Soft Onion Sandwich Rolls

Description

This is it! I’ve been through many recipes to come up with this one. Great for BBQ beef sandwiches. If you prefer plain rolls, omit onion ingredients.

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup lukewarm milk
  • 5 tablespoons lukewarm water
  • 3 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt
  • 3 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 3 tablespoons dried minced onion
  • ¼ cup instant potato flakes
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • ¼ cup dried minced onion

Instructions

  1. Place the milk
  2. water
  3. butter
  4. salt
  5. sugar
  6. onion powder
  7. 3 tablespoons of dried onion
  8. potato flakes
  9. flour and yeast into the pan of a bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select the Dough cycle
  10. and press Start.
  11. When the cycle has completed
  12. remove the dough from the machine
  13. and knead on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 8 equal pieces
  14. and form into balls. Gently flatten the balls until they are 4 inches in diameter. If they keep shrinking back
  15. just let them relax for a minute before flattening. Place on a baking sheet
  16. and cover loosely with a towel. Set in a draft-free place to rise until doubled in size
  17. about 40 minutes.
  18. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Whisk together the egg white and water in a cup. Brush over the tops of the risen rolls
  19. and sprinkle with remaining minced onion.
  20. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven
  21. until golden brown. Cool completely
  22. then slice in half horizontally before using.
