    I only have fleischmanns active yeast, 2 1/4 teas per packet. How much is needed to equal the 1tbsp saf instant yeast?

      You can use the same amount of yeast, you just need to dissolve it in the sugar and water and let it sit until bubbly before adding the rest of the ingredients. You will also need to let the dough rise till doubled before forming it into rolls. It takes much longer to use regular instead of instant yeast, but your rolls will still taste great!

    Wondering why it says 5 cups of flour… but then add only two plus more until soft dough. Wish I didn’t have to figure out how much flour before too much? Is it 2 cups or 5 as listed in recipe? Hmmmm?

    How many does this make? Do I only have to let them rise the one time before baking??

      Also, how big of a chunk of dough do you start with to for, the bunny body? Sorry to ask so many questions!

        Sorry I just saw your questions. I usually start with a circle about 1 1/2-2 inches, but you can make them any size large or small. Just make sure they are all the same size so they bake evenly. Larger ones will need more time to bake, smaller ones will be faster.

      I usually get about 2 1/2 dozen, but it totally depends on the size. When my kids help me, they tend to make them bigger, so we end up with fewer rolls. Just watch them as they are baking and take them out when they are golden brown. Hope this helps!

    Kara, I have been out of the habit of blog checking for a while, but when I saw your picture of Bunny Rolls, It hit a soft spot in my heart. My dad always made these. My variation is a bit different, adding some orange juice and orange zest in my dough, then we have a glaze for them making them a little sweet. I'm making them this Sunday for a belated party we are having. Oh I just love your site! And better start checking more frequently again! I so missed your giveaway!!!! Dang. Thats what having a baby does to you! MIA for a while! haha!!! Hope your Easter was wonderful!
