Ingredients
  • 3 cups buttermilk at room temperature
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 Tbsp. dry yeast
  • 3 Tbsp. warm water
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • ½ - ¾ cup melted butter (I use 1 cube)
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • ½ cup- ¾ cup sugar
  • 4-5 cups flour
  • Additional ½ cup melted butter for brushing on rolls
Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, soften the yeast in water. Mix in 3 cups flour and buttermilk. Cover and let stand for 1 hour.
  2. When ready, milk in ½ cup melted butter, salt, sugar, baking soda, and 4-5 cups flours.
  3. Cover and let rise for one hour. Punch down dough. At this point, you can refrigerate the dough in a big bowl (covered) or you can roll it out. It will keep for up to a week in the fridge, and you can use it to make different types of rolls. If you make crescents, it will make 4 dozen rolls.
  4. Separate the dough into four balls. Each ball of dough makes a dozen rolls.
  5. Roll out dough to ½ inch thick. Using a pizza cutter, cut into quarters. Then, cut each quarter into thirds. Brush each piece with melted butter and roll up, starting at the wide end.
  6. Place on baking sheet and brush each roll with melted butter. Cover with dish towel and let rise for about 2½ hours before baking.
  7. Bake at 375 for 10 minutes or until golden. Brush with additional butter if desired.
