Description

These rolls are reminiscent of pizzeria fare.

Ingredients

   
For the stuffing:
   
olive oil
1 lb
baby spinach
   
several garlic cloves, minced salt
   
mozzarella, thinly sliced
   
For the rolls:
3 c
whole wheat flour
4 t
baking powder
1 t
salt
1 1⁄2 ct
spring water
1⁄4 c
olive oil

Instructions

To make the stuffing, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until lightly browned; add spinach (working in batches, if necessary), and sauté until wilted. Sprinkle with salt, and set aside.
To make the rolls, mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the spring water and the olive oil. Add the liquids to the flour mixture, and mix with a spoon or with your hands until a ball is formed.
Using a rolling pin, roll a handful of dough into a circle. Top with some spinach and mozzarella slices, and roll up, sealing the seam with your fingers. Continue until all dough is gone.
Lay rolls on a non-stick baking sheet, and bake at 350F until rolls are firm or starting to brown, about 30 minutes.
