Buttermilk Rolls

(12 servings)

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup shortening
  • 1 package yeast
  • 1/4 cup warm water
  • buttermilk
Sift dry ingredients together. Mix in shortening. Add yeast dissolved in warm water. Add enough buttermilk to make a soft dough. Knead until smooth. Make into rolls and let rise until double. Bake at 400 degrees until golden brown.


Add the buttermilk slowly - just enough to make the dough pliable. This dough will keep for several days in the refrigerator.
