Quick and Easy Rolls

Preheat oven to 375 degrees about 10-15 minutes before putting them in.
Ingredients:
½ Tbsp active dry yeast
1 Tbsp Sugar or honey
½ and 1/8 cups of warm water
Stir together and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes.
Then add:
1 Tbsp oil (I use canola or olive)
¼-1/2 tsp salt
1 ½ cups flour (if you want to make it a little for healthy then use 1 cup unbleached white flour and ½ cup wheat flour)
Stir together. Turn out onto floured surface and knead for 5 minutes adding more flour as necessary to keep from sticking. Then roll out to about ¼-1/2 inch thickness and cut (either circular, triangular, rectangular, how ever you want. Cups are a nice tool for circular or using a pizza cutter works great for anything else) Spray a pan with cooking spray and place rolls on pan. Let rise 15 minutes or so, of course the longer you let sit they bigger they’ll be. (I have also done them without having them rise and they still taste okay they just aren’t that big) Place in oven for 10-15 minute or until lightly golden on top.
