Can Do Quick Sweet Dough
By: kittycatmom
Nov 19, 2008
My Grandma raised 6 kids, and has oodles of Grandchildren and Great-Grandchildren. She loved to bake — most of her recipes were from memory. Before she passed away, I was able to watch her make this dough and wrote the measurements down. It is a favorite of all the family, so I wanted to share it with everyone. Good for cinnamon rolls, or dinner rolls
SERVES 24
Ingredients
- 2 (1/4 ounce) packages dry yeast
- 1/2 cup warm water (105-115 degrees)
- 1 1/4 cups buttermilk
- 2 eggs
- 5 1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
Directions
1
Dissolve yeast in the warm water in a large mixing bowl. Add buttermilk, eggs, 2 1/2 cups flour, butter, sugar, baking powder and salt.2
Blend 30 seconds on low speed, scraping sides and bottom of the bowl.3
Beat 2 minutes on medium speed. Stir in remaining 3 cups of flour. Dough should be soft and slightly sticky.4
Knead for about 5 minutes on a lightly floured board. Shape as desired. Let rise in a warm place until double. (about 1 hour -- depending on temperature) Dough is ready to bake if slight dent remains when touched. Bake at 375 degrees. I don't have a bake time, but 20 minutes is about standard. It is best to keep a close eye.

this sweet dough turned out out very well with the addition on the baking powder, I used it to make a cinnamon-nut bread, I got one medium loaf and one mini loaf, will use this recipe again, thanks Kitty!

(This may be my second review posted as I don't see the first one I did, so this one is shorter!) Great recipe!! I have made it twice in the past week. Once as cinnamon rolls with 2 cups of whole wheat flour substituted for 2 c. of white flour and tonight with all white flour, a cranberry, strawberry cream cheese filling. Both were excellent. Easy, only needs to rise once and versatile. Love this recipe! I am sure your Grandma is smiling down knowing you have shared this wonderful recipe.
