Ingredients:
- 2 packets dry active yeast
- 2 1/2 cups warm water
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 7 to 8 cups additional all-purpose flour
Instructions:
-
Mix yeast in warm water until dissolved.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry active yeast with warm water. Stir gently until the yeast is completely dissolved. -
Add the rest of the ingredients and enough flour to make the dough clean away from the bowl.
Once the yeast is dissolved, add the sugar, salt, eggs, and 2 cups of all-purpose flour to the bowl. Mix until well combined. Gradually add more flour, a cup at a time, until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl and forms a smooth, slightly sticky dough. -
Cover and place in the refrigerator (the dough should be a little sticky).
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel, ensuring it’s airtight. Place the bowl in the refrigerator to chill. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable. -
Let rise for 2 hours before using.
Allow the dough to rise in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. This slow rise will develop flavor and improve the texture of your baked goods. -
Dough will keep for a couple of weeks in the refrigerator.
This Cool Rise Bread Dough can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, making it a convenient option for busy bakers. -
Use with Bierox, cinnamon rolls, or hot rolls. Bake at 350 degrees.
Once the dough has risen and chilled, it’s ready to be shaped and baked into your desired treats. Whether you’re making savory bierox, indulgent cinnamon rolls, or classic hot rolls, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake until golden brown and delicious.
Enjoy the versatility and simplicity of this Cool Rise Bread Dough recipe, passed down from my mom’s kitchen to yours!
