Quick & Easy Spoon Rolls

Nothing says frugal like making your own homemade rolls! And, they are sooooooo much better than the processed stuff you buy at the grocery! Give 'em a try. They're super easy, and so yummy!

3 3/4 packed cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup sugar
2 1/4 tsps (1 package) Rapid Rise Yeast
1 1/4 tsps salt
2 cups water
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 large egg, slightly beaten

In large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, yeast and salt. On stove or in microwave, heat water and butter together until butter is melted and mixture is 120 to 130 degrees. With dough whisk or large wooden spoon, stir into flour mixture along with beaten egg until blended. The dough will be very sticky. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 35 to 45 minutes.

Stir down dough (just a few strokes). With a 1/4 cup measure, scoop dough into well-greased or cooking-sprayed muffin tins, filling two-thirds full. Let rise, uncovered, 20 to 30 minutes, or until dough has risen to the top of the cups. During last 15 minutes, heat oven to 400 degrees.

Bake 20 minutes, or until rolls are golden brown. Let stand 5 minutes before removing from tins (if you can wait that long!).
