Can Quick-Rise yeast be substituted in your recipe?

Red Star Yeast | Reply

Hi Joan,

Yes you can substitute 1:1 but keep an eye on your rise times. The dough will rise much faster with the Quick Rise yeast.

Happy Baking!

Can the dough be frozen at any point before baking?

Red Star Yeast | Reply

Hi Becky – We don’t recommend freezing the rolls before baking because it will damage the yeast and dough structure which will affect the quality of the final baked product. To break up some of the prep, you could make the dough the day before and refrigerate overnight. This will make for the best possible end product to enjoy with your loved ones.
We do have tips for par-baking and also freezing the dough if you do choose that route: https://redstaryeast.com/blog/holiday-baking-guide/.

I hope you will find this information helpful.
Happy baking!

When making buns in a muffin tin, what weight should the bun dough be for each hole

Red Star Yeast | Reply

Hi Brenda,
We suggest that you weigh the batter/dough and divide by 18 to get the weight for each roll.
Happy baking!

Would Red Star consider having a regular paper book with these recipes? I was in an
accident years ago and can’t see e-books well. Absolutely love your recipes.
Thank you.

You are saying large muffin cups.. does this mean the standard size like a cup cake size? Or the Texas biggies?

Hi Linda, Use the cup cake size muffin tins for these rolls. Happy baking! ~Carol@RSY
