Dissolve the yeast and honey in the lukewarm water. In a mixing bowl, combine the whole grain flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture to the flour and stir with a wooden spoon until all ingredients form a sticky dough. If needed, add 1–2 teaspoons of water. Cover the dough and let it rise at room temperature for two hours.

Preheat the oven to 220 °C (200 °C fan/ convection) [about 425 °F] and place an ovenproof bowl of water on the bottom of the oven.

Place the dough on a floured work surface and, without kneading too much, shape it into a ball. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Flatten the dough pieces slightly and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, until they are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack before serving.
