I don't have a bread machine so I mixed the dough and kneaded it for 8 minutes in my Bosch mixer. I used King Arthur white wheat flour and bread flour. It made 12 HUGE rolls (next time I'll make them a bit smaller) that I baked for 20-25 minutes at 350. The bread was a nice light texture with a wonderful taste. The dough is devine to work with! Love the recipe, thanks for posting it!

I love to cook! My husband is very thin so he can eat anything!! He was raised on a farm so was a meat and tater man. Used to say anything other than meat and taters was exotic food.
<br>We've been married 40+ years so he is used to my experiments.
