Ingredients
Ingredients
all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups (unbleached, for mixing)
whole wheat flour
2 1/2 cups (for mixing)
baking powder
6 teaspoons (for leavening)
salt
2 teaspoons (for seasoning)
olive oil
4 tablespoons (divided between dough and garlic sauce)
eggs
2 (beaten)
water
1 1/2-2 1/2 cups (adjust as needed to form dough)
butter
2 tablespoons (melted for garlic sauce)
garlic powder
1 1/2 teaspoons (for flavor)
oregano
1 teaspoon (dried, for flavor)
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a 24-count muffin tin or line with baking cups.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until the mixture is uniform and free of lumps.
3
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the olive oil. Gradually add 1 1/2 cups of water to this mixture, blending well.
4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon or spatula. If the dough is too dry, add small amounts of water until a slightly sticky dough forms, making sure there is no dry flour left in the bowl.
5
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 2-3 minutes until smooth.
6
Divide the dough among the muffin tin sections, filling them so that the tops of the rolls rise just above the rim. Only fill as many sections as you have dough.
7
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown with a firm outer crust but soft inside.
8
While the rolls are baking, prepare the Garlic Sauce by whisking together the olive oil, melted butter, garlic powder, and oregano in a small bowl until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no large lumps.
9
Once the rolls are out of the oven, generously brush the Garlic Sauce over the tops while they are still hot to ensure maximum flavor absorption. Allow them to cool slightly before serving.
