Ingredients

  • 2 cupWater
  • 1 cupquick-cooking oats
  • 3 tbspButter
  • 1 package(1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • ⅓ cupwarm water (110° to 115°)
  • ⅓ cupBrown Sugar, packed
  • 1 tbspSugar
  • 1 tspSalt
  • 4to 5-1/4 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil; add oats and butter. Cook and stir for 1 minute. Remove from the heat; cool to lukewarm.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the oat mixture, sugars, salt and 4 cups flour; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.

    Punch dough down; allow to rest for 10 minutes. Shape into 18 balls. Place in 2 greased 9-in. round baking pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.

  5. 5

    Preheat oven to 350°; bake rolls until golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks.
