Whole-wheat cloverleaf rolls

12 Servings

Quantity Ingredient
2 tablespoons Sugar, divided
1 pack Dry yeast
¼ cup Warm water, 105 to 115 degrees
cup All-purpose flour, divided
1 cup Whole-wheat flour
½ teaspoon Salt
¼ cup Warm 1% low-fat milk, 105 to 115 degrees
1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
1 Egg
Vegetable cooking spray
1 tablespoon Margarine, melted

Dissolve 1 teaspoon sugar and yeast in warm water, and let stand 5 minutes.

Place remaining sugar, 1-¼ cups all- purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, and salt in food processor, and pulse 2 times. With food processor on, add yeast mixture, milk, oil, and egg through food chute; process until dough leaves sides of bowl and forms a ball. Process an additional minute (dough will be sticky).

Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic (about 5 minutes); add enough of remaining flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, to prevent dough from sticking to hands. Place dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85 degrees), free from drafts, 1 hour or until doubled in bulk.

Punch dough down; cover and let rest 5 minutes.

Coat 12 muffin cups with cooking spray. Divide dough into 12 equal portions. Divide each portion into 3 pieces; shape each piece into a ball.

Dip balls in melted margarine; place 3 balls in each muffin cup. Cover and let rise 45 minutes or until doubled in bulk. Uncover dough; bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until browned. Yield: 1 dozen (serving size: 1 roll).
