My husband has a love for homemade rolls. My one complaint with that is how long they take to make and rise. One day while I was helping my sister make dinner, I watch her start on the rolls less than an hour before dinner. I muttered under my breath that they would never be done in time and to my shock they were faster, easier and more delicious than I could have ever imagined. If you have never made bread before or you just want an easier recipes this recipe is for you!
You will need:
5 1/4 C. bread flour (Trust me on the bread flour, it just works better)
1/2 TBSP. Salt
1/4 C. Sugar
1 1/2 TBSP. Yeast
1 1/2 TBSP Soy Lethicin Liquid
2 C. Warm Water
Mix together the bread flour, salt, sugar, yeast and Soy Lethicin in a mixer. Pour in the water while mixing and then keep mixing for five minutes.
Shape into balls, or if you want twists, roll out dough with your fingers into strands (Like you used to make play-doh snakes) and then coil the dough around itself. DO NOT add ANY flour while shaping into balls. If you need to prevent sticking use cooking spray, not flour. Let the dough rise for 20 minutes and then bake at 350 for 20 minutes.
I have never seen a bread recipe with so few steps before. This is quick and easy and more importantly some of the best rolls I have ever had!
Where would one buy soy lecithin? I have heard a lot about it lately but I haven't noticed it on my grocery store shelf… not that I've been looking super closely… 🙂
Is there an alternative to the soy lethicin? My son can't have soy.
