Instructions

1. Mix the flour, water (start with 3 cups and add gradually, using 2 cups for AP flour; hold back the last 1/2 cup until you see the dough consistency), yeast, fat, sugar and salt until the dough is slightly sticky but not overly sticky. Add 1/4 cup of water at a time if too dry, mixing 2 minutes after each addition in high humidity.
2. Knead the dough until smooth, then divide into 12 to 14 pieces and shape into bolillos.
3. Bake at 193°C (380°F) for 20 to 22 minutes, or at 196°C (385°F) at high altitude.
