• Dissolve yeast in warm water and sugar in a large bowl. Add in oil, salt, egg and flour until combined. (Add a little extra flour if dough is too sticky.)
• Shape immediately into about 15 rolls and place in a greased 9x13" cake pan. Let raise for about 15-20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375ºF. Bake rolls for about 15-20 minutes. Spread butter on the tops of cooked rolls for a finishing touch. Enjoy!

QUICK YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the shortening, sugar, and hot water. Allow to cool until lukewarm, and mix in the yeast until dissolved. Mix in the egg, salt, and flour. Allow the dough to rise until doubled in size.
• Grease 8 muffin cups. Divide the dough into the prepared muffin cups, and allow to rise again until doubled in size.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.

1-HOUR SOFT AND BUTTERY DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400°F. Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray, and set aside.
• In a microwave-safe bowl (or saucepan, see below), stir together the water and melted butter, then add in the milk and honey and stir until combined. Microwave the mixture for 1 minute and give it a stir. Continue microwaving the mixture in 15 second intervals, until it reaches 110°F. It will be warm but not hot to the touch. (*Alternately, you can heat the mixture over medium-low heat in a saucepan until it reaches 110°F.)
• Pour the liquid mixture into the large bowl of a stand mixer. Sprinkle the yeast evenly on top, give it a quick stir with a fork to combine, and let the yeast activate for 5 minutes until it is foamy.
• Add in 3 1/2 cups of flour (not all of the flour) and the salt.
• (See alternate instructions in the notes below for how to knead the dough by hand.) Use the dough-hook to mix in the dry ingredients on medium-low speed until combined. If the dough is sticking to the sides of the bowl, add in 1/4 cup more flour at a time until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and is only slightly sticky to the touch. (Only use up to 4 cups of flour total.) Continue mixing on low speed for 4-5 minutes until the dough is smooth. Then form the dough into a ball with your hands and transfer it to a greased bowl.
• Cover the bowl with a damp towel or paper towel, and let it rise briefly for 15 minutes.
• Gently punch the dough down and divide into 15 equal-sized pieces. Form each piece into a ball and place the dough balls in the greased baking dish. Cover the dish again with a damp towel or paper towel and let the dough balls rise for an additional 15-20 minutes.
• Uncover and bake for 15 minutes, or until the rolls are lightly golden brown on top and cooked through.
• Transfer the baking dish to a wire cooling rack and brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter.
• Then serve warm and enjoy!
