Ingredients

  • 1 cake yeast
  • 1/2 c. sugar
  • 1 c. lukewarm water
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 c. shortening or oleo (can be melted but not necessary)
  • 4 c. flour

Method

  • Dissolve yeast and sugar in water.
  • Then beat in eggs.
  • Mix everything together except flour.
  • Then mix 1 cup flour at a time. Mixture quite gooey, best to put in refrigerator and chill if you have time.
  • Work with 1/2 amount of dough, knead slightly using just small amount of flour to keep from sticking.
  • Roll out to about an 8 or 9-inch circle about 1/4-inch thick.
  • Then cut into 8 wedges pie shaped.
  • Roll big end first to point.
  • Put into oblong pan or cookie sheets and let rise for 1 1/2 or 2 hours. Before dough is worked it can be stored in refrigerator up to two weeks, covered with damp cloth and plate, and kneaded down occasionally.
  • Bake at 400° for 10 minutes.
