in a small pot at high temperature, let boil for approximately 4 minutes.
2
Add the butter to the grain mix, let cool down.
3
In a big bowl, mix flours, spice, salt and sugar, and make a dip in the middle.
4
Crumble fresh yeast in the dip, cover with joghurt/cottage cheese, cold milk, add lukewarm grain mix and combine dough.
5
Dough will be very moist and sticky at this point and you will not be able to make a ball or the like.
6
Don't be deterred: when rising, the grains and flour will soak up the excess water.
7
Cover bowl with a clean kitchen towel and put in the fridge overnight to rise slowly.
8
The next morning (or + 1 more day, works just as well), form the rolls, dip bottoms into sunflower or pumpkin seeds, put on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
9
Cut little stars in the top, dust with flour, -- -- decorate.
10
If you have the time, cover again with the kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
11
If you don't have time, skip this step.
12
Bake rolls for 30 minutes at 200C.

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.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

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.
