Dinner Rolls from Johnny

Makes 12 rolls


1 cup plus 2 Tbsp warm water

1/3 cup olive oil

2 Tbsp active dry yeast

1/4 Cup Sugar

1/2 -1 tsp salt

1 egg

3 1/2 cup white flour

In mixer bowl combine the water, oil, yeast, and sugar and allow it to rest for 10 minutes or until bubbly.  Using your dough hook, mix in the salt, egg and flour.

Kneed with hook until well incorporated and dough is soft and smooth (just a few minutes) if dough seems too wet add a little additional flour, a tablespoon at a time.

Form dough into 12 balls and then place in a greased 9 x 13 pan.  

Let them rise for 1-3 hours before baking.  I let them sit on the counter covered with plastic wrap then pop them in the oven just before eating.  

Bake for 10 - 15 minutes at 400 degrees or until golden brown and cooked through.
