Recipe Summary

  • Prep Time: 15 minutes
  • Cook Time: 35 minutes
  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Servings: 10 rolls
  • Cuisine: Healthy
  • Course: Bread
  • Calories: 120 per roll

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (250 ml) warm water
  • 1 teaspoon (5 g) baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 ½ cups (400 g) rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a blender, grind the rolled oats into flour. This step is key for achieving the right dough consistency.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, warm water, baking powder, salt, eggs, and olive oil. Mix until you have a soft, doughy consistency. It should hold together but not be overly sticky.
  4. Shape the dough into rolls using your hands. Try to make them as uniform as possible for even baking.
  5. Allow the formed rolls to rest for 15 minutes. This helps the dough to set and makes shaping easier.
  6. Place the rolls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, spacing them a little apart.
  7. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Recipe Notes

  • For added flavor, consider mixing in some seeds, like pumpkin or sunflower, into the dough.
  • Ensure the water is not too hot; it should be just warm enough to help the dough rise but not cook the eggs.
  • Resist the urge to open the oven door too early, as this can lead to uneven baking.
