Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Pumpkin seeds
• 1 cup Warm water
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 unit Egg
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 0 Extra flour for dusting

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, dissolve the sugar in warm water. Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the water and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until frothy.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Mix well.

Step 3

Add the frothy yeast mixture, olive oil, egg, and milk to the flour mixture.

Step 4

Stir the ingredients together until a rough dough begins to form.

Step 5

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.

Step 6

Gently knead in the pumpkin seeds until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.

Step 8

Once risen, punch down the dough to release excess air.

Step 9

Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a round roll.

Step 10

Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are spaced apart.

Step 11

Cover the rolls with a damp cloth and let them rise again for about 30 minutes, or until they have doubled in size.

Step 12

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 13

Once the rolls have risen, bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.

Step 14

Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
