Fleischmann's Yeast
List of Ingredients
5 to 5½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup sugar
2 envelopes FLEISCHMANN'S RapidRise Yeast
1 tsp. salt
½ cup water
½ cup milk
¼ cup butter or margarine
3 large eggs
Apple Filling (recipe follows)

Recipe
In a large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, and salt. Heat water, milk, and butter until very warm (120°F to 130°F). Gradually add to dry ingredients. Beat for 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add eggs and 1 cup flour; beat for 2 minutes at high speed, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cover; let rest for 10 minutes.
Divide dough into 2 equal portions. Roll each portion into a 12- x 8-inch rectangle. Spread Apple Filling evenly. Beginning at long end of each, roll up tightly as for a jelly roll. Pinch seams to seal. Cut each roll into 12 equal pieces. Place, cut sides up, in greased 9-inch round pans. Cover; let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 45 minutes. Sprinkle with Cinnamon-Sugar Topping.
Bake at 375°F for 25 to 30 minutes or until done. Remove from pans; serve warm.
Apple Filling: Combine 2 large cooking apples (chopped), 2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour, ¾ cup sugar, and ¼ cup butter or margarine in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook for 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook for 10 minutes, stirring constantly until thick. Stir in 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon and ½ teaspoon nutmeg. Cool completely.
Cinnamon-Sugar Topping: Combine ¾ cup sugar, 1 tsp. ground cinnamon, and ½ tsp. nutmeg. Stir until well-blended.
YIELD: 24 Rolls
