You wonât be able to eat just one of my momâs famous yeast rolls. Theyâre light and fluffy with a wonderful flavorâ¦and even more delicious served warm with a little butter. âSusan Hansen Auburn, Alabama Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening |
1/4 cup sugar |
2 teaspoons salt |
1-1/2 cups boiling water |
2 tablespoons active dry yeast |
1/2 cup warm water (110° to 115°) |
3 eggs |
6-3/4 to 7-1/4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup butter, melted |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the shortening, sugar and salt. Stir in boiling water. Cool to 110°-115°. Dissolve yeast in warm water. Add yeast mixture, eggs and 3 cups flour to shortening mixture. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
2. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes.
3. Punch dough down; turn onto a lightly floured surface. Roll dough to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. Fold circles in half; press edges to seal. Place 2 in. apart on baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
4. Bake at 400° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire racks. Brush with butter. Serve warm. Yield: 3 dozen.
