Categories     Pies

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

any pie crust recipe enough for bottom and top crust
3 stick butter or margarine
1 c apple cider vinegar
1/2 c sugar
1/2 c brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp nutmeg

Steps:

  • 1. Roll out dough made from your favorite pie crust recipe into a large circle. Sprinkle both sugars and spices on top of rolled out dough. Cut butter in pieces on top of dough and sugars. Roll dough up as if making cinnamon rolls or a jelly roll. Place in a greased pie pan. Pour apple cider vinegar on top of rolled up dough and let sit for 5 to 6 minutes. Cut a few more pieces of butter on top and also sprinkle some sugar on top also. Let bake about 30 to 40 minutes or until golden brown. Please test for doneness.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients, especially for the butter and flour. The better the ingredients, the better the rolls will be.
  • Make sure the butter is cold and cubed before adding it to the flour mixture. This will help create a flaky texture in the rolls.
  • Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the rolls tough.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place for at least an hour, or until it has doubled in size. This will help create light and fluffy rolls.
  • Bake the rolls at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help create a golden brown crust and a soft, tender interior.

Conclusion:

Old-fashioned butter rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make bread that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. These rolls are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and they can also be used to make sandwiches or sliders.
