Directions: |
Directions:** Do not get the yeast hot! It needs to be warm. If it gets too hot, you'll kill the yeast and your dough will not rise. It will cook into a rock that smells really good though.
Dissolve yeast and 1 T sugar in the warm water. Let sit about 5 minutes.
When mashed potatoes are just warm, add them to the yeast mixture.
Add the rest of the ingredients to the potato/yeast mixture.
add enough flour to make a soft dough. kneed well.
For dinner rolls, tear and roll into a golf ball size. place them touching in a well-oiled 9 x 13 pan.
When you roll it out for cinnamon rolls, keep it thick.
Spread lots of softened butter on the dough.
Sprinkle brown sugar then cinnamon and optional raisins and chopped nuts.
Spray top with Pam cooking spray. Cover very loosely with Saran wrap then a towel.
Let rise in a warm place about 45 min or until doubled. In the oven with just the oven light on is a good warm place that's not too hot. Keep an eye on them.
For cinnamon rolls, add a dab of butter the center of each after they rise and just before you put them into the oven.
Bake at 350 for about 45 minutes or until they're nicely browned. Watch them to learn your oven. |

Notes: Optional: Grandma made her bread into Dill Bread that she served with Beef Soup/Stew. She added sour cream, cottage cheese, and fresh or dry dill. When I was little, she bought Dill bread at Johnny's Supermarket and loved it so much she made it from scratch.
