This is a favorite with my children. They like to eat them with baked beans, and put cream cheese or butter on them. They are a whole grain food.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups bread flour
  • 3 tablespoons dry buttermilk powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

How To Make boston brown rolls

  • Step 1
    Stir together all dry ingredients, including yeast, in a large mixing bowl.
  • Step 2
    Combine molasses and water and heat to 100 degrees. Whisk in egg, then add quickly to dry ingredients.
  • Step 3
    Knead with a dough hook or by hand until until smooth and elastic, working in more bread flour as necessary to prevent stickiness. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
  • Step 4
    Punch down and allow to rest about 10 minutes. Knead a few more times on an oil-coated surface, or in a large greased bowl.
  • Step 5
    Divide dough into thirds, then divide each third into 6 balls. Place one ball of dough into each of 18 greased muffin cups. Cover and allow to rise in a draft-free place about 1 hour.
  • Step 6
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake rolls about 24-28 minutes, until top is firm and rolls sound hollow when tapped. Brush tops with melted butter after removing from oven.
