Making the dough
Ingredients:
To make these southern-style refrigerator yeast rolls, you'll need the following ingredients:
4 cups of all-purpose flour
1/4 cup of sugar
1 teaspoon of salt
1/4 cup of melted butter
1/4 cup of warm water
1 package of active dry yeast
1 cup of milk
2 eggs, beaten
To begin, mix the flour, sugar, and salt together in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, warm water, and yeast until the yeast is dissolved. Slowly add the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients and mix well. Next, add in the milk and eggs and continue to mix until a soft dough forms.
Tip: Adding melted butter to the dough helps to make the rolls extra soft and adds a delicious buttery flavor.
Kneading and shaping the dough
Once the dough is formed, turn it out onto a floured surface and knead for a few minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Next, shape the dough into a ball and place it in a greased bowl. Cover with a dish towel and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Tip: To ensure a warm and draft-free environment for the dough to rise, preheat your oven to its lowest setting for a few minutes, then turn it off before placing the dough inside.
Refrigerating and baking the rolls
After the dough has risen, punch it down and form it into golf ball-sized balls. Place the balls in a greased baking dish, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. When you're ready to bake, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Serve warm and enjoy the deliciousness!
Tip: If you're short on time, you can skip the refrigeration step and bake the rolls immediately after shaping them. However, refrigerating the dough allows the flavors to develop and results in a softer and fluffier texture.
In conclusion, these southern-style refrigerator yeast rolls are a must-try for any bread lover. With their soft and fluffy texture and delicious buttery flavor, they are the perfect addition to any meal. So, give this recipe a try and impress your family and friends with your baking skills. Happy baking!
