60 Minute Rolls Food Processor Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, thoroughly mix 1 1/2 cups flour, sugar, salt and undissolved dry yeast. Set aside.
• In a saucepan, combine milk, water and margarine or butter.
• Heat over low heat until liquids are very warm (120 to 130 degrees F). (Margarine does not need to melt).
• Gradually add warm milk mixture to the dry ingredients.
• Beat at medium speed for 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. (I use my KitchenAid Mixer).
• Add 1/2 cup flour and beat at high speed for 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally.
• Stir in enough additional flour to make a soft dough.
• Turn dough out onto lightly floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
• Place in a greased bowl, turning to grease the top.
• Cover and place the bowl over a pan of water that is about 98 degrees.
• Let rise for 15 minutes.
• Punch dough down and turn out on a lightly floured board.
• Shape into rolls and place them on a well grease pan.
• Cover and let rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 15 minutes or until almost doubled in bulk.
• Bake at 425 degrees F for about 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine 3 1/2 cups flour, sugar, salt and undissoloved yeast in bowl.
• Attach bowl and dough hook. Turn to speed 2 and mix for 1 minute.
• Combine milk, water and margarine in a saucepan. Heat over low heat, until liquids are very warm (120 to 130). Margarine does not need to melt.
• Turn to speed 2 and gradually add liquid to flour mixture, about 30 seconds. Mix 1 minute longer. Continue on speed 2, adding remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, as needed. Mix until dough clings to hook, about 5 minutes.
• Knead dough on speed 2 for 7-10 minutes longer, or until dough is smooth and elastic. Stop.
• Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover, let rise in a warm place 15 minutes.
• Turn dough out onto floured board. Divide in half and shape as desired. Cover; let rise in slightly warm oven (about 90 degrees) for 15 minutes or until doubled in bulk [usually 15 minutes works just fine!].
• Bake at 425, for 12 minutes, or until nice and brown. Remove from baking sheets and cool on wire racks.
• I usually make balls. But for something fancy you can make one of the following:.
• Curlicues: Divide dough in half and roll each half to 12x9 inch rectangle. Cut 12 equal strips about 1 inch wide. Hold one end of strip firmly and wind tightly to form a coil, tucking ends underneath. Place on greased baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
• Cloverleafs: Divide dough into 24 equal pieces. Form each piece into a ball and place in greased muffin pan. With scissors, cut each ball in half, then quarters, cutting through to almost bottom of rolls.

Steps:

• Mix thoroughly in large bowl: 1½ cups flour, sugar, salt and undissolved yeast.
• Combine milk, water and margarine in a saucepan.
• Heat over low heat until liquids are very warm (120º-130ºF). Butter does not need to melt.
• Gradually add to dry ingredients and beat 2 minutes at medium speed with electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally.
• Add ½ cup flour, beat at high speed 2 minutes.
• Stir in enough additional flour to make a soft dough.
• Turn onto light floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
• Place in greased bowl, turning to grease top.
• Cover, place bowl in pan of water about 98ºF. Let rise 15 minutes.
• Turn dough out onto floured board.
• Roll golf-ball sized pieces with the dough.
• Place three balls of dough into each cup of greased muffin tin.
• Cover, let rise in warm place (about 90ºF) 15 minutes.
• Bake at 425º about 12 minutes or until done.
• Remove from muffin tin and let cool on wire rack.

Steps:

• I like to use my oven as an "incubator", which hastens the proofing of the dough. I simply turn my oven to WARM for two minutes, then shut it off. Dissolve the yeast in warm water and the sugar until it foams (5-10 minutes). In the meantime, melt the butter in the microwave, then the milk. Combine and allow to cool to about 110F. (You could use a saucepan, but the microwave is much easier for me-- I use 25 second increments.) Dump the milk and yeast mixture into the mixing bowl. Add about 2-1/2 cups flour, and salt, and mix with the dough hook. (Or, beat by hand). Mix for about a minute. With the mixer still going, add the remaining flour, a bit at a time and mix for another couple of minutes, or until the dough starts to clean the sides of the bowl. (I used 3 cups of flour, total). Knead on low speed for about 2 more minutes, or until dough is smooth and elastic - the dough will still be slightly sticky to the touch. Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning it to grease the top. Cover the dough with a clean, dry dish towel, (or plastic wrap) and let it rise in a warm place, free from draft (or in the incubated oven), for about 20 minutes. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface, and gently shape into a square. Divide into 9 or 12 pieces. I shape each roll by pulling them into a more circular shape then grab corners to the center and twist. Place the ball on a lightly floured surface, twist side down and gently grab and roll into a round ball. You can also make 27 or 24 small balls and make "clover leaf rolls". You then place3 mini dough balls into a greased muffin cup. Cover the rolls with the dish towel, and let the dough rise for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven for 425ºF. Bake for about 12 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown. Remove from pans immediately, and brush with 2 Tablespoons melted butter, immediately. Cool on a wire rack, and you can eat these within just a few minutes. The texture of these rolls are fluffy and this is now my "go to" recipe for bread rolls.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix 1 cup of flour, yeast, sugar, salt and powdered milk.
• Now add the 1-1/2 cups"hot" water and the butter; stir until the butter is melted.
• Add remaining 3 cups of flour, 1 cup at a time, and mix thoroughly (dough will be sticky).
• Let stand, covered with a dish towel, for 20-30 mins in a warm place.
• Turn dough out onto a floured surface.
• Knead a few times, adding a little flour as needed until dough is no longer sticky.
• Grease a 12 cup muffin pan.
• Pinch pieces of dough and place a piece in each prepared muffin cup.
• When pan is full, cover again and let sit 20-30 mins.
• While rolls are sitting preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Place rolls in oven and bake 10 mins or until rolls are golden brown on top.
• When roll are removed from oven brush with melted butter and serve hot.

Steps:

• 1. combine all dry ingredients in food processor pulse for 30 seconds. Heat milk and water and butter un till warm.
• 2. pour the egg in to processor as it is running. After dough is clinging together and off sides turn off. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
• 3. Roll out dough the size of your pan you will bake it in. Place in pan making sure it is tight against the sides. Cut dough with sharp knife. A 8 or 9 inch pan will bake 16 rolls. Place in warm area and let raise un till doubled, 20 to 30 minutes. Bake at 400 for 15 minutes or until done

Steps:

• Put yeast in 1/2 cup warm water (100 to 110 degrees F). Do not use hotter water or you might kill your yeast. Stir with a spoon until yeast is completely moistened. It will still be a bit lumpy. Let sit 5 to 10 minutes. Stir to ensure that there are no lumps remaining. If you are not sure your yeast is still alive, add a pinch of sugar. The yeast should foam within 5 to 10 minutes. This whole process is called "proofing the yeast".
• Meanwhile, beat egg with fork. Add 1/2 cup warm water. Add sugar and salt. Stir until mixed. Add the proofed yeast.
• Check your food processor manual to ensure that it is capable of mixing bread dough and what is the maximum amount of flour that it can handle. Note that this amount will be significantly less than the stated capacity of the processor. My Cuisinart Power Prep Plus has a stated 14 cup capacity but it can only handle bread dough made with a maximum of 4 cups of flour. If it cannot handle the full 4 cups of flour in this recipe, process the dough in multiple batches.
• If your processor has a separate dough blade, put this blade in the processor. Add the flour (Important: process the dough in separate batches if your processor can't handle the full 4 cups). Add the oil. Process briefly to mix the flour and oil.
• Turn the processor on (use the dough cycle if your processor has one). Slowly add the liquid through the feed tube. Process until the dough forms a ball. Then process until the dough is smooth and elastic (my processor takes about 30 seconds to get to this stage, but it could take as long as 90 seconds.). The dough ball will rotate around the processor bowl. Do not overprocess because the dough will heat up during processing and may get so hot that it kills the yeast.
• Note that depending on the humidity, the type of flour that you use, and the size of your egg, you may need more or less flour to make the right consistency dough. Most beginners use too much flour. The dough should still be slightly sticky but not so sticky that it "breaks" and sticks to a clean hand.
• Turn out onto a lightly floured board and form into a ball. This is your opportunity to check the texture and knead in a little flour if necessary. If it is too stiff and dry, return dough to processor and add a little more water, process until incorporated.
• Place the ball of dough into a lightly oiled bowl. Turn ball over to ensure all surfaces of the dough are lightly covered with oil. Cover bowl with kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Place in a warm place (80 to 85 degrees F is best) until doubled in size and an imprint made with your finger remains in the dough. (If you have a separate light switch in your oven, turn the light on when you begin your bread making process and let the bread rise in the oven. The light will warm the oven somewhat. You can also jumpstart the oven by warming it to the lowest setting, then turn the oven off and leave the door open until the temperature is reduced to no more than 90 degrees.).
• Turn dough out on floured board. Knead gently and cut dough in half. Let dough rest for 10 minutes. Work with one half of dough at a time.
• For braid: cut each dough half into 3 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long strand (each about 1 inch thick). Braid the strands. Pinch the ends of the loaf and tuck under. Place loaf on a greased baking sheet (I use vegetable shortening to grease my pans because it seems to release the bread better than oil).
• For traditional loaf: roll each dough half into a rectangle (about 1/2 inch thick). Turn so long edge is facing you. Fold right half over middle and press to seal. Fold left half over middle and press to seal. You should now have a rectangle that is as wide as your bread pan. Roll the rectangle up (starting at the short end), pressing with your fingers to seal the loaf well (If you don't do this step well you will have large air pockets in your bread). Pinch the ends of the loaf to seal. Place loaf in a greased loaf pan (I use vegetable shortening to grease the pan.). I use a slightly small bread pan (8 inches by 4 1/4 inches by 2 1/2 inches high) which yields a 1 lb loaf.
• Use your hands to rub oil on the top of the loaves. Cover with loose plastic wrap or a kitchen towel. Let rise until doubled. (Note that the dough will just have reached the top of the loaf pan (or less, depending on the size of your loaf pan)).
• If desired, beat 1 egg yolk with 1 teaspoon of water and carefully brush the top of the loaf. Sprinkle with coarse sugar, poppy seeds or sesame seeds if desired.
• Bake in a 325 to 350 degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes. In my oven, a 16 ounce loaf takes 27 minutes at 325 degrees. If you bake the bread too long, it will be somewhat dry and crumbly and will go stale faster. If you don't bake it enough, it will be doughy in the center, even when cool. Note that if you cut properly cooked HOT bread, it will seem a bit doughy. Let the bread cool slightly before cutting (I know that it is nearly impossible to wait).
• Some tips: If your bread is dry and crumbly you: added too much flour, cooked it too long, or let it get stale. If your bread is too dark you: had the oven too high (breads with more sugar will darken quicker) or baked it too long. If your bread has large holes you: didn't knead enough after the first rising to remove pockets of air or you didn't seal your loaf as you were forming it.
• If your braid is very flat you didn't have enough flour in the dough (note that this braided bread should only be about 3 inches tall. If you want a taller braided bread, stack a second (slightly smaller) braid on top of the first and bake slightly longer.
• If you find you enjoy making homemade bread, I suggest that you purchase your yeast in a 1 or 2 lb package at a warehouse type store. In my area (Ohio, USA) a 1/4 ounce (2 1/4 teaspoon) packet costs at least $.50 but a 2 lb package (equal to 128 packets only costs $3.49 -- a HUGE savings).
• This bread freezes well for up to 2 months. You can even pre-slice it.

Steps:

• 1. Mix the yeast, 2 Tbsp sugar, and the warm water in a 2 cup glass measuring cup or small bowl. Set aside to proof (not only starts the yeast working, but you will know your water was not too hot or your yeast dead, as well).
• 2. In a medium saucepan, heat the milk and the butter/oleo. DO NOT LET BOIL; you just want it warm.
• 3. Beat the 3 eggs, 2/3 cup sugar, and the salt together with a mixer set on medium for about 2 minutes.
• 4. Add the milk/oleo mixture and stir. Make sure this is not too hot or else you'll end up cooking the eggs.
• 5. Add the yeast mixture and stir.
• 6. Attach the dough hook to your mixer. Slowly add the flour and mix until a stiff dough forms.
• 7. The dough will pull away from the side of the bowl. You may or may not need all the flour. Sometimes it takes more, sometimes less (no idea why). IF MIXING BY HAND, ADD FLOUR UNTIL A STIFF STICKY DOUGH FORMS. EMPTY BOWL ONTO A FLOURED SURFACE AND WORK/KNEAD IN FLOUR UNTIL A SMOOTH DOUGH FORMS.
• 8. Grease whatever pan you will be baking in, be it a loaf pan or a 13X9 cake pan. Form your dough into either 2 loaves of bread or a bunch of rolls (depends on how big you make them) and set aside in a warm, draft-free place to rise. Cover with a damp dishtowel for more draft protection.
• 9. When the rolls/bread has doubled in size, bake in a 375 degree oven for 15-20 minutes until the tops are brown.
• 10. Bread is done when you thump the top with a knuckle and it sounds hollow.
