Finger or Dinner Rolls

Oven, in the book's wordsA fairly hot oven

Ingredients

Directions

The book says “a fairly hot oven”. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.

  1. Pinch off pieces of dough the size of a small egg.

  2. Roll each piece into a ball, then shape into a 6-inch long roll, tapering at the ends.

  3. Place rolls 1 inch apart on a greased baking sheet.

  4. Let rise until tripled in size.

  5. Brush with milk and bake for about 20 minutes at 400°F (200°C).
