Source of Recipe


Cooking with Paula Deen, November/December 2012



List of Ingredients



• 1 cup warm milk (105° to 110°)
  
• 5 Tbsp sugar
  
• 1 Tbsp active dry yeast
  
• 1/2 cup softened butter
  
• 1 large egg
  
• 3/4 tsp salt
  
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
  
• 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  
• 2 Tbsp heavy whipping cream
  
• 1/4 cup melted butter
  






Instructions



1. In a medium bowl or glass measuring cup, combine milk, sugar, and yeast. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes or until mixture is foamy.
   
   
2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, combine softened butter, egg, and salt. Add yeast mixture, beating at low speed until smooth. In a medium bowl, stir together whole wheat flour and all-purpose flour. Gradually add flours, beating at medium speed until a smooth and elastic dough forms (dough will be slightly sticky).
   
   
3. Spray a large bowl with nonstick cooking spray. Form dough into a ball, and place in a greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover, and let stand in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
   
   
4. Spray a 13- x 9-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Divide dough into 24 equal portions. Form each portion into a ball and place in prepared baking pan. Brush evenly with cream. Cover, and let stand in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, for 35 to 45 minutes or until doubled in size.
   
   
5. Preheat oven to 350°. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Brush evenly with melted butter. Cool in pan on wire rack.
   
   Makes 2 dozen.
