These babies aren't just rolls, they're WHOLE-WHEAT rolls. What could be better? Honestly, I think my favorite part of Thanksgiving Dinner is the roll(s) covered in Turkey gravy. Pure deliciousness.
If you're like me you'll probably just grab a bag of Rhodes frozen rolls (is there anything more delicious on the planet? I think not!). But some of you out there might be Super Moms (and Dads) and might to the extra mile and make your own. If you do, MORE POWER TO YA! I honestly don't know the first thing about making bread. I'll leave that to the wonderful, genius people at Rhodes (which you can't buy in San Diego, darn!)
Whole-Wheat Dinner Rolls
Ingredients:
1/2oz active dry yeast
2 1/4C warm water
1/4C shortening
2 eggs
1/2C +1tsp sugar
2 tsp salt
3C whole wheat flour
3 1/2-4C all-purpose flour
1/4C butter, melted
Instructions:
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water; let stand for 5 minutes. Add the shortening, eggs, sugar, salt and whole wheat flour; beat until smooth. Add enough all-purpose flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8min. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch dough down, divide into 4 portions; shape into 12 balls. Place 1in apart on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 25 min. Bake at 375 for 11-15min or until browned. Brush with butter.
Makes 4 dozen.
