Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, molasses, warm milk, melted butter, and yeast. Stir until well incorporated to form a sticky dough. Let rest for 5 minutes to activate the yeast.
  2. Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and knead gently for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Shape into a ball for rising.
  3. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm area for 1-2 hours until doubled in size.
  4. Punch down the risen dough and divide into equal portions, shaping each into a roll. Arrange rolls in a greased baking pan.
  5. Cover with a clean towel and let rolls rise for 30-45 minutes in a warm spot.
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake rolls for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
