Sub / Sandwich Rolls

Thanks to Melanie Vader for sharing this great recipe with me!

3/4 c warm water
4 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp dry yeast
1/4 c crisco, or butter  melted (I used butter)
1 c full fat milk
1 1/2 tsp salt
51/2 c all purpose flour

In small bowl proof yeast in 3/4 c warm water(110 degree)


In a large bowl mix 5 c flour w/ melted crisco or butter.


In a small bowl mix 1c milk with sugar and salt. Warm in microwave ( I do mine for 1 minute)  stirring to dissolve sugar and salt. Pour into flour and butter mixture. Add proofed yeast and knead dough until smooth (add more flour if needed).


Place dough on lightly floured board to rest for 5 -10 minutes.


Place in oiled bowl covered with a towel to rise 50-60 minutes.

Punch down dough and cut into pieces and shape into desired shape.  ( I made rolls and hot dog buns) Place shaped dough on oiled cookie sheet cover and let rise for 25 minutes or until doubled

Preheat oven to 375,  bake for 22-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Note: i tried this as a loaf of bread and it just wasn't that good... as rolls I really liked it!!
