2 T. oil

Combine 2 cups flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Mix well. Mix hot water and oil. Blend at low speed until moistened. Beat at medium speed for 3 minutes. Gradually stir in enough remaining flour to make a firm dough.

Knead 10 minutes. Let rest 20 minutes, covered. Shape into 12 even balls. Cover and let raise 30 minutes.

Roll out to a 6" circle three at a time. Bake on a cooling rack in a 500 degree oven for 3 minutes.
