Big Ole Yeast Rolls

These turned out perfect and will very likely be the last go to yeast roll recipe you use.  These would be perfect for buns, too.  I'm thinking these would be a great addition to Easter, or any holiday.  I haven't added the actual recipe to my blog, it is on Examiner.com.  The link below the pictures will take you there.  Enjoy!

Peanut Butter Yeast Rolls

My family requested chili at 4 o'clock in the afternoon!  I usually like to cook chili all day.  Either simmering on the back burner of the stove or in a crock pot.   I always have some sort of bread when I cook chili.  It's not a stable at suppertime in our home but with chili, yeah, it is.  Cornbread, garlic bread, white bread even.  Surprisingly, this is great with a big bowl of chili!  It's hearty with a peanut butter taste that isn't overwhelming.  These make a great school lunch or snack after school.  Just warm up and you have the taste of a peanut butter sandwich without the gooey mess.

Peanut Butter Yeast Rolls

4 to 4 1/2 cups all purpose flour

1/2 cup sugar

3 Tablespoons dry active yeast

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup milk

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup peanut butter

Stir together 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 3 Tablespoons yeast and 1 teaspoon salt. Set aside.

Heat milk and water to 110 degrees and pour into flour mixture.

Add peanut butter and stir, adding enough flour to make a soft dough.

Put dough on a well floured surface and knead, adding more flour as needed, for 4-6 minutes or until it is smooth and elastic.  I used just shy of 4 cups.

Pat into a rectangle and cut into equal squares. Although, mine weren't and usually never are.  It's just something that everyone tells you to do.  ~wink~

Now, run over and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and then..

Grease a 9x13 pan.

Put uneven, I mean, even pieces of cut dough on in pan.  Let rise in a warm, draft free place until double in size, 30 - 45 minutes.  I waited 30 and they were at the top of the pan.  I had to get them in the oven before the storm came.

Once doubled in size, cook for 10 minutes, turn pan and cook another 7-10 until done and lightly brown on top.  I can never really tell about bread being done.  I took mine out when they were light brown and they were done at 18 minutes.

Eat them right away if you want the taste of a warm peanut butter sandwich.  Oh, the microwave chili recipe will be posted soon.

Cinnamon Breakfast Rolls

I took rolls out to thaw for supper, put them in the refrigerator and somehow forgot to cook them.  Yes, I know….it doesn’t seem possible to forget something as delicious as yeast rolls.  But, I did! 
We had Chicken and Dumplings.  We ate way too much food.  Piled up on the couches and we all went to sleep.  All except my oldest, he went to bed after school because of a headache…darn allergies!  He woke me up at 8:30…hungry and thinking it was time to get ready for school.  After making him a sandwich, convincing him it was a long time until morning, getting the little ones ready for and put in bed, waking my husband and sending him to bed, getting myself ready for bed…I then sat on the couch again.  Yep, went back to sleep.  
I was up at 4 a.m. and knew I couldn’t go back to sleep.  Stiff from sleeping on the couch, I made my way to the kitchen to start the coffee and then to start a load of laundry (this is an ongoing process at our house!)  I looked in the refrigerator and they therewere…the rolls I took out the day before were ready to be baked!  They had were fluffy like the pillow I missed sleeping on last night.  I knew I needed to cook them.  Thinking I had cinnamon sugar made (I keep in on hand) I decided to make cinnamon rolls but didn’t want anything really sweet.  The rolls ended up with swirls of cinnamon sugar inside buttery yeast rolls.  YUMMY!  I hope you enjoy them as much as we did!  <3 and Hugs!

1 –2 cups cinnamon sugar;  1 to 4 Tablespoons ground cinnamon *to taste* to 1 cup brown sugar

butter or margarine

Roll lengthwise and then fold under

Place in greased pan, mine is 10x12 and let rise until doubled in size.

As always..My oven cooks different than yours.  Check at earliest time and adjust as needed.
Slather butter or margarine, all over the rolls.  I keep a stick in the freezer, take out and rub all over the rolls.  YUM!
