Notes:

The dough is wetter than with APF. I had to increase hydration since WW absorbs more liquid than regular white flour.

The dough rises well and has a nice spring but can definitely benefit from a slow cool rise in the fridge.

I had steam circulate the oven with the use of a pan of water on bottom rack to get the crusty exterior.

Baking time was longer than of white pan de sal.

Has a nice crackling sound when sliced.

I have not acquired a taste for ww products so I can't describe whether I like the bread or not, but the kids said the bread was ok.

This is definitely healthier at 100 calories per roll and carbs can be reduced by cutting down or omitting sugar.
