Use and Care Manual
31
1¾ teaspoons active dry yeast
3 tablespoons warm water (105°F to 110°F)
3 cups bread flour
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
1 egg, lightly beaten
1. In a small saucepan, combine the milk, butter and sugar. Warm over low heat
until the butter is melted. Remove from heat and set aside until cooled to
room temperature.
2. Dissolve the yeast in the warm water in a large measuring cup. Let stand
5 minutes, or until mixture is foamy. Put the flour and salt in the work bowl
of a Cuisinart
®
Food Processor fitted with the dough, or metal chopping
blade and process for 10 seconds. Add the melted butter mixture and egg
to the yeast/water mixture. With the machine running, slowly add the liquids
through the feed tube and process until a dough ball forms. Continue pro-
cessing for 45 seconds to knead the dough. Shape the dough into a smooth
ball, put it in a clean mixing bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a
warm place until the dough has doubled in size, about 60 minutes.
3. Lightly butter a 9-inch round baking pan. Punch down the dough and divide
into 12 equal pieces (about 1½ to 1¾ ounces each). Roll into smooth rounds
and arrange in the prepared pan.
4. Put the pan onto the rack in Position 1. Select Proof with temperature set to
90°F for 45 minutes. Rolls should be about doubled in size.
5. Remove pan and preheat oven by selecting Bake with High Speed fan at
350°F for 15 to 20 minutes. While the oven is heating, melt the remaining
tablespoon of butter and combine with the remaining tablespoon of milk in a
small bowl. Gently brush the tops of the rolls with butter/milk mixture. Once
the oven beeps to signal that it is preheated, put the pan into the oven in
Position 1 and bake rolls for 15 minutes, or until golden brown and an internal
temperature of 190°F is reached.
6. Remove rolls from the pan and cool slightly before serving.
