Hawaiin Rolls

Delicious! The pineapple juice comes through and gives them a sweet finish.

• Ready In: 2 hrs 25 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 1  tablespoon  yeast
• 3  eggs
• 3⁄4 cup  pineapple juice
• 1⁄2 cup water
• 1⁄2 cup sugar
• 1⁄2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1  teaspoon vanilla or 1  coconut extract
• 1⁄2 cup butter
• 6 -7  cups flour

Directions

1. I hand kneaded it all, almost literally slamming it onto the counter, stretching it out, and folding it on itself until it felt right.
2. I let it rise for ninety minutes, checked on it, and it was ready. I gently laid it on the counter top, and simply weighed out 4 oz. dough strips. Shaped them with one hand into balls for surface tension, and then I pressed them with a hamburger press actually, just to make it more uniform. Placed them on parchment lined baking sheets, let those rise for 40-45 minutes, and then popped em in a 350 degree preheated oven for 20 minutes.
3. Did the first batch at 25 minutes, and the bottoms were almost on the edge of being burnt. I was worried about that because of all the sugar, at 20 minutes they were PERFECT.
