Light and Easy Dinner Rolls!

Add 1 TB yeast and 1 TB sugar to 1/4 cup of warm water in a small bowl. Set this aside for the yeast to activate and get bubbly!

mix 1/4 cup of butter (room temp), 1 1/4 tea salt, and 1 TB sugar
Add 1 Cup hot water and stir until dissolved

When lukewarm add yeast mixture and 1 beaten egg

Add approximately 2 3/4 cup flour (I always add mostly wheat flour but have done all white). Mixture should be still sticky but you need to be able to handle it.

Kneed on flour board and put put back in bowl cover and let raise. Should double in size.
(I turn my oven on for 1 min to preheat then turn it off. This makes a nice warm place for my dough to raise.)

Flatten on flour board to make your rolls. I use a round glass and make a circle, stretch it out, spread melted butter, and fold over. But any method is fine.

Then let raise again! (picture above)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees, and bake for 12 to 15 minutes!



Patiently waiting to have yummy rolls!!!



Funny how one is missing!!! I have to have one right out of the oven! They are so so so good!!!
Enjoy!!!
