Bread for Cinnamon Rolls

Very old recipe from a hand written cookbook from Neligh Ne. Recipe uses cake yeast but I am putting dried yeast in. No filling in this recipe but I do have filling recipes that you could use.

• Ready In: 4 hrs 30 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 2  teaspoons  yeast
• 1⁄2 cup warm water
• 6  tablespoons  lard
• 2  cups milk, scalded
• 2  eggs, beaten
• 6  cups flour
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄2 cup sugar

Directions

1. Proof yeast in warm water.
2. Add lard to hot milk; cool.
3. Add yeast mixture.
4. Add beaten eggs.
5. Stir in flour and salt.
6. Let rise until doubled.
7. Punch down; let rise again.
8. Punch down; roll out and put in pan.
9. That is all that is written in this recipe.
10. Bake 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes, I am guessing. I have cinnamon goop recipes from other old recipes.
