Our hard white wheat berry is perfect for these homemade yeast rolls. The honey gives these yeast rolls a little extra sweetness and makes it very difficult to eat just one.

Our homemade yeast rolls are very light and airy, just like they should be.  Couple that with the extraordinary flavor our freshly milled hard white wheat berry flour brings and you have a sure guarantee for success every time.

These extra delicious homemade dinner rolls are a dead giveaway because they make your entire home smell like an old fashioned small town bakery.  Letting them slightly cool enough to take them out of the pan seems like an eternity.  WARNING - you need to stand back because there is always a stampede to the kitchen.  Whoever thought baking dinner rolls would be so fun and gratifying!  It’s a “kiss the cook” kind of thing!

    I’ve tried several recipes with fresh milled flour and this one really works! Delicious! My husband ate four of them right out of the oven! Thank you Palouse!

    Made these rolls last night at 9600 elevation. Shorter rise times at this elevation, always. Ground my own Palouse wheat (hard white) minutes before. I had to add significantly more flour than the recipe called for, which worried me, but as an experienced bread baker, I knew the consistency I was looking for. (We’re also very dry at this elevation.) Noticed that the recipe called for bread flour instead of the whole wheat listed in the recipe title—perhaps it was that? Long story short, these rolls came out wonderfully. Stunningly moist. I think I might use a stick of butter to lightly rub on the roll tops as they come out, with a wee sprinkle of salt to make them a bit more lovely on top, but then again they have plenty of butter in them. Would make again in a heartbeat. Note: That’s a lot of yeast in a small amount of water, and it is really going to foam, so make sure you use more than a one-cup container (mine overflowed to the max in just 10 mins). I used buttermilk, and set a 3/4 fine setting on my grain grinder. Dough was quite sticky but still passed the recipe’s finger test, so don’t be alarmed.

    Does this dough freeze well? We are traveling for the holidays so I won’t be able to cook at my house and I am looking for ways to minimize using other people’s kitchens. Can I make this and freeze it a couple of days ahead then bake the day of? What would you recommend? I don’t think my in laws have a mixer and they definitely don’t mill their flour.

    Thank you for sharing the recipe. I am trying different recipes and I’m a beginner bread maker. I thought you had to knead the dough until it passes the window test. On this recipe, you only knew for 2-3 minutes? Can you help me understand the difference in kneading times? Thanks

    Did you use fresh ground flour for these rolls? If not do I need to add more liquid per cup of flour?

    Is the butter in this recipe salted or unsalted ?

    @Denise Yes, your bread machine will knead the dough as well as a stand mixer.

    Just recently bought a Nutrimill to grind my own flour and such. And just purchased some wheat berries. And so new to grinding my own flours etc. I would love to try this recipe but I do not have a stand mixer but I do have a bread maker. Would this recipe work on the dough setting of my bread maker. Thinking I may eventually need to invest in a stand mixer but until the
    just wondering if it would work in my bread maker. Thanks

    These rolls are absolutely delicious. I’ve made them several times exactly as the recipe is written. My family loves them more than any rolls I’ve ever made with store bought flour. They’re equally delicious with butter or jam. I can’t recommend the Palouse wheat berries or recipes strongly enough.

    I have been a dedicated bread maker for years. This is a superb recipe! I have been making it every week since I found this website. The amounts for ingredients is well done. You will not be disappointed when you take it out of the oven!
