Duggars' Homemade Yeast Rolls
Makes 16 rolls
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup shortening
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 packages yeast
- 5 cups flour, plus flour for kneading
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups hot water
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
Directions:
- Combine the shortening, sugar, salt, yeast, and 2 cups of the flour in a large bowl and cut with a pastry cutter.
- Beat 2 eggs in a 2-cup measuring cup, then fill cup to the 2-cup mark with hot water; pour over the dry mixture. Slowly add the remaining 3 cups flour.
- Cover bowl loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for 20 minutes in a warm oven. Then pour the dough onto a floured surface. Knead. Flatten with hands into a large pizza shape.
- Cut with pizza cutter into 16 triangle-shaped slices. Roll up from the wide end to the point. Place the rolls in two greased 9x13-inch pans, bending into crescent shapes and leaving space for the rolls to double in size.
- Let rise in a warm (but not hot!) oven at least 20 minutes. Remove from oven.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake the rolls for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on how brown you prefer. When done, immediately brush with the melted butter.
