Whole-grain bread rolls
It is sometimes difficult to find bread made without refined flour and free of animal-derived ingredients, such as eggs, milk, butter or certain additives like E471, which may come from plants or animal fat. It is therefore useful to have a simple recipe for making our own bread quickly, without a bread maker.
Unlike white bread, these wholemeal rolls are rich in complex carbohydrates, which allow the body to obtain energy gradually over several hours. They also provide more nutrients because they are made with flour obtained by grinding the whole grain (wholemeal flour).
Wholemeal bread is therefore richer in vitamin B1, vitamin B3 and, of course, fiber, and also provides more vitamin B2, vitamin B6 and zinc.
For all these reasons, this type of bread helps maintain blood sugar levels, improves the assimilation of the grain’s carbohydrates and amino acids, and protects the intestinal lining.

- Step 1We put in a large bowl all the ingredients except water. The yeast is crushed with your fingers so that it melts well when you pour water. We mix all these ingredients with our hands.
- Step 2We add the water little by little and stir continuously with a spoon until a dough forms.
- Step 3When we have achieved a uniform mixture, knead in the bowl with your hands and leave covered with a clean cloth for an hour to rest.
- Step 4After this time, remove the dough from the bowl, place it on a flat surface with a little flour, and knead it a little more (for about 10 minutes). Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 175 °C.
- Step 5Once kneaded, we give it an elongated shape and we take pieces and give them a rounded shape to make the rolls. We will prick them with a fork so that they cook well inside.
- Step 6We take a baking tray, put vegetable paper on it and place the rolls. We introduce the tray in the oven at half height and heat for 15 minutes above and below controlling that they do not burn.
- Step 7After this time, we take them out of the oven and let them cool.
