You will need (I am halving the recipe so if you are making them for Thanksgiving, then double it):
- 2 cups warm water (the temperature is important for the yeast to work right so room temp is always best)
- 1 1/2 Tbsp. yeast (the red star brand is her favorite)
- 1/2 tsp. sugar
Mix these ingredients together in a large bowl and wait a few minuets until bubbling then add:
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 Tbsp salt
- 1/2 stick of butter (soften)
- 5-6 cups flour (add more as needed)
Knead until all is blended. Bowl should scrape clean, if not it needs more flour. Let rise in bowl for 1 1/2 hours.
Put some flour on the counter and smash dough till even. Cut into circles (I just used a cup) and fold in half on a cookie sheet (use non-stick spray). Let rise for another 1 1/2 hours.
bake at 400 for 10 min.
You can also use this dough for:
- Bread sticks
- pizza dough
- bread
