Mini Oat Buns

These are…still kind of a work in progress. So. If anyone finds some delicious ways of improving this recipe, then please do let me know. SmileThese are easily made up in just a short amount of time, and one recipe makes about 7 rolls. They are rather dense/heavy, but I think that’s mostly the fault of the tasty oats.
By the way, I’ve found these are best served hot with lots of honey and butter. Smile

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups All-purpose flour
3/4 cup oats
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt (If you’re sensitive to salt, you might take the amount of salt down a bit.)
1/3 to 1/2 cup buttermilk (I found that 1/3 cup is not quite enough, so play around with it a bit.)
2 Tablespoons honey
2 Tablespoons butter, cut up into small chunks (the original recipe called for oil. I like butter better, but the oil also worked just fine.)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit

Mix together in one bowl the flour, oats, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter, then add the buttermilk and honey, and stir until just combined. Form into biscuit/roll shapes with your hands, about a 1/4 cup of dough in each. You should have about 7 rolls. Place an inch or so apart on a baking sheet covered with a piece of parchment paper, and bake 15 minutes, until tops are very lightly brown. Brush with spreadable margarine or softened butter right away after taking them out of the oven. Enjoy!
