Recipe Swap: Bread Machine Dough Recipe




Hello to you—thanks for stopping by! Wishing you an AWESOME day today! School is back in session and quickly we are back into the “rat race” of a busy schedule. Days have been cold—but it is January! Keep warm when you go out!


This week’s recipe swap is for a dough recipe that I’ve tweaked into a “bread machine” recipe! My family members are true BREAD LOVERS! We love any and every kind of bread! My bread machine is almost 20 years old—but still working well. 

The original recipe is here at this link. Here, posted, is the tweaked dough recipe. I have made it several times —our favorite recipe for this dough - “Pigs in a Blanket”!

Bread Machine Roll Recipe

4 1/2 tsp "Bread Machine" Yeast

3/4 cup warm Water

1/2 cup Sugar

1 tsp Salt

2 Eggs
3/4 cup Butter Flavored Crisco Shortening
4 cups All-purpose Flour

Dissolve yeast in the warm water, along with the sugar. After the yeast is activiated—about 5 minutes; pour into the bottom of the bread machine pail. Add the 2 eggs, salt, flour and shortening on top. Set machine for dough and let the magic begin. When the dough setting is complete—drop out the dough unto a floured surface and roll out dough (for crescent rolls—I make 2 balls of dough; roll out into a circle and cut into triangles) For "pigs in the blanket"—I roll out a long rectangle and cut into smaller rectangles—wrapping around a wiener.) Place shaped rolls on a greased baking sheet and cover. Let rise until dough is doubled ( about 1 hour). Bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Enjoy!

Thanks for stopping by!  Hope you are having a great week!  Remember to hug the ones you love the most, until next time...
