Sour Cream Bunny Buns
These sour cream dinner rolls are shaped like bunnies making them perfect for Easter dinner.
Ingredients
- 2-1/2 to 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 package (0.25-oz) active dry yeast
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup (8-oz) sour cream
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 egg
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine 1-1/2 cups flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
- In a small saucepan, heat the sour cream, water, and 2 tablespoons butter to 120-130°F; add to dry ingredients.
- Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add egg and 1/2 cup flour; beat 2 minutes longer. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
- Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. (I used my stand mixer with the dough hook attachment.)
- Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 24 pieces. Shape each into a smooth oval. Try to make one side slightly thinner for the head. Taking a pair of kitchen shears, make two cuts on the top of the dough to form ears. Place bunnies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
- Bake at 375° for about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
