Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

2 c warm water
•2 pkg. Fleischmann's very active dry yeast
•2 1/2 t sugar
•6 c. bread flour (2 pounds)
•1 T of salt
•2/3 c vegetable oil
•6 T butter melted

Steps:

1. Mix the water, sugar, and yeast together in a small bowl or measuring glass. 2. In a large bowl mix together flour and salt. 3. Add in vegetable oil and start to mix. 4. Pour in dissolved yeast mixture and stir with your hands (They're gonna get messy). 5. Once it forms a ball dump onto a floured counter and knead. 6. Knead dough until it becomes smooth. 7. You may need to add a tablespoon or two more of water if the dough is too dry. 8. Once well-combined place dough in a large oiled bowl and cover with a damp cloth. 9. Place in a warm area of the house to rise for about an hour until the dough has doubled in size (I use my laundry room with the dryer running). 10. Once doubled if you poke it with your finger it shouldn't push back out. 11. Punch down dough. 12. To form even balls for your rolls split the dough in half then half each of those in half and so on and so on until you have 32 balls*. 13. Form rolls and place in a grease circular pie plate 7 around and one in a center. (I use disposable pan so I can freeze a lot). 14. Place covered in a warm place and allow to rise again for about an hour 15. Preheat oven to 350 degrees 16. Brush melted butter on the tops of the risen rolls Eating right away: 1. Place in the oven and bake for 20 min or until golden brown Freeze directions: 1. Only bake for 10 to 15 minutes until set but not golden brown yet. 2. Allow to cool completely. 3. Cover with foil and place into a gallon sized freezer bag. 4. To bake later allow to defrost completely. 5. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 6. Place in the oven and bake for 10-20 minutes until golden brown. Note: *If making Mamaw sized rolls divide dough into 16 even rolls and follow all remaining directions.
