Amish Potato Rolls image

These are so soft and yummy! They remind me of some I had as a child that a neighbor made all the time. I am so glad to have found this recipe. For convenience I use instant potatoes a lot and it works fine. These are even better the next day which to me with bread is rare, so I plan to make them for Thanksgiving this year.

Time 55m

Yield 36 4 ounce rolls, 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 teaspoons yeast
1 pint warm water
1 cup sugar
5 eggs
1 tablespoon salt
2 cups mashed potatoes
3/4 cup Crisco
8 -9 cups bread flour

Steps:

  • Sprinkle yeast over water that has been placed in your mixer.
  • Allow the yeast to activate and then mix in sugar.
  • Then add potatoes, salt, shortening, and eggs.
  • Add flour a cup at a time stopping at 8.
  • Only add enough of the remaining flour to get an only slightly sticky feel. The dough should be workable but not dry.
  • Place in a greased bowl and cover with a towel.
  • Allow to rise till doubled in a warm place.
  • Measure another 1/2 c flour into a bowl.
  • Spray hands with pan spray (will need to repeat this as the dough starts to stick a bit).
  • Break off dough and form into rolls.
  • Roll into flour just to coat.
  • Place on a greased pan and allow to rise till almost doubled.
  • Bake in a preheated 350°F oven 20-25 minutes or till lightly browned.
  • Prep time does not include rise time as that will vary.
