I find most 100% whole wheat buns are very dense, and let's be frank, taste like the floor of a barn. This recipe is an adaptation of my Mom's Air Buns #168628, and makes delicious, soft, healthy,and easy to make rolls. I think the unusual addition of vinegar is what makes the difference. Edited to include links to Mom's 100% Whole Wheat Air Loaf in Abm, and Mom's 100% Whole Wheat Air Loaves for those of you who wish to make whole wheat loaves instead of buns...same great taste and texture! Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups warm water |
1/4 cup shortening or 1/4 cup soft butter |
1/4 cup sugar or 4 tablespoons honey |
1 teaspoon table salt |
1 tablespoon vinegar |
2 tablespoons gluten |
4 1/2 cups whole wheat flour (minus 2 tablespoons) |
2 teaspoons bread machine yeast |
Directions:
1. Put water, butter, honey, salt and vinegar in the machine. 2. In the bottom of a one cup measure, put 2 tablespoons of gluten, and then fill the cup with W.W. flour. 3. Put that, and another 3 1/2 cups of flour on top of the liquids. 4. Add yeast to surface, and programme for dough cycle. 5. I make two 9 inch pans of rolls, each with 9 rolls per pan, and let rise until double (the rolls will fill the pans). 6. Bake at 350°F (I use convection bake) for approximately 20 minutes. Rolls will be deeply golden and oh so yummy. |
