Light And Fluffy Yeast Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• Place all ingredients except the 1/4 cup butter into bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
• Select the dough cycle and start machine.
• Shape dough into 20 to 24 balls and place in buttered pan (s).
• Melt the 1/4 cup butter and brush it over the tops of rolls, saving the excess for brushing on after baking.
• Cover and let rise in a warm place about 1 hour, or until double in bulk.
• Bake at 375 degrees F for 15 to 18 minutes.
• Brush baked rolls with remaining butter.
• NOTE: This dough can also be divided into two portions and each rolled into a 12-inch circle; spread each circle with softened butter, cut into 8 wedges and roll up starting with wide end, to make crescents OR use this dough for cinnamon rolls or sticky buns.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425.
• In a large bowl combine 1/2 of the flour with sugar, yeast and salt. Stir until mixed. In microwave heat milk until just under the boiling point. Pour into dry mixture. Melt butter, combine with water and add to flour mixture; stir until combined. Add remaining flour while stirring until dough leaves the sides of bowl and forms a ball. Turn dough out on a lightly floured board and knead in enough remaining flour until dough is smooth and elastic.
• Wash out bowl and grease inside with oil. Placedough in greased bowl to rise. Cover with plastic wrap and a towel. Run 2 inches of very warm water in sink. Place bowl in water to speed rising. Allow to rise for 15 minutes.
• Divide and shape dough as desired. Cover and let rise another 15 minutes. Bake at 425 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Make a Tangzhong by whisking 8 tsp flour into a 1/2 cup of water and heat on low heat to 149° or until the Tangzhong has thickened to about the consistency of a custard. Then cover with plastic wrap so that it touches the Tangzhong and let it cool to room temperature.
• In a food processor with the dough blade attachment, mix together 1/2 cup + 2 Tbsp warm water(110-115 degrees F), the yeast and 1/2 tsp granulated sugar until yeast has dissolved.
• Allow to rest 10 minutes in the food processor.
• While resting put 1 Tbsp + 2 1/2 tsp granulated sugar, 1 1/3 cups flour, 1 3/4 tsp salt in a bowl and mix with a spoon.
• After resting time, add bowl of dry ingredients, the room temp Tangzhong, and 3 Tbsp Olive Oil, to the rested yeast and pulse the mixture until well combined.
• Add in remaining 1 1/2 cups flour and pulse until all is incorporated.
• Add up to 1/4 cup additional flour as needed to make the dough pull away from sides of the food processor but still be slightly sticky to the touch.
• Transfer dough to a large lightly olive oiled mixing bowl, cover with plastic wrap and allow to rest in a warm place (~80 degrees F) until dough doubles, it will take about 1 1/2 hours.
• Rub a small amount of olive oil on your hands then punch risen dough down, divide into 12 equal portions (2 ounces each by weight), keep them covered with plastic wrap as you work.
• Lightly flour your surface and hands, and shape it into a roll by flattening a piece of dough, folding the top half way down and the bottom half way up, flattening again, then rolling it up like a carpet. Finally, take both ends of the roll and tuck them under so that they touch and roll that in your hands to make it into a ball like shape. Or shape them any other way you were taught to make rolls.
• Then place them on two parchment paper lined cookie sheets or one parchment paper lined 8x12 inch cake pan. Cover and let rise 1 hour (or 45 minutes at room temperature and then placed into the refrigerator for a few hours and take out while preheating oven). Preheat oven to 425 during the last 10 minutes of rising.
• Bake in preheated oven 11 - 13 minutes until golden.
• When it is done, run a stick of margarine or brush olive oil over top of the hot rolls. Top with your favorite seasoning (I like garlic salt).
• Serve warm or allow to cool and store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Mix together the warm water and yeast packet in measuring cup. Let it get good and foamy.
• Mix together the oil, boiling water, and sugar. Stir until sugar dissolves. Add the foamy yeast water, and then the beaten egg.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add about 1 cup of dry mix to the liquids at a time, and mix very, very well.
• Grease pan.
• Pinch dough into balls. Keep them small because they will still rise. Let rise 2 hours, or until just past doubled.
• Preheat oven to 400.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Brush with melted butter fresh out of the oven, and serve warm.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine milk, shortening, sugar, and salt in a saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat; set aside and allow to cool.
• Mix yeast with 1/4 cup lukewarm water in a large bowl; set aside until yeast dissolves and little bubbles begin to appear on the surface, about 10 minutes.
• Pour cooled milk mixture into yeast. Stir in eggs and gradually add flour, stirring with a wooden spoon until dough is too stiff to stir, then use your hands to knead in the flour (dough will be sticky, so grease your hands with a little butter). Brush a small amount of butter on the inside of a large bowl and on one side of a sheet of waxed paper. Place dough in bowl, cover with buttered waxed paper, and lay a clean damp dish towel on top. Set aside to rise until doubled, at least three hours.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until elastic, then roll out to 1/2 -inch thickness. Cut dough with a 3-inch biscuit cutter, dip each round into melted butter, and fold in half. Line up, round edges up, sides touching, in a baking pan. Cover with buttered waxed paper and a towel, and set aside to rise, at least 2 1/2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake until golden, about 15 minutes. Rolls are best served warm.

Steps:

• Combine the warm water and yeast in a large bowl and let it stand for about 10 minutes.
• Stir in oil, sugar, eggs and salt.
• Beat in flour, 1 cup at a time, until dough is too stiff to mix ( some flour may not be needed).
• Cover and refrigerate 2 hours or up to 4 days.
• Grease a 13X9-inch baking pan. Turn the chilled dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough into 24 equal-size pieces. Roll each piece into a ball; place balls in the prepared pan.
• Cover and let dough balls rise for 1 - 1 1/2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 350º F.
• Bake until rolls are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Break rolls apart to serve.
