Whole wheat and oats rolls

I am not a great bread baker, I give that "award" to my mother in law, Karen, she makes the most soft and moist bread you've tried. 

But I tried this recipe yesterday, and I have to tell you, it was awesome. 

You will need:

1 1/4 boiling water

2/3 cup oats

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup butter (melted)

1/2 cup sugar

1 egg

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast

31/2 to 4 cups of wholewheat flour.

In a large bowl, pour boiling water over oats. Add the melted butter and salt. Let stand until mixture cools to 110 - 115 F. 

Add the sugar, egg, yeast and 2 cups of flour. Beat until smooth.

Keep stirring in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.

Turn onto a floured surface; knead unil smooth and elastic. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.

Roll dough to 1/2 in thickness. Cut with a floured bicuit cutter.

Place 2 in apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled about 1 hour.

Bake at 375 F for 15-20 minutes. Serve warm. 

This recipe makes about 15 rolls.
