These yeast rolls don't require kneading, and the make-ahead dough saves you time on the day of your meal. I love the hint of honey, too.

Overnight Honey-Wheat Rolls Recipe
  • Prep: 30 min. + chilling Bake: 10 min.
  • Yield: 18 Servings
30 10 40

Ingredients

  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 1-1/4 cups warm water (110° to 115°), divided
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1-1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • Melted butter, optional

Directions

  • In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water. In a large bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Add the yeast mixture, honey, oil, salt, whole wheat flour and remaining water. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough all-purpose flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky). Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Punch dough down. Turn onto a floured surface; divide in half. Shape each portion into nine balls. To form knots, roll each ball into a 10-in. rope; tie into a knot. Tuck ends under.
  • Place rolls 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 50 minutes.
  • Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Brush with melted butter if desired. Yield: 1-1/2 dozen.

Have made this twice now, very good rolls. Made into a loaf of bread, this dough is very good as well!

These were the easiest rolls that I have ever made. They were very light and tasty.

I found this recipe just before Thanksgiving and decided to try them. They were a big hit with my family, everyone loved them. Because of the make ahead dough they were easily incorporated into my dinner menu.

I love it, mix it the night before, raise and bake the next day, just in time for dinner. Wonderful.........I have made this twice, first time was great and I shaped them like regular dinner rolls, today, did the same thing but they "sank". What on earth caused this????Anyone know????

I've made it twice when we've had company over, and everyone has loved them. Delicious and love the ease of the recipe.

I made these for Thankgiving and everyone at both celebrations loved them and they were so easy! I did make one change to the recipe using one whole egg instead of 2 egg whites. I mixed the dough Wednesday evening, then traveled out of state with it in the cooler, punched down the dough and used half on Thursday and the rest on Friday. Now it is our Family Favorite!

I enjoy making bread from scratch and so far this is the best recipe I have found. One of the easiest recipes with the best return. Delicious bread. Wouldn't change a thing about it.
