HOMEMADE DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• In a standing mixing bowl with dough hook, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let sit until lightly foamy, then stir in sugar and add egg, salt, warm milk, and 4 ounces of butter. Slowly add 5 cups flour, adding more as needed to make an elastic dough. Mix well, then roll out to floured surface and knead dough for about 5 minutes.
• Place dough in buttered bowl, cover with towel, and set in a warm place to rise until double in bulk, about 1 hour.
• Lightly oil the muffin pan. Punch down dough and form dough into 1-inch balls. Place 3 balls in each muffin tin. Fill muffin pan, cover with towel, and allow to rise an additional 1/2 hour.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Brush with remaining melted butter. Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, until golden brown.

HOMEMADE DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• We're going to start with mixing together the yeast and WARM water for these delicious rolls.
• While the WARM water and yeast are dissolving, we're going to mix together the milk and butter in a glass measuring cup and pop it in the microwave for one minute to WARM the milk and melt the butter. In the meantime we're going to throw in (to the yeast mixture): the beaten egg, the sugar, the salt, and 1 cup of flour.
• Now add the WARM milk / butter mixture into the yeast mixture. It can't be piping hot, so let it cool to warm before adding, otherwise you will kill the yeast. Give that a mix, and then add the second cup of flour (Switch to using a spatula to mix the dough now) Give that a mix, and add the third cup of flour and that will form a wet, sticky dough, but it should be dry enough to scrap out on to the cutting board to begin to knead.
• On a floured board, we're going to plop down the dough and we're going to work that for about 6-7 minutes. We're only going to add flour in when the dough gets too sticky to knead. So make sure your hands are floured, and work that using the old kneading method - half turns and push it with your palm.
• Knead that until you have a smooth and elastic, but still soft and slightly sticky dough. Don't work too much flour into the dough, only add it if it gets to sticky to work with. So knead it until it gets to this point - this is what I mean by elastic, see how it springs back. Form that into a nice smooth ball.
• In a mixing bowl, add the vegetable oil, throw in the dough and make sure it's coated with oil so it doesn't dry out. Cover with a towel and let it rise, in a warn spot, until double in size. It should take about an hour to an hour and a half.
• After it doubles, throw it on a lightly floured cutting board, and pat it down with your hands. Form it into a square shape. Then take a knife and cut it into 12 pieces (or how ever many dinner rolls you have scaled the recipe for). Then we're going to shape the rolls, which is very simple. Just take a piece of dough and roll it into a round shape in your palm.
• Now, we're going to put them on the pan, kind of close, about 1 1/2" apart. As they rise and double in size, which will take about 30-45 minutes, they will sort of touch each other and that's what going to give them that great dinner roll shape.
• We're going to bake these at 350 degrees F. for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown. And that is one beautiful set of dinner rolls. They even have that traditional touching "pull-apart" quality which I think is pretty cool. And, since these are so easy, I don't buy these at the store anymore. It's just not how I "roll." Anyway, give these a try. Enjoy!

DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Place water in a small bowl; sprinkle with yeast, and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. In a large bowl, whisk together milk, butter, sugar, salt, and 2 eggs. Whisk in yeast mixture.
• Using a wooden spoon, stir in 6 cups flour, 1 cup at a time, until you have a soft, shaggy dough (if necessary, add up to 1/2 cup more flour). Turn dough out onto a floured work surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 5 to 10 minutes. Butter the inside of a large bowl; place dough in bowl, turning to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap; let stand in a warm spot until dough has doubled in size, about 1 1/4 hours.
• Butter two 13-by-9-inch baking pans. Divide dough in half. Roll each half into a 15-inch rope; cut each rope into 15 1-inch pieces. Press each piece into a disk, then shape into a ball. Arrange dough balls in prepared pans. (To make ahead: Wrap pans well, and freeze, up to 2 months.) Cover pans loosely with plastic; let stand in a warm spot until rolls have doubled in size, about 1 1/4 hours (2 hours more if frozen).
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. In a small bowl, beat remaining egg until blended; brush onto rolls. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes, rotating pans back to front and top to bottom halfway through. Let rolls cool 15 minutes before serving.

Place in a bowl coated with cooking spray, turning once to coat the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 24 pieces. Shape each into a roll. Place 2 in. apart on baking sheets coated with cooking spray.
