These simple, tender rolls bake to a golden brown and will disappear in no time. If you've never baked with yeast before, these rolls are the perfect starting point. âWilma Harter, Witten, South Dakota Ingredients:
2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast |
2 cups warm water (110° to 115°) |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 egg |
1/4 cup canola oil |
2 teaspoons salt |
6 to 6-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl, combine sugar, egg, oil, salt, yeast mixture and 4 cups flour; beat on medium speed until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a stiff dough.
2. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
3. Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into four portions. Divide and shape each portion into 12 balls. Roll each ball into an 8-in. rope; tie into a loose knot. Tuck ends under. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Cover with kitchen towels; let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350°.
4. Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks. Yield: 4 dozen.
