Instructions
Bread Starter
- Mix the water, bread flour, and milk
- Cook over medium heat on the stovetop until it reaches a pudding-like texture. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
Yeast Mix
- Whisk together sugar and water in a small bowl until mixed well.
- Sprinkle yeast on top while continuing to stir.
- Let sit until the mixture becomes frothy.
Dinner Rolls
- Add milk and shortening to a large glass mixing bowl.
- Heat in microwave for 30 seconds at a time until warm.
- Pour into the mixer bowl and add applesauce, sugar, eggs, salt, and bread starter mix. Whisk lightly.
- Add the yeast mixture to the mixer bowl.
- Combine the bread flour and whole wheat flour.
- Add 1/3 of the flour to the mixer bowl and mix with a dough hook.
- Now add the remaining flour and knead for approx. five minutes, adding more flour as needed. The dough will be soft but not overly sticky.
- Place the dough ball into a large greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size. About 1-1½ hrs.
- Preheat oven to 325°
- Punch down the dough to release air and shape it into rolls. You should get about 3 dozen rolls.
- Line baking sheet with parchment paper and place rolls on a sheet. Rolls should be about ½ inch apart.
- Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise again until double.
- Bake at 325° until rolls are a light golden brown (approximately 10-15 minutes).
- Remove from the oven, cool for about 10-minutes in a pan, and then remove rolls to cooling racks.
- Brush the top of rolls with butter and allow to cool.
