Freezer Dinner Rolls

One of my favorite things to eat is bread, I like to have bread with most of the meals I make. This recipe is great for getting homemade dinner rolls whenever you would like them. All you have to do is make the rolls one day, put them in the freezer and take one out and bake it whenever you would like.

I found this recipe on http://www.recipelink.com/mf/31/9611

5 1/2 cups flour up to 6 1/2 cups
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 packages active dry yeast
1 1/4 cups water
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup margarine
2 large eggs

In a large bowl thoroughly mix 2 cups flour, sugar, salt and active dry yeast.

Combine water, milk and margarine in a saucepan. Heat until 120 to 130 degrees F. Margarine does not need to melt.

Gradually add to dry ingredients and beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add eggs and 1/2 cup flour. Beat at high speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in enough additional flour to make a soft dough. Turn out onto lightly floured board; knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes.


Cover with plastic wrap, then a towel, let rest 20 minutes.


Punch down dough again. Shape into desired shapes for dinner rolls. Place on greased baking sheets. Cover with plastic wrap and foil, sealing well. Freeze until firm.


Transfer to plastic bags. Freeze up to 4 weeks.

Remove from freezer; place on greased baking sheets. Cover; let rise in warm place, free from draft, until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours.

Bake at 350 degrees F 15 minutes, or until golden brown and done. Remove from baking sheets and let cool.
