Honey Challah Rolls

Honey Challah Rolls Recipe

These rolls are so tasty. They make an excellent addition to your holiday table or any meal. BTW the prep time is a guess on my part because it was a required submission field, and refers mostly to the rising time.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 1/2-4 cups bread flour
  • 2 packages active dry yeast
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup hot water (120 to 130 degrees)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Note: You can save a lot of time here if you have a bread machine that has a manual setting that allows the bread machine to stop after the mixing and first rising and not go into a Bake cycle.
  • Many of the better machines have that option specifically so you can make rolls instead of a whole bread loaf.
  • If so add the above ingredients to your bread machine, remembering to separate one egg and reserve it's egg white for later as explained in step 3.
  • Set the bread machine to the manual cycle so it will mix but not bake.
  • Then after the bread machine is done follow the recipe from step 5 on.
  • In electric mixer, combine 3 1/2 cups flour, yeast, and salt, blending well.
  • Separate one egg; set white aside.
  • Add yolk and remaining egg, hot water, honey, and oil to flour mixture.
  • Mix vigorously, then knead with dough hook for about 6 minutes, adding flour if sticky, until smooth and elastic.
  • Or turn out onto floured board and knead about 10 minutes.
  • Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and damp towel.
  • Let rise in warm place about 30 minutes.
  • Punch down; let rest 5 minutes.
  • Divide evenly; shape into 16 balls.
  • Arrange in greased 9-inch layer cake pan, working from outside in, placing 10 around perimeter, then 5, and 1 in center.
  • Lightly beat reserved egg white and brush over rolls.
  • Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  • Cover and let rise until doubled, about 15 minutes.
  • Bake at 350 degrees about 22 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Serve warm.
