Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 5 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 2-1/4 cups all purpose flour
- 1 package active dry yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1/3 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened

Preparation:
In a large saucepan, combine milk, orange juice, oil, 5 tablespoons butter, and 2 tablespoons honey until butter melts and mixture is warm, about 110 degrees F.In large bowl, combine 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1/2 cup flour, yeast, salt, egg, and egg yolk along with warm milk mixture. Beat with a mixer for 3 minutes. Then add the remaining 1-3/4 cups flour and beat with dough hook for 2 minutes longer. The dough will be very soft and sticky.
Cover bowl and place in warm place. Let the dough rise until light and doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Grease 2-8" round cake pans with unsalted butter or solid shortening or spray with cooking spray containing flour.
Stir down dough, beating for 1 minute. Then drop the dough by tablespoons into a single layer in each prepared pan, forming 10 rolls per pan.
In a small bowl, combine sugar, 2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons honey, and egg white and mix well. Drizzle half of this mixture over the rolls. Then cover the rolls and let rise again in a warm place until doubled in size, about 25-30 minutes. Drizzle remaining topping over rolls.
Then bake in a preheated 350 degrees F oven for 25-30 minutes or until rolls are golden brown. Immediately remove from pans and cool on wire racks. Makes 20 rolls
