Honey Challah Rolls Recipe

Directions:

1. Note: You can save a lot of time here if you have a bread machine that has a manual setting that allows the bread machine to stop after the mixing and first rising and not go into a Bake cycle.
2. Many of the better machines have that option specifically so you can make rolls instead of a whole bread loaf.
3. If so add the above ingredients to your bread machine, remembering to separate one egg and reserve it's egg white for later as explained in step 3.
4. Set the bread machine to the manual cycle so it will mix but not bake.
5. Then after the bread machine is done follow the recipe from step 5 on.
6. In electric mixer, combine 3 1/2 cups flour, yeast, and salt, blending well.
7. Separate one egg; set white aside.
