Steps:
- 1. Use your bread machine to mix and knead the dough and you will get a much more tender roll than if you mixed and kneaded by hand. In the order suggested by your bread machine manufacturer add the ingredients and half of the butter.
- 2. Grease a 13x9" pan with 2 tablespoon butter (reduce this to 1 tablespoon if not using pizza stone).
- 3. Set bread machine to the dough cycle. My machine's cycle is 1 hour 20 minutes. Remove the dough from the pan and let rest for 10 minutes, covered with a damp, clean tea towel.
- 4. Divide dough into 12 equal pieces and shape into balls. Place into the greased baking dish 3 across and 4 down. They fit perfectly in a 9x13" pan. Cover again with a damp tea towel and let rise for 30 - 40 minutes until ALMOST doubled.
- 5. Bake in a pre-heated 350 oven for 22 - 25 minutes. check them at 20 minutes. THIS PART IS IMPORTANT - bake on a pizza stone if you have one and make sure you put them in the bottom third of the oven or the bottom of the rolls will be pale and soggy. Preheat the oven for at least 20 minutes to make sure the stone is really hot. If you do not have a pizza stone well you should definitely get one but bake the rolls on the bottom rack of your oven.
- 6. If they brown too fast you can lay a sheet of foil over them after 15 minutes. Remove them from the oven and brush them with softened butter - go ahead, don't be shy, use 2 Tablespoons.. do it. Just do it.
- 7. Notes:I just put my water, milk and butter in a small pan on low to heat while i measure everything out. You can do this by hand just make sure to knead for about 10 minutes till dough is elastic and no longer sticky. Machine makes it a breeze. Kitchen-aid mixer will knead it for you in about 5-7 minutes. These are substantial rolls and sometimes people can only eat one and may not even finish that so you can make 24 rolls just divide dough in 24 even amounts but still use 9x13. Be sure and use real butter, no margarine. Also if you do not have bread flour then regular flour will work almost as good.

Steps:
- Butter a 9 by 13-inch baking pan.
- Combine the sugar, butter, honey, orange juice and zest in a saucepan and bring to a boil; boil until slightly thickened. Pour the glaze into the prepared pan, and scatter the nuts over the top.
- Sprinkle yeast over warm milk with a pinch of the granulated sugar; set aside until foamy, about 5 minutes. Melt 1/4 cup butter and whisk into yeast with vanilla and egg yolk.
- Whisk the flour, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in yeast mixture to make a sticky dough. Knead the dough on a floured work surface until soft and elastic, 6 to 8 minutes. (Dough will be soft and elastic, but not terribly sticky.) Shape into a ball, brush with a little melted butter and put into a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Knead the dough and reform into a ball. Return to the bowl, cover with buttered plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours.
- Roll the dough into 10 by 18-inch rectangle with a long edge facing you. Spread soft butter over the surface. Whisk 1/3 cup sugar and cinnamon together, scatter over butter. Roll into a long tight cylinder; pinch long edge to seal. Cut into 1 1/2-inch rolls with string or dental floss. Evenly space the rolls in the pan. Cover and let rise, at room temperature, until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Bake until golden, 30 to 35 minutes. Rest at room temperature 10 minutes, unmold, and serve warm.
BIG BATCH BUNS
My mother and I used to whip this up and make all kinds of things: bread, cinnamon rolls, bread sticks, roll little balls of dough in cinnamon and sugar and fry them, roll little balls in melted butter then coat with cinnamon and sugar and put them in a bundt pan for coffee cake....anything we could think of. (and I mean we'd make all those things out of one recipe - that's why it's called Big Batch Buns!!) We'd get one thing baking in the oven and then ask, "what else should we make?" We'd spend all day baking. Ahhh, great memories. I honestly have to say; servings, prep and baking time are a total guess. It depends what you make and how many things you make. :-)

Steps:
- Mix the 1 3/4 cup water, sugar and yeast in a large container and let sit to raise.
- Mix the 3/4 cup sugar, dry milk, salt, oil, flour and hot water.
- Stir both mixtures together and add flour as needed to make dough that is not sticky. (This will be at least 8 cups, maybe more!).
- Kneed for 15 minutes until dough is elastic (this is where the fun family time comes in - let each kid kneed for 5 minutes -- ) Place in a LARGE oiled bowl, cover and place in warm, draft free area to rise. (We always used the large - 32 cup - Tupperware bowl with the lid sealed on. When the lid pops off, it's ready to punch down.).
- Punch down and separate, divide and create!
- Basic baking instructions are to bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your buns.
- Make sure your yeast is active. If you're using active dry yeast, proof it in warm water with a little sugar before adding it to the dough.
- Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help to develop the gluten in the flour, which will give your buns a chewy texture.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will allow the yeast to produce carbon dioxide gas, which will make your buns light and fluffy.
- Bake the buns at a high temperature until they are golden brown. This will give them a crispy crust and a soft, fluffy interior.
Conclusion:
These great big poufy buns are perfect for any occasion. They're soft, fluffy, and delicious, and they're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make bread recipe, give these buns a try. You won't be disappointed!
