QUICK YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the shortening, sugar, and hot water. Allow to cool until lukewarm, and mix in the yeast until dissolved. Mix in the egg, salt, and flour. Allow the dough to rise until doubled in size.
• Grease 8 muffin cups. Divide the dough into the prepared muffin cups, and allow to rise again until doubled in size.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.

NORMA'S QUICK ROLLS

Steps:

• Mix all and knead on a floured surface for about 10 minutes.
• Let rise 20 minutes and knead again.
• Make into rolls, using a floured glass to cut out, and place on a lg. greased pizza pan.
• Let rise 20 minutes or until double in size.
• Bake at 375, for 20 minutes.

EASY BREAD ROLLS

Steps:

• Tip the flour, yeast, sugar, salt and oil into a bowl. Pour over 325ml warm water, then mix (with a spatula or your hand), until it comes together as a shaggy dough. Make sure all the flour has been incorporated. Cover and leave for 10 mins.
• Lightly oil your work surface and tip the dough onto it. Knead the dough for at least 10 mins until it becomes tighter and springy - if you have a stand mixer you can do this with a dough hook for 5 mins. Pull the dough into a ball and put in a clean, oiled bowl. Leave for 1 hr, or until doubled in size.
• Tip the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a long sausage shape. Halve the dough, then divide each half into four pieces, so you have eight equal-sized portions. Roll each into a tight ball and put on a dusted baking tray, leaving some room between each ball for rising. Cover with a damp tea towel and leave in a warm place to prove for 40 mins-1 hr or until almost doubled in size.
• Heat the oven to 230C/210C fan/gas 8. When the dough is ready, dust each ball with a bit more flour. (If you like, you can glaze the rolls with milk or beaten egg, and top with seeds.) Bake for 25-30mins, until light brown and hollow sounding when tapped on the base. Leave to cool on a wire rack.

QUICK ROLLS

Steps:

• Proof the yeast with a bit of the warm water and sugar in a small bowl.
• Meanwhile, mix the flour, remaining sugar and salt together in a large bowl.
• When the yeast is foaming and bubbling after a few minutes, mix it into the dough along with the two eggs, warm water and oil.
• Knead the dough (it will be sticky) until smooth and elastic.
• In a KitchenAid mixer this only takes a couple minutes on speed 3.
• Let rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Punch down and then shape into rolls and let rise again.
• I like to make cloverleaf rolls with this recipe, which involves placing three balls of dough, no bigger than a ping pong ball, in a greased muffin cup.
• Once the balls have risen again, brush with the beaten egg for a nice brown finish and bake in a hot oven.
• The time will depend on the size, but mine take about 15 minutes at 200 C.
