LIGHT AS AIR BUNS

This was handed down from my mother, she made these many times and would usually just make a few batches at a time and freeze them. My brother loved them so much that for his birthday he would request them over cake. Of course he always got his way!

There are some other air bun recipes which are the same or similar to this... but this is one my mom always made at Christmas time so I'm posting it so I don't lose it :) we eat these as part of our cold Christmas Eve dinner every year.

MOM'S AIR BUNS (ROLLS)



Mom's Air Buns (Rolls) image

This recipe for light, soft, buns did NOT come from my Mom, but it is so good that I dedicate it to all Moms who bake bread..or anyone who bakes bread for that matter! I will give the original recipe, but I admit that I now use the ABM to knead the dough, and will give instructions for this variation at the end. Preparation time is the length of time for the "dough" cycle on my bread machine. For anyone wishing to make 100% whole wheat buns,(a variation of this recipe, and equally delicious IMHO), I have submitted it as recipe #168802 with minor alterations. More tweaking...I now like Mom's 100% Whole Grain Air Buns, recipe #186744 even better for a healthier version.

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 2h20m

Yield 16 buns

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup warm water
1/2 tablespoon yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup lard (I use shortening)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 1/4 cups warm water
1 1/2 cups white bread flour
3 cups more white bread flour

Steps:

  • Mix the 1/2 cup warm water, yeast, and 1 tsp sugar, and allow to proof.
  • Melt the lard, and mix in sugar, salt, vinegar, and warm water. When body warm, add the proofed yeast, and beat in 1 1/2 cups flour. Let rest for 15 minutes.
  • Knead in approximately 3 cups more flour.
  • Let dough rise till double (approximately 2 hours).
  • Deflate dough, and form into buns, any size, (I make 16 large) or loaves. Rise till double (takes approximately one hour, but depends on size/shape chosen).
  • Bake buns at 350°F for approximately 20 minutes.
  • For ABM, in my machine, on the "dough" cycle, I use 2 teaspoons of bread machine yeast, and I reduce the water to about 1 1/2 cups, the flour to 4 cups, adding a tad more water or flour as it kneads to get a smooth,soft ball of dough. I leave the other ingredients as posted.

AIRBUNS (HOMEMADE ROLLS)



Airbuns (homemade rolls) image

This is a recipe that has been in my husband's family for years. I started making these 30 years ago.

Provided by Vanessa Robertson @vcrobertson

Categories     Sweet Breads

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 package(s) rapidrise yeast
2 cup(s) sugar
1 teaspoon(s) sugar
17-19 cup(s) bread flour
4 eggs
3 teaspoon(s) himalayan salt
1-2 stick(s) crisco shortening
1 stick(s) butter

Steps:

  • Bowl #1 - 1 package of RapidRise yeast 1 tsp. sugar 1 c. WARM water Let this sit while you mix Bowl #2
  • Bowl #2 - 2 c. sugar 1 c. melted shortening (I use the Crisco sticks) 3 rounded tsp. salt
  • Bowl #3 - 5 c. WARM water 4 eggs (beaten)
  • Bowl #4 - Put 10 cups of flour in a HUGE bowl (16 inch diameter, 13 quart). Add bowls #1-#3 (mixed together) to the 10 cups of flour
  • Stir or mix with a mixer. You will only be able to use the mixer for a short time. Gradually add 7-9 cups of flour. The amount depends on atmosphere. You want the dough to be doughy, but not so sticky that it stays on your hands. Knead for 10-15 minutes. Begin to rise at around 4pm (give or take a little). I preheat my oven and then turn it off. I put a light beach towel over the bowl of dough in the oven with the door open. If the dough seems to be rising slowly, repeat pre-heating the oven and turning off to keep the dough warm. Punch out the air 2 hours after it starts rising and then 2-3 more times at one hour increments. I use the Crisco to cover my hands when punching down the dough. I also use Crisco to grease the pans. During the last "punch" time, it's time to put on the pans. As you grab a small pinch of dough, roll and smooth it before placing on the baking sheet. I can fit 12 on each baking sheet. I use disposable cookie sheets (16x11), but I wash these off and use them each year. The rolls seem to evenly bake on these better than anything else I've tried. Cover the rolls with light kitchen towels and make sure that the room is warm. If the room is too chilly, you can use a small space heater nearby to keep things warm. This is absolutely necessary for proper rising. Bake the next morning at 350 degrees for 13-15 minutes or until lightly browned on top. Smear the tops with butter when they come out of the oven. Makes about 75-100 buns.

Tips:

  • If you don't have a stand mixer, you can make the dough by hand. Just be sure to knead it well until it is smooth and elastic.
  • If you are using active dry yeast, you need to activate it before using it. To do this, dissolve the yeast in warm water (105-115°F) and let it sit for 5-10 minutes, or until it is foamy.
  • The dough should be sticky, but not too sticky. If it is too sticky, add a little more flour. If it is too dry, add a little more water.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will take about 1-2 hours.
  • When the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape the pieces into balls and place them in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • Let the rolls rise again in a warm place until they have doubled in size. This will take about 30-45 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F before baking the rolls.
  • Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  • Let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Air buns are a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed in many different ways. They are perfect for sandwiches, burgers, or simply slathered with butter and jelly. They are also a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. These homemade rolls are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like them plain or loaded with cheese and bacon, there is an air bun recipe out there for everyone. So next time you are in the mood for some fresh, homemade bread, give air buns a try.
