Crescent
Moon Rolls
- 2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup hot water
3/4 cup milk
1 (1/4-ounce) package active dry yeast or 2 1/2 teaspoons
active dry yeast
1/8 cup warm water, 105°F to 115°F (40°C to 45°C).
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup cake flour
- In a medium saucepan dissolve honey, butter
and salt in hot water over low heat. Pour in milk and heat until
milk is lukewarm; set aside.
- In a small dish, dissolve yeast in warm
water Pour yeast mixture into milk mixture and stir until mixed.
- Fold whole wheat flour and cake flour
into yeast mixture, making a dough thick enough to knead. Knead
until smooth and elastic, adding additional flour as needed.
Cover and put in a warm place to rise until double about 50 minutes.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured
surface; divide in half. Roll each portion into a 12-inch circle
about 1/8-inch thick. Cut each circle into 12 triangular wedges.
Roll up, beginning at base of each triangle, and curve the ends
slightly toward one another to form a crescent shape.
- Transfer to baking sheets, point side
down. Allow to rise again until doubled in size about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C).
- Bake rolls for about 14 minutes or until
golden brown.
Makes 24 rolls.
