Garlic And Onion Buttermilk Fan Rolls

• Onion and Garlic Infused Butter
• 2 sticks unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup chopped sweet onions
• 6-7 large cloves of garlic, peeled
• Buttermilk Fan Tans
• 1/2 cup warm water (105-115F)
• 4 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 3/4 cup warm buttermilk (105-115F)
• 1/3 cup butter or butter spread, melted
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 4 cups AP flour + more if needed
• 1 egg, beaten

1. Melt butter ina a small saute pan.
2. Add onions and garlic and simmer on low for 10 minutes. It will be best if it starts to brown on the edges. Remove pan from heat and strain.
3. Reserve butter.
4. Place water in bowl of mixer or into a large warmed bowl.
5. Sprinkle in yeast; stir until dissolved. Add warm buttermilk, 1/3 cup melted butter, sugar, salt and 1 1 /2 cups flour; blend well.
6. Stir in egg and enough remaining flour to make a stiff dough. Place in greased bowl; turn to grease top. COver with plastic wrap and refrigerate 2 to 24 hours.
7. Remove from refrigerator. Punch dough down.
8. Remove to lightly floured surface, divide into three equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 12"x7" rectangle.
9. Brush onion and garlic flavored butter on all three rectangles. Try not to be over zealous with the butter, an even layer will be more than enough. You will have left-over butter but that can be used for vegetables.
10. With sharp knife or pizza cutter (my preference), cut each rectangle into 6 crosswise (top to bottom) 2" equal pieces. Place 6 strips on top of one another and you end up with three stacks of dough strips (each rectangle will be one stack).
11. With sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut each stack into strips crosswise again, into 6 equal squares, making 18 fans.
12. Place, cut side up, into 18 greased 2 1/2" muffin cups. Cover, let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30-40 minutes.
13. Bake at 375F for 20 minutes or until done. Makes 18 rolls. Remove rolls from muffin tin; cool on wire racks.
