Ingredients
1 cup Pineapple juice
1/2 cups Milk
85 gram Butter (room temperature)
1/4 cups Honey
5 cups Plain flour, sifted
2 tsp Yeast
2 tsp Salt
2 tsp Brown sugar
1 Egg (large)
1 tsp White vinegar
Directions
- Melt the butter in the microwave for 30 seconds or until just melted.
- Combine the melted butter, pineapple juice, milk and honey together in a microwave proof bowl. Microwave for one minute on medium heat or until the mixture is heated through. The milk may curdle, but that’s okay.
- Sift together the plain flour, yeast and salt. Pour in the pineapple mixture.
- Mix to combine. Then add the remaining ingredients.
- Transfer the mixture to a floured board and knead until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, and cover with plastic wrap. Allow it to rise in a warm place for two hours. A sunny window is perfect.
- Remove the plastic wrap and ‘punch’ down the dough. Give it another good knead, then separate the dough into 12 even balls.
- Grease a large baking tray, and arrange the 12 bread rolls at even spaces.
- Again, set the dough aside to rise in a warm place. Leave for another 90 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 160 degrees. Bake the rolls for 20 minutes or until golden.
- Serve warm.
- Recipe Hints and Tips:
- These bread rolls freeze really well. Once cooked and cooled, double wrap in plastic wrap and freeze for up to two months.
