"I love to make these out camping. After the meal I store leftovers in a zip-lock bag for breakfast (toasted on the grill with butter) or for lunch as rolls for sandwiches."

 

• Ready In: 1hr
• Ingredients: 7
• Yields: 24 Rolls Approx.

ingredients

• 1 package dry yeast
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg
• 3 tablespoons margarine or 3 tablespoons oil
• 1 cup warm milk
• 2 1⁄2 - 3 cups flour

directions

1. In large bowl dissolve sugar in the milk.
2. Sprinkle yeast over top of the milk.
3. Add remaining ingredients, using only 1 1/2 cup of flour.
4. Beat until smooth.
5. Continue mixing with hands adding flour to make a soft dough.
6. Cover and let raise until doubled.
7. I look for a sunny spot on the picnic table so that it will raise quicker.
8. Form into balls and place in a lightly oiled Pot.
9. Let raise until doubled.
10. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
11. For Dutch Oven users: About 6 or 8 coals on the bottom and 13 to 14 on top.
12. I rotate the lid and oven a 1/4 turn every 10 to 15 minutes to insure even cooking.
13. Do not be afraid to peak.
14. Cooler days may take a little longer and warmer days may not take as long.
15. Watch for the bread to pull away from the sides slightly and a nice light golden brown color on top.
16. Don't burn!
