When a family dinner rolls (maybe a wee bit of pun intended) around, where the main meat is turkey, it’s mandatory to have dinner buns. Dinner buns are the basis for midnight turkey sandwiches! And for those of you who want to have homemade rolls, I found an excellent recipe in the 250 Best Canadian Bread Machine Baking Recipes cookbook. They got rave reviews from all who ate them and even the Hubby proclaimed them the best buns I’ve ever made.
The best part of this recipe is that the dough is done in the bread machine and you only need to let the dinner rolls rise for 30 minutes, then bake off. I made them the day before, keeping sealed in a ziploc or beeswax bag. To make sure each roll were the same size, I pulled out my scale, weighed the dough and divided by 12, then weighed each roll.
Layer the ingredients in the order listed.
