A new recipe...

I recently went through all my loose recipes - things I had gotten out of magazines and off food containers, that kind of thing. I found this recipe for dinner rolls from an old Homelife magazine. You know Baptists - all about food you can bring to the next covered dish meal! I LOVE these rolls. They are so easy to prepare and take less than 30 minutes to make. Of course, I wanted to share...



Hot Rolls
1/4 oz. active dry yeast (one packet)
2 cups lukewarm water
4 cups self-rising flour (if using all purpose, add 6 tsp baking powder and 2 tsp. salt)
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup butter (or margarine), melted
1 large egg, lightly beaten

Preheat oven to 400.
Combine yeast and water, let stand for 5 minutes
Stir in flour and other ingredients until blended.
Spoon into well-greased muffin pans (2/3 full).
Bake 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Makes about 18 rolls.

I use Smart Balance margarine when I make them, and I normally have to cook them at a lower temp. for a little longer to have them ready at the same time as whatever else I'm making. 350 for 30 minutes or so has also worked well for me. Hope you enjoy!
