Calories 124kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 pkg 1/4-oz active dry yeast (2-1/2 teaspoons)
  • 1-1/2 cups warm water 110F
  • 3 tablespoons coconut sugar or brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2/3 cup plain yogurt
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 4-1/2 to 5 cups white whole wheat flour
  • Melted butter for brushing

Instructions

  • In the bowl of a large stand mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand 5 minutes until foamy, then whisk in sugar, oil, yogurt, and salt until smooth. Add 4 cups flour to mixer, and mix on medium speed, adding additional flour by the tablespoon until dough is smooth and pulls away from sides of bowl.
  • Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead several minutes until dough is smooth and elastic. Place dough in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until dough is doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Punch risen dough down and divide into 18 portions. Roll each portion into a 12-in rope and twist several times. Place twists on parchment paper-lined baking sheets, cover with plastic wrap and let rise 30 minutes until doubled in size.
  • Remove plastic wrap and bake twists at 375F 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and brush twists with melted butter. Enjoy twists warm from the oven!
