How to Make Big Batch Buns
- In a large bowl, combine 1 ¾ cups warm water (105-115°F), ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together ¾ cup granulated sugar, 1 cup dry milk powder, 2 teaspoons salt, ½ cup vegetable oil, 6 cups all-purpose flour, and ½ cup warm water.
- Gently stir the yeast mixture into the dry ingredients mixture. Gradually add more flour, about 1 cup at a time, until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10-15 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a large, oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough to release the air. Divide the dough into portions according to your desired baked goods (e.g., rolls, cinnamon rolls, breadsticks).
- Shape the dough portions and bake according to your chosen recipe instructions. Basic baking instructions for rolls/buns: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
