Recipe Added:  10/30/2011
1/2 cup warm water
3 pkgs dry yeast
1 Tbsp white sugar
2 cups quick cooking oats
½ cup flax seed
½ cup sunflower seeds
2 cups whole wheat flour
4 1/2 cups warm water
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 Tbsp salt
2/3 cup vegetable oil
8-10 ¼ cups bread flour
In a mixing bowl place ½ cup warm water, Tbsp of sugar, ¼ cup of bread flour, and yeast. Stir together gently. Allow to proof for five minutes. In five minutes, it should be bubbly and noticeably larger in size.

Add all other ingredients except bread flour. Beat for about a minute with electric mixer, until well combined. Slowly add bread flour two cup at a time, mixing well with a dough hook after each addition (can use regular paddle if you don’t have a dough hook). Add enough flour so that the dough forms a ball and pulls away from the sides. This will usually be anywhere from 8-10 cup. Dough will be sticky.

Place dough in LARGE oiled bowl and turn to coat. Cover with dish towel and let sit in a warm spot for 45 minutes to an hour, until doubled in size. Pull off 1 ½ inch balls of dough and place on baking sheets lined with waxed paper or parchment paper which has been sprayed with cooking spray. Cover and seal well and freeze until firm. Remove from sheets and place in zipper seal bags, returning to freezer immediately.

To bake, remove desired amount of dough balls from freezer. Place each dough ball in a greased muffin cup. Cover with dish towel and allow to rise in warm place until doubled in size. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes, or until browned and done.

To bake rolls from unfrozen dough (the day you make the dough), place dough balls in greased muffin cup. Cover and allow to rise for about an hour or until doubled. Bake as instructed above.

Advanced Preparation
This recipe makes about 75 rolls. When dough is prepared, place rolled balls on greased cookie sheets. Cover well and freeze, then remove and toss in zipper seal bags and return immediately to the freezer. When you need rolls, take them out and place them on a greased cookie sheet or in greased muffin cups, cover with a towel, and allow to rise in a warm place until doubled in size. Bake as directed for warm and delicious dinner rolls.
