I decided to try my luck with making dinner rolls tonight. I was slightly intimidated because I don't have a bread machine, but I figured, what the heck?
These rolls are SOOOO good! Don't be intimidated by bread-making.
Ingredients:
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 cup warm water
1 cup milk (room temperature)
2 eggs
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons of butter, softened
6 cups bread flour
1 egg white
2 tablespoons water
Whatever herb/seasoning your little heart desires
Directions:
1. In small bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in 1 cup warm water. Land stand until frothy/creamy; about 10 minutes.
2. In a large bowl, stir together the yeast mixture with milk, eggs, salt, butter, seasoning and 4 cups of flour. Add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until dough has pulled together. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic; about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and out in a warm place to rise until doubled in volume; about 1 hour.
3. Grease two cookie sheets ( I used parchment paper.) Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into little balls and place on prepared pans. Cover the rolls with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume; about 40 minutes.
4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a small bowl, slightly whisk the egg white with 2 tablespoons of water; brush egg wash over the tops of rolls.
5. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Enjoy!!
Rise little dough ball, rise!
The house smelled SO yummy!
Yummm!!
