These nutty, moist buns are made with oat bran and potato flakes. Enjoy them as dinner rolls or as sandwich buns.


   3 1/2 to 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
   1 cup mashed instant potato flakes
   1 cup instant nonfat dry milk powder
   1 cup oat bran
   2 teaspoons salt
   2 packages active dry yeast
   2 1/2 cups water
   1/4 cup shortening
   3 tablespoons honey
   Margarine or butter, melted


In large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, potato flakes, dry milk, oat bran, salt and yeast; blend well. In small saucepan, heat water, shortening and honey until very warm (120 to 130°F.). Add warm liquid to flour mixture; blend at low speed until moistened. Beat 3 minutes at medium speed. By hand, stir in an additional 1 1/2 to 2 cups flour until dough pulls cleanly away from sides of bowl.

On floured surface, knead in remaining 1 to 1 1/2 cups flour until dough is smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Place dough in greased bowl; cover loosely with plastic wrap and cloth towel. Let rise in warm place (80 to 85°F.) until light and doubled in size, 45 to 60 minutes.

Grease cookie sheets. Punch down dough several times to remove all air bubbles. On floured surface, roll out dough to 3/4-inch thickness; cut with floured 2- to 2 1/2-inch round cutter.* Place 2 inches apart on greased cookie sheets. Cover; let rise in warm place until light and doubled in size, about 30 minutes.

Heat oven to 375°F. Uncover dough. Bake 12 to 16 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheets; place on wire racks. Brush tops of warm rolls with melted margarine. Serve warm or cool.

*TIP: For sandwich-sized rolls, cut dough with floured 3-inch round cutter. Makes about twelve 3-inch rolls.
