Ingredients:

• 4 to 4-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

• 1/4 cup sugar

• 2 tablespoons mashed potato flakes

• 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast

• 2 teaspoons salt

• 1/2 teaspoon dill weed

• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

• 2 cups water

• 4-1/2 teaspoons butter

• 1 cup old-fashioned oats

• 1 large egg, room temperature

• 3/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Topping:

• 2 tablespoons fat-free milk

• 4-1/2 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese

• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1/2 teaspoon dill weed

• 1/2 teaspoon dried basil

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine 1-1/2 cups flour, sugar, potato flakes, yeast, salt, dill, and garlic powder. In a small saucepan, bring water and butter just to a boil.

2. In a small bowl, pour boiling liquid over oats. Let stand until mixture cools to 120°-130°, stirring occasionally. Add to dry ingredients; beat just until moistened. Add egg; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a firm dough (dough will be sticky).

3. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Knead in mozzarella cheese. Place in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning once to coat the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled for about 1-1/4 hours.

4. Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 24 pieces. Shape each into a ball. Place in a 13x9-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray; brush milk over rolls.

5. In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; sprinkle over tops. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 45 minutes.

6. Preheat oven to 375°. Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to a wire rack. Refrigerate leftovers.
