Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 TBSP yeast
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup canola oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3-3 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 egg whisked with 1 tsp water (for textured top)
  • 2 TBSP melted butter (for brushing)

Instruction

  • In a large bowl, dissolve sugar in warm water. Add yeast; let stand for 5 minutes.
  • Add the canola oil, egg, salt and enough flour to form a soft dough. Knead for 5 minutes.
  • Form dough into a smooth ball. Keeping the dough in the bowl, spray with non-stick spray and cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place for 15 minutes.
  • Punch down dough. Knead for 1 minute. Take the dough and divide it into 12 portions. Shape each ball dough by rolling it gently into a ball and tucking the sides underneath so that the roll looks smooth.
  • Place rolls in a greased 9x13 pan. Brush each with egg wash on the top of each roll to give them that smooth, shiny crust.
  • Let rolls rest and rise while oven is preheating to 425 degrees F, or about 10 minutes.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, until rolls are golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes, then brush with butter and serve.
