Lion House Rolls







2 cups warm water ( 110 to 115 degrees)

2/3 cup non fat dry milk powder

2 tablespoons dry yeast

1 teaspoon sugar

1 egg, beaten

1/4 cup sugar

1/3 cup butter , melted

2 teaspoons salt

5 -5 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

about 1/4 to 1/2 cup additional butter for inside and top of rolls



In large bowl of electric mixer, combine water and milk powder, stir until dissolved.

Sprinkle yeast over warm water and add 1 teaspoon of sugar. Let sit until yeast bubbles. Add egg, additional 1/4 cup of sugar and melted butter. Mix on low speed until ingredients are incorporated. Add 2 cups of flour. Mix well. Add two teaspoons of salt. Mix on low speed of mixer until ingredients are mixed well. Increase speed of mixer for 2 minutes at medium speed.

Add 2 cups more flour; mix on low speed, then for 2 minutes as medium speed. (Dough will become stiff and remaining flour may need to be mixed in by hand).

Add about ½ cup flour and mix again, by hand or mixer.

Dough should be soft, not overly sticky, and not stiff.

(It may not be necessary to use the entire amount of flour.)

Scrape dough off sides of bowl and coat sides of bowl with about 1 tablespoon vegetable oil around sides of the bowl, so it is covered with oil.

Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise in warm place until double in size.

After dough has risen, sprinkle cutting board or counter with flour and place dough on floured surface.

Roll out and cut rolls. See note below to watch instructional video on the method use in making Lion House Rolls.

Place on greased (or parchment lined) baking pans.

Let rise in warm place until rolls are double in size (about 1 to 1 ½ hours).

Bake at 375 for 15 to 20 minutes or until browned.

Brush with melted butter while hot.



Tips:



-I tried the method shown in the video but was unable to flip the rolls and have the rolls turn out in a uniform way. I simply rolled the dough on a floured surface and placed them on the pan to rise.

-If you are making these ahead of time, make the rolls up to the point where the rolls are placed on the cookie sheet. Do not let them raise a second time, cover with a sheet of wax paper and then wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Place immediately in freezer. When ready to bake, take out of freezer about 4 hours prior to baking. Remove plastic wrap and wax paper. Cover loosely with a towel. Let sit in draft free warm place until rolls raise. Do not set pan directly on granite or stone counter top. The counter will be too cold to allow rolls to raise properly. Set a towel down on the counter first, then place the pan on top of the towel.

-Here's a link for a cute idea to roll up little "notes of thanks" inside of your rolls for Thanksgiving, a great idea for kids. The recipe is different than the Lion House roll recipe, but you could use the idea with either recipe.
