Instructions:
1. In a mixer bowl dissolve quick-rising dry yeast and sugar in warm water and let it stand
until the mixture is slightly foamy.
2. Attach the dough hook to the mixer and turn to speed 2, add milk, oil,
egg, sugar, poppy seeds and salt.
3. Mix well until everything is combined -
about 30 seconds.
4. Gradually add flour to the batter and mix it until its
smooth for about 1 minute
5. Combine flour and chilled butter in a food processor or you can use a
pastry cutter until the mixture resembles a coarse
meal add this to the batter in the mixing bowl.
6. Turn to speed 2 and mix until the dry ingredients
are incorporated.
7. Knead on speed 2 until smooth,
about 2 minutes longer.
8. Add up to 1/3 of a cup of flour more if the dough remains sticky.
9. Remove the bowl from the mixer and cover with a towel and
let it rise in a warm place for 30 minutes
or until the dough nearly doubles
in size.
10. Now coat 2 12-cup muffin tins with non stick
cooking spray or butter.
11. On a floured surface knead dough for about 4 minutes until the
dough is smooth and elastic.
12. Divide the dough into 4 equal portions and place one portion
on a floured surface and refrigerate
the remaining portions.
13. Roll out the dough to a 12x12x1/8-inch rectangle.
14. Cut the dough lengthwise into 6 2-inch strips and stack the
strips to form 6 layers.
15. Cut the stacks into 6 equal portions, each about 2 inch squares.
16. Place each stack on their edge, cut side down in the prepared
muffin cups. Repeat with the
remaining dough sections.
17. Cover with a towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for
30 minutes or until nearly doubles in size.
18. After it has risen preheat your oven to 350 F.
19. Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter
and sprinkle with poppy seeds.
In Provo there is a bakery that we love, Shirley's and they have the best pull-aparts.
I am not going to make sweet rolls for
dinner tomorrow but will
make these Poppy Seed Pull-Aparts
instead.
HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!
