Dinner Rolls
September 29, 2009
The dough only needs an hour to rise, so these rolls are a quick addition to dinner.
Dissolve one package of active dry yeast and one tablespoon of sugar in a half cup of warm water (the temperature at which you’d give a baby a bath). While you let the yeast mixture bubble, warm up a half cup of milk, then add 1/4 cup of sugar and 1/3 cup of butter. When the milk mixture had cooled and the yeast is active, mix these two together and add one beaten egg and one teaspoon of salt.
The addition of three cups of unbleached flower turned this liquid into a wet dough; knead this with another 3/4 cup of flour or so, and let the dough rise for an hour.
When the dough has doubled in size, roll out little balls and place three in each muffin-hole of a muffin tray. Preheat the oven to 400, and cook for 10-15 minutes.
