Grandma's Zwieback Rolls image

When Mother baked zweiback rolls-which means "twice baked"-she'd guard them, lest they disappear quickly! She would bake them on Sundays when friends came by for "fsapa" a meal of cold meat, cheese, jelly and coffee.

Time 1h

Yield 24 rolls.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
6 to 6-1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 tablespoon salt
3/4 cup butter, melted and cooled
2 cups scalded milk, cooled

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in water; set aside. In a large bowl, combine 3 cups flour, salt, shortening, milk and yeast mixture. Beat well. Add enough of the remaining flour to form a soft dough. , Turn out onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic about 6-8 minutes. Dough will be soft. Place dough in a lightly greased bowl; cover and allow to rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. , Punch dough down and divide into four pieces. Divide three of the pieces into eight pieces each; shape into smooth balls and place on greased baking sheets. Divide remaining dough into 24 balls. Press 1 small ball atop each larger ball. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes. , Preheat oven to 375°. Bake until golden, 28-32 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks. Serve warm.
