Ingredients
-
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
-
1/4 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
-
1 teaspoon plus 1/4 cup sugar divided
-
1 cup warm milk (110° to 115°)

1/2 cup shortening

1-1/2 teaspoons salt

1 egg, beaten

3-3/4 to 4 cups all-purpose flour

Melted butter

Poppy seeds
Directions
-
1.
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add 1 teaspoon of sugar; let stand for 5 minutes. Beat in milk, shortening, salt, egg and remaining sugar. Add enough flour to form a soft dough.
-
2.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

3.
Punch the dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 18 pieces. Shape into balls. Place in greased muffin cups. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.

4.
Brush tops with butter; sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake at 375° for 11-13 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks.
