Honey Wheat Rolls

We made these rolls for our first book club meeting when we read "Secret Life of Bees." We ate them with local honey, but they are great with cheese, as sandwich bread, or just plain. --Mark

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups warm milk
1 egg, beaten
2 T butter
1/4 cup honey
3/4 tsp salt
2 3/4 cups bread flour
1 cup wheat flour
1 1/4 tsp yeast
2 T melted butter (optional)

Instructions:

Combine all ingredients, except melted butter, in the bread machine. Use dough setting.

Knead dough an additional 2-3 times. Roll to 3/4 inch thick. Cut with 3-4 inch biscuit cutter. Place on greased cookie sheets. Let rise for about 1 hour, or until doubled.

Preheat oven 350 degrees. Bake rolls for 10-15 minutes. Brush with melted butter if desired. Cool on baking racks.
