     On holiday mornings, I often get up before 
	everyone else and make several kinds of Swedish Tea Rings before the family 
	gets up.  It has become a tradition especially on Christmas morning.  
	Note - I usually use dried buttermilk and increase water accordingly.  |

    Preparation Notes | 
	 
  
	| 2 pkgs | 
	Active Dry 
	Yeast | 
	
    -   Put 1/2 of flour, yeast, salt, baking powder and 
	sugar in mixing bowl to use with dough hooks.  (If using dried 
	buttermilk, put the dry buttermilk in as well.)
 
    -   Put water (including amount to add if using dried 
	buttermilk), butter and buttermilk in a large measuring cup.
 
    -  Mix dry ingredients together with a fork.
 
    -  Put wet ingredients in the microwave until about 
	125 degrees - about 1 or 2 minutes unless using cold buttermilk.  Stir 
	and check temperature.  If too hot, set aside and wait to cool.  
	Once at 110 - 125 degrees, add eggs to liquids and beat. 
 
    -  Add liquids to dry ingredients and mix with dough 
	hooks.
 
	-   Once mixed together, begin adding remaining flour
 
    -  Process with dough hooks until dough is smooth and 
	shiny.
 
    -   Take large bowl and coat with spray vegetable oil
 
	-   Put dough in prepared bowl, turn once and cover 
	with a hot moist clean dish towel.  Allow to rise until at least double 
	30 - 60 min.
 
    -  Punch down and turn out onto floured board, Knead a 
	few times and divide dough into 2 - 4 equal parts depending on size desired.
 
    -  Roll out portion until about 1/4 - 3/8 inch thick.
 
	-   Spread with filling - see notes if using cinnamon, 
	sugar and raisins.
 
	-   Roll dough into a tube and place on cookie sheet 
	or pizza sheet sprayed with vegetable oil putting ends together to form a 
	ring.  Pinch in any loose ends.
 
	-  Cut dough with scissors from out side 3/4 the way 
	through and turn slightly.
 
	-   Repeat for each ring
 
	-   Let rise until double.  Preheat oven to 375 
	degrees for 25 minutes
 
	-   Brush with melted butter and bake another five 
	minutes
 
	-    Ice with simple sweet icing and/or garnish.
