Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 3h40m

Yield 36 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups whole milk
1 cup canola oil
1 cup sugar
9 cups all-purpose flour
2 packages (2 1/4 teaspoons each) active dry yeast
1 heaping teaspoon baking powder
1 scant teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon salt
Melted butter, for the pans

Steps:

  • To make the dough: Combine the milk and canola oil in a large pot. Stir in the sugar. Scald the milk by heating it almost to a boil. Turn off the heat and let cool until warm.
  • Add 8 cups of the flour and the yeast to the milk mixture and stir until combined (it will be super sticky!). Cover the pot with a lid or dishtowel and let the dough sit until risen, an hour or so.
  • Sprinkle in the remaining 1 cup flour and the baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir gently to combine; it takes a while to get it stirred together.
  • To make the rolls: Drizzle a small amount of butter into 36 muffins cups (3 standard muffin pans). Pinch off small amounts of dough and roll into neat balls. Place 3 balls in each muffin cup.
  • Set the pans in a draft-free, slightly warm place; cover with a lightweight dish towel and allow the rolls to rise until light and puffy, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Bake until deep golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Serve piping hot.

CLOVERLEAF ROLLS

A basket of cloverleaf rolls might look humble sitting next to a burnished bird or a crown roast, but don't underestimate its importance at a meal. Buttery and salt-kissed, the little pillows are essential from beginning to end. Start dinner with a warm roll, maybe two, split and swiped with butter. End it with another one or two used to mop up the delicious dregs of gravy. Throw in a few more in the middle because they are just too good not to. Let's hope it is a big basket. Thank goodness the recipe doubles easily. They're at their very best served warm.

Time 40m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (1/4-ounce/2 1/4 teaspoons/7 grams) package active dry yeast
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 cup/120 milliliters whole milk, warmed to 105 to 110 degrees
6 tablespoons/85 grams unsalted butter, plus more for the pan
2 cups/255 grams all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for sprinkling
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Stir the yeast and 1 teaspoon of the sugar into the milk. Set aside until foamy, about 5 minutes. Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter.
  • Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer with the dough hook attached, combine the remaining sugar, flour and salt. With the mixer on low, add the yeast mixture and the egg and knead until the dry ingredients have been incorporated (you may have to help it along at first with a spatula) and the dough is smooth, about 5 to 10 minutes. Carefully add the melted butter (the dough will slosh around in the butter for a few minutes, but will eventually absorb it all) and continue to knead the dough until smooth, increasing the speed to medium, another 5 to 10 minutes. The dough will be shiny and elastic; if it's at all sticky, scrape down the sides of the bowl and gather the dough into a neat ball (no need to add extra flour). Cover the bowl with plastic and set aside to rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 to 2 hours.
  • Butter a standard 12-cup muffin tin. Gently tip the dough out onto a work surface. You shouldn't need flour at this point. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Work with one piece at a time and keep the other pieces covered. Divide each piece into 3 equal pieces, roll each piece into a tight ball and place into one cup. Repeat with the remaining dough. Cover the tray lightly with plastic wrap and set aside to double again, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. The dough should look puffy and spring back slowly when pressed gently.
  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Remove the plastic wrap and without deflating the dough, gently brush the rolls with butter. Bake until puffed and golden, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with more butter and sprinkle with salt. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use aged cheddar cheese.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be sure to knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, about 5-7 minutes. This will help to develop the gluten in the dough and make the rolls light and fluffy.
  • If you don't have a stand mixer, you can knead the dough by hand. Just be sure to knead it for a full 5-7 minutes.
  • Be careful not to overproof the dough. The rolls should be about doubled in size, but not too puffy. If they are overproofed, they will be dense and heavy.
  • To make sure the rolls are cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center of one of the rolls. If it comes out clean, the rolls are done.

Conclusion:

Cheddar Squash Cloverleaf Rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are soft, fluffy, and packed with flavor. The addition of cheddar cheese and squash makes them extra special. These rolls are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
