Multigrain Buns / rolls with Spelt Rye Kamut Sorghum Barley. vegan burger buns or dinner rolls. soy-free recipe

You can use other flours that you have, or use more of the available ones. The water absorption is different for each flour, so you might need to add a few Tablespoons more water, or more flour. Mix flours and yeast mixture for a minute, If the dough appears too sticky, add flour, if too dry and crumbly, add water and knead again. After kneading for a few minutes, it should be a soft, somewhat sticky dough and not stiff or not batter-y sticky.

Time for soft freshly baked bread again. These rolls are small-medium pull apart and have a lot of different grains. Spelt, Rye, Kamut, Sorghum, Barley whole grain flours, all in one bun. Yes, there is a whole lot of whole grain hidden in these buns. And they are not dense or cardboard. 🙂 I always add some fruit or veggie to the bread. Like this beautiful Pumpkin Wheat loaf or this Grape Sandwich bread with whole grains. I still have a Mango bread in the drafts..:)
I decided to keep these buns in the neutral territory. The recipe has variation options listed if you would like to make them savory or sweet. How do you like your bread?

These buns can be eaten as is with some hummus, non dairy butter(yumm), extra virgin olive oil, PB and J, nut butters, with soups and more. They are also very sturdy to make burgers. The size on the pictured buns is more for a snack slider. You can make about 4-5 larger burger buns with the dough.

Steps:
In a bowl, add warm water, yeast and sugar. Mix well and let sit for 10 minutes or until frothy.

Add the flours, salt, wheat gluten and oil or yogurt.

Mix with a spoon until well combined, then knead for 2-3 minutes. Use more bread flour if needed to make a soft not too sticky dough.

Spray water on top, cover with towel and let sit for 1.5 hours or until doubled.

Using 2 or more Tablespoons bread flour on your hand and on the dough, punch it down and knead for half a minute. Divide into 6-7 equal portions and roll into balls.
Place balls half an inch away from each other on parchment lined sheet. Spray water on top.

Sprinkle Sesame seeds or other seeds of choice on top.
Cover with towel and let rise for 15 minutes.
Bake at preheated 365 degrees F for 25 minutes.
