Then make a hole in the flour and after the yeast is risen pour yeast to flour, plus ¼ cup water, to clean milk and yeast from dish, with a wooden spoon, hand or mixer, start working the ingredients together.Â
Using the ½ cup flour to work the dough if needed.The dough should be sticky at first and then while working dough together it will get more manageable.Â

Put it in a warm area in the kitchen and let it rise for 30 minutes.
After removing the towel and lid and preparing muffin pans, spraying them with oil or butter.Â
Cut two small pieces of dough and form into each muffin cup. Have one piece on each side to make two bumps.
After all the dough is used, cover the pans with a towel and let rise for 30 minutes, when ready, preheat the oven to 350ºF and bake for 20 to 30 minutes, or depending on your oven.…Â

I loved this video — so genuine and friendly :o) And I made the rolls and loved them, too! Thankyou Bonita and Aunt Clara.
I’ve been bingeing on your videos lately, Bonita (especially the bread-making ones) — and like your approach so much, I’ve ordered your new cookbook (should have it this week — hooray!). At seventy years of age, I’d sworn never to buy another cookbook, but (as they say) never say never :o) I like ‘print’ books — but I’ll still be (virtually) popping into your kitchen to enjoy your demos and your smile :o)
Cheerio!
