Grannys Dinner Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• Combine 3/4 cup flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Heat milk, water and butter until very warm (120 degrees to 130 degrees F). Add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add 1/4 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed. Stir in enough remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.
• Divide dough into 12 equal pieces; shape into balls. Place in greased 8-inch round pan. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
• Bake in preheated 375 degrees F oven for 20 minutes or until done. Remove from pan; brush with additional melted butter, if desired. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Bring milk, sugar, salt, and 2 tablespoons butter to a simmer in a large saucepan, stirring until sugar and salt have dissolved and butter has melted. Remove from heat, and let cool to 110 degrees.
• Meanwhile, sprinkle yeast over warm water in a small bowl, and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Stir into milk mixture. Add 5 cups flour, and stir until a stiff dough forms (if dough is too sticky, add more flour, 1/4 cup at a time).
• Turn out dough on a lightly floured work surface, and knead until smooth. Transfer to a large buttered bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 2 hours.
• Divide dough into 24 pieces. Roll each piece into a smooth ball. Space 2 inches apart on buttered baking sheets, and cover each with a towel. Let rise until doubled in size, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter, and lightly brush on top of rolls. Decorate with rosemary if desired. Bake until golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool on sheets on wire racks.

Steps:

• Preheat over to 425F Mix throughly sugar and oil.
• Add boiling water and let cool.
• Add egg and yeast (dissolve yeast in 2T water first).
• Mix well.
• Add cold water, salt, flour.
• Do NOT knead.
• Mix enough to ensure through mixing.
• Kneading or over mixing will cause the dough to become tough.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• Can last 5 days.
• Roll out on a lightly floured surface.
• You may shape these into Parker House Rolls, Butterhorns or Rosettes, whatever you perfer.
• Brush with melted butter (and garlic salt if you prefer.) and let rise for 1 hour.
• (Although they come out better if you allow them to rise in this step, you may skip it.) Bake for 12-15 minutes.
