Ingredients

12 servings

•

2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour*
•

1 (.25 ounce) envelope Fleischmann's® RapidRise Yeast
•

2 tablespoons sugar
•

1 teaspoon salt
•

1 teaspoon Spice Islands® Italian Herb Seasoning

•

1 ¼ cups very warm water (120 to 130 degrees F)
•

1 tablespoon Mazola® Corn Oil
•

1 ¼ cups cooked, crumbled sausage
•

1 cup 1/4-inch cubed mozzarella cheese
•

Pizza sauce

Instructions

Combine 1-1/2 cups flour, undissolved yeast, sugar, salt and Italian herb seasoning in large mixer bowl. Add water and oil; beat 2 minutes on medium speed. Gradually add remaining 1-1/4 cups flour to make a stiff yet sticky dough. Stir in sausage and cheese. Cover bowl and let rest 10 minutes.
Portion dough into 12 (2-1/2 inch) generously greased muffin cups OR 36 mini muffin cups using a scoop or two spoons (do not use paper liners). Cover and let rise 35 to 45 minutes. Dough will rise, but not double in size.
Bake in preheated 375 degrees F oven for 20 to 25 minutes (17 to 20 minutes for minis) until well browned. Let cool on wire rack for 2 minutes. Run a knife around each roll to remove from pan. Serve warm with pizza sauce for dipping, if desired. Refrigerate any leftovers.
