Buttery Dinner Rolls
The perfect complement to any dinner. After your first bite, you will never
go back to store-bought rolls again.
Makes 12 rolls
½ cup whole milk
3 tablespoons water
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1¾ teaspoons active dry yeast
1 large egg, lightly beaten
3 cups bread flour, plus more as needed
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 6 pieces
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
1. Put the milk and water in a small saucepan set over medium heat. *Bring to
105°–110°f. Remove from heat and add the sugar and yeast. Stir to dissolve
and let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add beaten egg; stir to combine.
Transfer to a large measuring cup to make it easier to add to the food processor.
2. Insert the dough blade into the food processor. Add the flour, butter and salt
and process on the dough speed until combined, about 15 to 20 seconds. With
the machine running on the dough speed, slowly pour the yeast mixture through
the feed tube, adding only as fast as the flour absorbs it (you may not need
all of the liquid mixture). After the dough forms a ball, process for 45 seconds
to knead. Dough should be smooth and elastic. If dough is too wet, sprinkle
a tablespoon of additional bread flour over the dough and pulse to combine,
adding more flour, 1 teaspoon at a time, until a tender dough is achieved.
3. Put the dough in a lightly floured plastic food storage bag with the air squeezed
out, or in a bowl covered with plastic wrap. Let rise in a draft-free warm place
until it has doubled in size, about 45 to 60 minutes.
4. Lightly butter an 8 or 9-inch round baking pan. Divide the dough into 12 equal
pieces, about 2 ounces each. Roll into smooth rounds and arrange in the
prepared pan. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until about doubled in size,
about 30 to 40 minutes.
5. Preheat the Compact Toaster Oven Broiler set to Bake at 350°f with rack in
position A for 5 minutes. **Bake the rolls until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
Remove from pan and let cool on a rack for about 10 minutes before serving.
* You can also warm the milk and butter in the microwave. Simply put in a
microwave-safe container, such as a glass measuring cup, warm slightly
(about 10 to 15 seconds on High, depending on your microwave. Be sure to
check temperature). Stir in sugar and yeast to dissolve and let sit until foamy.
Continue with directions above.
** for a polished finish, melt 1 tablespoon of butter with 1 tablespoon of milk and
brush the tops of the rolls just before baking.

Twice Baked Potatoes
Here we give you the groundwork for the classic twice baked potato,
but don't stop here. They can be topped with just about anything from
shredded Cheddar and chopped broccoli to salsa and sliced avocado.
Makes 2 servings
2 russet potatoes (10 to 12 ounces each)
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil, divided
1 ⁄
3
cup low-fat milk
1 tablespoons unsalted butter
¼ cup sour cream
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1. Preheat the Compact Toaster Oven Broiler set to Bake at 400°f with the rack in
position A for 5 minutes.
2. Rub each potato with ½ teaspoon of olive oil, and then evenly prick about 6 to 8
times with a fork. Place potatoes directly on the rack and bake for about 40 to
45 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly. Reduce oven temperature to 350°f.
