Mix well. Add flour as needed and mix well. Blend at medium-low speed for about 5-10 minutes, scraping down sides of the bowl once or twice. Cover bowl with plastic wrap; let rise in bowl about 1 hour or till doubled.<\/p>\n<p>Remove the plastic wrap and turn mixer on low to &#8220;punch down&#8221; the dough; if you wish, you can let the dough rise a second time as it makes for a more flavorful roll. Remove the dough from the bowl and divide into 36 rolls. The dough will be very sticky.<\/p>\n<p>Place rolls, edges just touching, in a buttered 9&#8243;x13&#8243; or 9&#8243; round pan. Cover pan with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled, about 30-40 minutes. Brush with reserved butter before baking or an egg wash.<\/p>\n<p>Bake at 300 degrees Fahrenheit convection oven or 350 degrees Fahrenheit conventional oven until golden.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/80l7p44g40g1tthgg34ewzoc3a.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/rolls.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-4087043\" src=\"http:\/\/80l7p44g40g1tthgg34ewzoc3a.wpengine.netdna-cdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/rolls-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"rolls\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/TheCommunityOfJesus\/~4\/yvDSj9DWuBg\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Gourmet Nun There is no meal so plain or so elaborate that cannot be enhanced by the addition of freshly baked homemade bread.
