Oatmeal Hamburger Rolls

Owning a bread machine has given me a lot of joy. I am not an expert baker, but the bread machine helps me feel like one. I make all kinds of bread, from a simple white bread to something more complicated, like croissant dough, and each time I do, I get more confidence in trying something different. These oatmeal rolls are another bread machine creation and can replace simple hamburger rolls for an extra healthy way to eat.
Ingredients:

1 cup milk
1 tsp salt
3 tbs butter
1 tbs sugar
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
2 cups bread flour
1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast

Brush the top with 2 tbs melted butter

Directions:

Place all the ingredients in a bread machine's pan, except the melted butter. Select the dough setting and press start. When dough has finished the first rising cycle, the machine will make a sound. Turn off bread machine, remove dough from bread pan, and place onto a floured surface. Gently roll dough into an 18 inch rope.

Divide dough into 8 equal pieces.

 Shape each piece into a round ball, flatten slightly, and place onto a large greased baking sheet.

With a sharp knife, cut an X into the top of each roll.

Cover with kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place for another 45 minutes or until double in size.
Preheat oven to 375°. Brush each roll with melted butter and bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Serve warm or split in half and fill with ham, cheese, or any other filling that you like.
