Sour Cream Posy Rolls

I made these last weekend for a family dinner. The recipe comes from my trusty Fleischmann's Best Ever Breads recipe book.

Sour Cream Posy Rolls (adapted by moi)

2 1/2 cups flour
2 tbsp sugar
1 package/2 1/4 tsp instant yeast
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup sour cream
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted and cooled
1 egg

Basic bread directions are here. Once the dough is complete, divide it into 12 equal portions and roll each portion into a ball. Put on a greased or parchment-lined cookie sheet and allow to rise, covered, until doubled in size. When they are risen, heat the oven to 400F. Take a pair of kitchen shears or scissors make 6 or so 3/4" deep snips on the edges of the rolls. Beat 1 egg well and brush over the buns, then sprinkle with seeds. Bake about 15 minutes or until done.

I never heard of Posy Rolls. That sounds good.

Meg: thanks!

Jen: Well, I am a professional!

Helene: I'd never heard of them either, but I think the "posey" refers to the shape. At least that's what I'm assuming.
