Share A Meal Monday

I have always been really impressed when I go somewhere for dinner and there are homemade buns. I don't know why but I've always thought it takes a special talent and a lot of time to make buns. My BFF gave me this recipe (hi Shar!) and I love her for it. This is an easy and delicious recipe for homemade dinner rolls and it doesn't take a lot of talent or even much time. Now I can impress dinner guests and I haven't even done anything that spectacular!  Give it a try.

2 Hour Buns
4 cups flour
1 Tbsp fast rising yeast
1 egg
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups warm water
3 Tbsp oil
1/2 tsp salt

Mix 2 cups of flour with yeast. Beat egg, sugar, water and oil together in a separate bowl. Add this to flour mixture and beat well. Add remaining flour and salt. Let rise 15 minutes then punch down. Let rise 15 more minutes and them make into buns. If desired dip tops in melted butter. Let rise one hour. Bake at 375 for 15 to 20 minutes.

  3. Woo Hoo!! I love how easy these buns are. Lately I've been putting the bowl of dough in a warm oven to help force rise it, and letting it rise for 1/2 hour instead of 15 minutes. So they're more like 3 hour buns than 2, but if I've got the time it's worth it. They end up so light and yummy!! Hmmm....maybe I should make these today!
