Seeded dinner rolls are delicious and nutritious rolls made with a variety of seeds. They are soft in texture and a great alternative to basic dinner rolls or milk rolls. This is a vegan recipe, and you can add whatever seeds you like.
The dough can be kneaded in bread machine or in the Stand Mixer and baked in the oven. Check out this post on how to make dough in bread machine.
Ingredients
Multi seeded dinner rolls requires only a few basic ingredients including bread flour, oil, water, salt, sugar, and yeast. Seeds like pepitas, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, chia seeds, poppy seeds, and sesame seeds. You can skip a few if you do not have all of them.
Instructions
Making seeded dinner rolls at home is very easy. If you use a bread machine, add all the ingredients in the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the bread machine manufacturer. Select and start the dough cycle.
If using a stand mixer, add all the ingredients in the stand mixer bowl and knead with dough hook for about 12 minutes. Shape the dough into a ball and place it into a bowl. Let it rise in a warm place for about 45-60 minutes until it doubles in volume. Check out how to make dough in stand mixer.
Step 1: Gather all the ingredients for seed bread.
Step 2: Add all the wet and dry ingredients into the bread machine pan in order.
Divide the dough into 15 equal parts, about 53 grams each. Shape them into smooth balls by tucking all the edges together to the bottom side. Place them in a baking tray lined with parchment paper and spacing them 1-2 fingers apart.
Cover the tray with a cling wrap or a kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes or until it doubles in volume.
Step 3: Remove dough once cycle is complete.
Step 4: Divide the dough into 15 balls.
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Remove the cling wrap or kitchen towel and then bake the rolls for about 20 minutes until golden brown. Take them out of the oven and apply some butter on top using a basting brush. This gives the buns a nice glaze.
Step 5: Let the rolls rise.
Step 6: Bake at 350°F for 20 minutes.

Equipment
I make this seeded dinner rolls dough in as 2 lb. Hamilton breach Artisan bread machine or KitchenAid stand mixer.
A food scale helps in weighing the flour which gives consistent results. To make the rolls softer and lighter, sift the flour with a sifter.
The rolls are baked in a convection oven. I have used a 13-inch by 9-inches deep casserole baking tray to make 15 rolls. A larger baking tray (15-inch by 11-inch) can be used to make 20 smaller size buns.
Storage
Seeded rolls can be stored at room temperature for 3-4 days in a bread box or an air-tight container.
To store it longer it is best to freeze them in Ziplock bags or freezer safe containers. When you want to use it, you can warm them in the oven for about 15 minutes at 350°F.
Top tip
Weighing flour using a digital food scale while making bread or rolls gives consistent results. Scooping flour out from a bag using measuring cups can add too much flour than needed.
