Honey Party Buns
Ingredients
1 cup butter or margarine, cut into pieces
1/2 cup honey
2 cup boiling water
2 package dry yeast (1/4 oz each)
1/3 cup warm water (110-115 degrees)
2 eggs, beaten
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
3 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
4 cup all-purpose flour (up to 4-1/2 cups, if needed)
1 sliced ham, cheese and lettuce, opt, .
Preparation
Place butter and honey in large mixing bowl; pour the boiling water
over and set aside to cool to 110-115 degrees. In a small bowl,
dissolve yeast in warm water; set aside. To honey mixture, add eggs,
baking powder and salt. Add yeast mixture and whole wheat flour;
beat until smooth. Stir in enough all-purpose flour to form a soft
dough. Turn onto a floured board; knead until smooth and elastic,
about 8-10 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease
top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
Punch dough down; divide in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll
each half to 1/2 inch thickness; cut with a 2-1/2 inch cutter. Place
on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise in a warm place until
doubled, about 1 hour. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or
until golden brown. Remove from pans to cool on wire racks. Make into
small sandwiches, if desired, by filling with ham, cheese and
lettuce, or serve plain. Yield: 4-5 dozen. (I would think you could
fill them with anything you liked, ham salad, chicken salad,
whatever!)
