Ingredients 

  • 10 g Yeast
  • 4 dl buttermilk
  • 1 dl lukewarm water
  • 2 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 200 g Whole wheat flour
  • 400 g wheat flour

Instructions 

  • Dissolve the yeast in water and buttermilk in a mixing bowl.
  • Add sugar, salt, and sesame seeds to the bowl along with about half of the flour and stir well.
  • Add the rest of the flour gradually, making sure the dough is moist but not too runny.
  • Cover the bowl with a lid and place it in the fridge overnight or for at least 8 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C convection.
  • Gently stir the dough, and using two tablespoons, drop about 12 mounds of dough onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
  • You can optionally shape them a bit with damp hands and sprinkle sesame seeds over them.
  • Place the baking tray in the middle of the oven and bake the rolls until golden for about 16-18 minutes.
  • Let the rolls cool slightly on a cooling rack before serving.

Tip

  • The rolls are perfect for lunchboxes, afternoon snacks, and the breakfast table.
