Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, yeast, and salt.

In a separate bowl, whisk together warm milk, honey, melted butter, and eggs until smooth.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Punch down the risen dough and divide it into equal portions.

Shape each portion into a roll and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Cover the rolls and let them rise for another 30 minutes.

Brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle with oats and seeds if desired.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
