These pull-aparts are sweet and buttery
enough to please even the most stubborn self-proclaimed vegetable hater
-- even though they're made with (shhh) squash.
- Ingredients
-
- 3 3/4 cups flour, plus more for sprinkling
- 1 package or 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup honey
- Instructions
-
-
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, yeast, and salt, and set it aside.
-
Pour the milk into a microwave-safe bowl or
4-cup glass measuring cup and microwave on high for 30 seconds. Whisk in
the honey, squash, egg, and water. (The liquid mixture should be less
than 110º; anything hotter might kill the yeast.)
-
With a fork, blend the squash mixture into the
flour mixture until you have a soft dough. Cover with plastic wrap and
refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
-
Two hours before baking, turn the dough out onto
a floured surface and knead 6 sage leaves into the dough. Melt the
butter and set it aside in a small bowl. Divide the dough in half, then
divide each half into 6 portions. Divide each portion into 3 pieces.
With floured hands, roll each piece into a ball and dip it into the
melted butter. Place 3 balls in a muffin cup. Continue until 12 muffin
cups are filled.
-
Drizzle or brush each roll with 1/2 teaspoon of
the leftover melted butter and then sprinkle them with the rest of the
sage. Let the rolls rise in a warm spot (at least 70º) until they're
double in size, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours. The 3 balls of dough will rise
together to form a cloverleaf shape.
Heat the oven to 350º. Bake the rolls until golden, about 15 to 17 minutes. Makes 1 dozen.

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, yeast, and salt, and set it aside.
