Try these unique artisan rolls enriched with turmeric, carrots, and sunflower seeds for a healthy, colorful bread experience.
Ingredients
- • whole wheat flour: 3 cups
- • grated carrots: 1 cup
- • warm water: 1 cup
- • active dry yeast: 2 teaspoons
- • ground turmeric: 1 tablespoon
- • sunflower seeds: 1/2 cup
- • olive oil: 2 tablespoons
- • honey: 1 tablespoon
- • sea salt: 1 teaspoon
- • ground black pepper: 1/2 teaspoon
Instructions
- 1 In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water and honey, stirring until the honey dissolves. Sprinkle the yeast over the mixture and let it sit for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes frothy.
- 2 Add the grated carrots, olive oil, turmeric, and ground black pepper to the yeast mixture. Stir well to combine, ensuring the turmeric is evenly distributed.
- 3 Gradually add the whole wheat flour and sea salt to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough begins to form. Incorporate the sunflower seeds into the dough evenly.
- 4 Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic. If the dough is sticky, sprinkle with additional flour as needed.
- 5 Place the kneaded dough into a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
- 6 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 7 Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a roll and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- 8 Cover the rolls with a cloth and let them rise for another 15 minutes. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the rolls sound hollow when tapped.
- 9 Let the rolls cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature.
Serving Suggestions
- • These Turmeric & Carrot Artisan Rolls pair beautifully with a light soup or salad, offering a robust contrast to fresh greens or a simple broth. Serve them alongside a hearty minestrone or a zesty citrus salad to complement their earthy tones. For a cozy breakfast, enjoy these rolls with a spread of avocado or hummus. The creamy texture of these spreads balances the crunch of sunflower seeds perfectly, making for a satisfying start to the day. Pair these rolls with a refreshing herbal tea or a chilled glass of sparkling water infused with lemon or cucumber slices to cleanse the palate and enhance the meal's overall freshness.
Storage Tips
To store these artisan rolls, allow them to cool completely before placing them in an airtight container. They can be kept at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, consider freezing the rolls. Wrap each roll individually in plastic wrap, then place them collectively in a zip-top freezer bag. They can be frozen for up to 2 months. To reheat, thaw them at room temperature and warm in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes to regain their freshly-baked texture.
