Ingredients:

• 1 packet active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast)
• 1 cup lukewarm water
• 1/4 cup orange juice
• 4 tablespoons butter, cut into chunks
• 3 tablespoons wildflower honey
• 1 cup all purpose flour
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
• 2/3 cup instant mashed potato flakes or 1/4 cup potato flour 
• 1/4 cup nonfat dry milk

Directions:

1. Combine all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. 
2. Mix in mixing bowl until it starts to form a ball. 
3. Knead by hand or with electric mixer and dough hook under the dough is smooth. 
4. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl. Cover the bowl, allow the dough to rise at room temperature until it's puffy (not quite double in size). Approximately 90 minutes to 2 hours.  
5. In a small glass bowl, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, pepper and parsley. Whisk until mixed well.
6. Lightly grease a 9" x 13" pan. 
7. After the dough is puffy, gently deflate the dough and transfer to a lightly greased work surface. Divide the dough into 24 even pieces. 
8. Shape each piece into a rough ball by pulling the dough, wrapping around and making a small knot on the bottom. Then roll to make a smooth ball.
