Oatmeal Buns

Mix quick oatmeal and 2 cups boiling water.

Add salt, molasses, and shortening.

(Boiling water will melt the shortening.

) Let cool.

Then add eggs and dry yeast dissolved in ½ cup warm water.

Add 5½ – 6 cups flour.

Dough will be soft.

Let rise once, then form buns.

Grease hands as dough is sticky.

Let rise again.

Bake 20 minutes at 350º.

I use my Oster bread hooks for these.

Grease the top of the hooks so dough won’t climb them.

Easy & fast.
