Directions:
Mix yeast, warm water, 1 T. sugar and 1 T. flour. Let set a little while. Melt margarine and pour buttermilk into it to warm. Add sugar, baking powder, salt and beaten eggs to melted butter. Add yeast mixture. Stir in flour and work until the dough is no longer sticky. Let rise until doubled. Make into small balls and place about 1 1/2” apart on greased baking sheet or in pan. Let rise again until doubled in size.

Press down center of dough balls to form a small reservoir for cooked fruit. (See separate recipe "Fruit Filling for Kolaches.") Place a small amount of cooked fruit into reservoir. Bake in 375° oven for about 12-15 minutes, being careful not to over bake. Drizzle with lemon juice/powdered sugar glaze.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Because Aunt Georgia used buttermilk and baking powder in her kolache dough, the bread was very tender. I remember Grandmother Lack (sister of Georgia) using this recipe as well in later years.
