Serves/Makes: 30
Ready in: 1-2 hrs
- 2/3 cup lukewarm water
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 packages (.25 ounce size) dry active yeast
- 2/3 cup milk, scalded and cooled to lukewarm
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 5 cups all-purpose flour
Place half of the warm water in a small bowl. Add a pinch of sugar. Sprinkle the yeast over the surface of the water and set aside. Combine the milk, oil, sugar, salt, and remaining water in a bowl. Mix well. Stir in 1 cup of the flour, mixing until combined. Add the eggs and yeast mixture and mix gently. Stir in the remaining flour and mix until combined. Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface and knead the dough for 2 minutes. Grease a large bowl well with oil. Form the dough into a ball and place in the bowl, turning it to coat it with the oil. Cover the bowl with a tea towel and let the dough rise for 45 minutes or until doubled in size. Punch the dough down to deflate it and let the dough rise again (about another 45 minutes). The dough is now ready to use. Use the sweet roll dough in your favorite recipes for sandwich buns or sweet rolls such as cinnamon or jelly. CDKitchen Note: "Grandma" was actually OUR Grandma so we highly recommend this recipe!
