INGREDIENTS
Dough
2 cups warm water (110°F – 115°F)
2 tablespoons honey
1 (¼ ounce) package RED STAR® Platinum Superior Baking Yeast®
½ cup powdered peanut butter*
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus 2 teaspoons
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
2 teaspoons kosher salt
5 – 5 ¼ cups KING ARTHUR® Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
Boiling Solution
10 cups water
½ cup baking soda
Topping
1 large egg yolk plus 2 teaspoons water
¼ cup coarsely chopped roasted salted peanuts
1 – 1 ½ teaspoons KING ARTHUR® Pretzel Salt
Directions
- In bowl of stand mixer fitted with dough hook, combine water, honey and yeast; let proof 5 minutes.
- Mix in powdered peanut butter, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, butter and salt. Gradually add enough flour to form a soft dough that pulls away from sides of bowl.
- Knead dough with hook 3 – 4 minutes to form a smooth dough. Grease large bowl with 2 teaspoons vegetable oil. Place dough in bowl, turning to coat. Cover; let rise in warm place until doubled.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Deflate dough and turn out on floured work surface. Scale 3-ounce pieces of dough; shape into smooth rolls. Place rolls on a greased 12” x 18” pan or lined with nonstick baking mat.
- In 4-quart or larger Dutch oven, combine water and baking soda, bring to a boil. Boil 3 rolls at a time for 40 – 45 seconds, turning occasionally. Use slotted spoon to remove rolls to pan.
- Using a sharp knife, cut ¼” deep “X” in the top of rolls. Beat together egg yolk and water; brush on rolls. Sprinkle on peanuts and salt.
- Bake on middle rack of oven 20 – 25 minutes until dark golden brown and internal temperature is 205°F – 210°F. Remove rolls to a rack and cool. Serve with butter and jam.
