I am not sure about the apple sauce but certainly you can add some melted butter or coconut oil. I believe 1/4 cup would be enough.

Would you add oil, and if so, jow much? If not oil, what? To kerp it lower fat, what do you think of apesauce? Would that work with the dough?

Oh no, I will surely fix the instructions to make them more clear, however, I do mention the flaxseed and oat bran in the instructions. I have made these rolls a couple of times in the past and I have always gotten fine results, however, I don’t see why not you couldn’t add some sort of fat to them. I am sure the structure of the rolls would be a bit better. I just found not necessary for us at home to use any but you could certainly add either coconut oil or butter and they would still come out fine. Thanks for leaving a reply!

Also, there are ingredients listed which are not later addressed in the instructions, for instance, the oat bran and flax seed. The instruction is to mix them in a small bowl with water and let them sit. Then the instructions move on to mixing the remaining ingredients and the previous mixture is forgotten. The remainder of the ingredients are obviously not going to be mixed into the SMALL bowl into which the flax seed and oat bran were placed because they are too voluminous. I assume it is supposed to be obvious that the oat bran and flax seed mixture is to be added to the rest of the ingredients, but a good recipe should state that. The directions actually call for all purpose flour, but nowhere in the ingredients list is that listed. I note that “celtic” salt is called for, but is that really necessary?
