Butternut Squash-Oatmeal Rolls
Anyway, today, we're going to try to put a dent in the butternut squash. Full Belly Farms, the CSA that sends me this box, thinks that I have more uses for butternut squash than I really do. So this time around, I am going to bake it into a roll.
This recipe used only white bread flour so I upped the ante a little and added some whole wheat flour. What resulted is a solid but surprisingly springy roll that made the whole house smell that perfect afternoon, just baked bread smell.
The goal is to still have enough of these left over come dinner time so as to eat them with soup. But dinner time is a long ways off. Anything could happen.

Butternut Squash-Oatmeal Rolls
Adapted from The Complete Cooking Light Cookbook
Yield:
15 rolls
Ingredients:
1 package dry yeast (about 2 or 2-1/4 teaspoons)
2/3 cup warm water (body temperature or a little warmer)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 1/2 cup bread flour (divided)
1 cup whole wheat flour (divided)
2/3 cup mashed cooked butternut squash (about 1/2 medium)
1/8 cup molasses
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3/4 tablespoon salt
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon quick-cooking oats (divided)
Cooking spray
1 tablespoon water
Instructions:
1. Dissolve yeast in warm water and sugar in a small bowl or glass; let stand 5 minutes. Combine yeast mixture, 1 cup bread flour, 1/2 cup whole wheat flour, squash, molasses, oil and salt in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer at medium speed for 2 minutes or until smooth. Stir in 1/2 cup oats and 1/2 cup bread flour and 1/2 cup whole wheat to male a moderately stiff dough.
2. Turn dough out on a floured surface. Kneed until smooth and elastic (about 10 minutes), adding enough of remaining flour, 1/4 cup at a time, to keep dough from sticking to hands. Place dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top. Cover and let rise in a warm pace, 35 minutes or until doubled in size.
3. Punch dough down;; cover and let rest 5 minutes. Divide and shape the dough into 15 balls. Place in a 9-inch round or square cake pan coated with cooking spray. Brush the rolls with 1 tablespoon water; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon oats. Cover again and let rise in a warm place for 25 minutes, or until doubled in size.
4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake for 20-22 minutes or until browned.
