An old friend served these rolls when my family went to her house for Sunday dinner several years ago. I made sure I had a copy of the recipe before leaving. Ingredients:
1-1/4 cups boiling water |
2/3 cup quick-cooking oats |
1/4 cup butter, softened |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast |
3-1/2 to 4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, pour boiling water over cereal. Add the butter and salt. Let stand until mixture cools to 110°-115°, stirring occasionally. Add the sugar, egg, yeast and 2 cups flour. 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 5 minutes. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes. 3. Roll to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 2-1/2-in biscuit cutter. Place 2 in. apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. 4. Bake at 375° for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks. Serve warm. Yield: about 1-1/2 dozen. |
