In a 2 cup or larger measuring cup, put 3 yeast packages in 1 cup of luke
warm water. In a sauce pan, boil 1 cup water then turn off and add 1 cup
Crisco (rounded but not heaping), One half cup sugar, 1 cup Kellog's All Bran or
Bran Buds, 1 One half tsp salt. Stir until Crisco melts, then cool to luke
warm.

In a mixing bowl, beat 2 eggs until foamy. Then add yeast mixture and Bran
mixture. Slowly (1 cup at a time) add flour until it forms a sticky but not
too dry ball. Lightly rub with Crisco so that it doesn't crust over. Cover
with a wet towel and let rise until it has risen well above the rim of the
bowl. Then, remove towel and "punch down" cover again and let rise once
more.

After it has risen the second time put dough on floured counter top and
knead until all the air is out. On the side, melt One half cup of Crisco. Roll
out One half inch thick and use a small glass (2 One half inch diamater) to punch out
round slices of dough. Dip in melted Crisco, fold in half, and put on
cookie sheet. You could also make walnut sized balls of dough and put 3
balls, dipped in melted Crisco in each hole of a muffin pan. Let rise
again. Bake at 450 degrees for about 20 minutes, or until lightly browned.
Makes 3 One half dozen small rolls.
