Preparation:
Mix water, sugar and yeast; let stand until foamy. Cool milk to lukewarm, then add rest of ingredients. Stir in 3 cups whole wheat flour to make a thick paste. Beat with spoon; let stand 1-3 hours until light and high. Then add white flour as needed to make stiff dough. Knead for 10-15 minutes until smooth and elastic. Let rise until double. Punch down and knead again.
Roll on greased board into golf ball size and put 9 balls to a pie pan. Let rise and bake until golden brown. These are melt-in-your-mouth delicious and receive many compliments. Can also be made into cinnamon rolls. |
