Quaint Seas Dinner Rolls
Description
These Quaint Seas Dinner Rolls are the ultimate comfort food, offering a perfect balance of softness and subtle sweetness. The unique combination of mayonnaise and warm water creates an incredibly tender crumb that stays fresh longer than traditional yeast rolls. With a simple mix of yeast, sugar, salt, and all-purpose flour, these rolls rise beautifully to create a light, airy texture. They are ideal for holiday dinners, casual weeknight meals, or as a side to hearty stews and casseroles. Easy to make from scratch, they bring a homemade warmth to any table without requiring advanced baking skills.Ingredients
Directions
-
In a small bowl, combine 1/3 cup warm water, dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Stir gently and let stand for about 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy and bubbly.
-
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar, 2/3 cup warm water, mayonnaise, salt, and 2 cups of all-purpose flour.
-
Beat the mixture with a spoon or mixer until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
-
Pour in the yeast mixture and stir to combine. Gradually beat in the remaining 2 cups of flour until a thick, smooth batter forms.
-
Cover the bowl with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let the batter rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in volume.
-
Preheat your oven to 400&# 194;°F (200ðC). Grease 12 muffin cups well with oil or butter.
-
Stir down the risen batter to remove air bubbles. Divide the batter evenly among the 12 prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
-
Cover the muffin tin loosely and let the rolls rise again for 45 minutes, or until they are puffy and nearly touching.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and immediately brush the tops with melted butter or cooking spray for a soft crust. Serve warm.
