These rolls are so easy to prepare, can be made with whichever flour you want and are loved by kids! What more can you ask for?
This dough works with any type of flour, but use some white flour for best results. I’ve done half white, half whole wheat, or half spelt. Each batch came out delicious.
For easy shaping, roll out the dough and cut out circles using a glass. Use the bits that are leftover in between the circles and tuck them under the rolls. They’ll give them extra height and after baking you’ll love breaking off those pieces of fresh delicious goodness.

Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups warm water

- 12 cups flour (see notes above for choosing a flour)
- 2 tablespoons salt
- ⅓ cup oil
- 1 egg, beaten, for egg wash
Instructions
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, dissolve yeast in water. Add juice and sugar. Add flour, salt, and oil, mixing on low speed for 5-10 minutes. Let dough rise for 1 hour, form rolls and let rise another ½ hour. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Brush with egg. Bake for about 30 minutes, until golden brown.

What can you sub for apple juice ? Would water work ?
Soy milk is great, makes for a very fluffy roll but water would also work – they’d be hamotzi then.
what makes these mezonos rolls?
This was a hit recipe i used half white and half whole wheat flour
i was out of apple juice so i mixed half grape juice with half water for the juice part
that it should have enough juice to stay mezonos!
If I do all water as I want them to be Hamotzi would I need to add more sugar?
