These rolls make great sandwich rolls, or are a great pairing with anything you need some hearty fresh bread with. I like them cut in half and smeared with butter, my kids love them with jam.
If you don’t have a mixer, you can still make these rolls. Don’t be afraid! My rule of thumb when hand-kneading dough is to knead, knead, and then when you think you’re done, knead some more. It’s VERY hard to over-knead when doing it by hand.
I love these rolls. They were perfect. Soft, chewy, sweet, with great texture. A little butter, a shake of salt, and I could make a meal out of these.
Start by placing the water, yeast, oil, egg, honey, & salt into your mixer.

Mix for a little bit until the egg is lightly beaten. Add in the oatmeal and whole wheat flour, and mix for 2 minutes on medium. Start adding in the white flour and keep adding until a soft, smooth dough forms and cleans the side of your mixer. Mix on medium for 2-3 more minutes.
Turn dough out and form into a large ball. Place in a lightly oiled bowl and turn to coat.
Cover and let rise until doubled, or about an hour. Form into small dough balls and place on a prepped baking sheet.
Cover and let rise again until the rolls are doubled, or about 30 minutes.
Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Rub cold butter over the top of the hot rolls right out of the oven if desired.
