Description

These Easy Potato Rolls are the ultimate comfort food side dish, offering a tender crumb and rich flavor that pairs perfectly with soups, stews, or holiday meals. The addition of mashed potatoes to the dough creates an incredibly soft texture that stays fresh longer than standard bread. Made with simple pantry staples like yeast, flour, eggs, and a touch of sugar, these rolls rise beautifully for a light, airy bite. They are slightly savory but versatile enough for sweet or savory toppings. Perfect for family dinners or potlucks, these homemade rolls bring a warm, homemade touch to any table.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the sugar and shortening until smooth.
  2. Add the mashed potatoes, salt, and eggs to the creamed mixture and beat until combined.
  3. In a small separate bowl, dissolve the active dry yeast in 2/3 cup of warm water (110-115 degrees F) and let sit for 5 minutes to activate.
  4. Pour the yeast mixture into the creamed potato mixture and mix well.
  5. Beat in 2 cups of all-purpose flour and the remaining 2/3 cup of warm water.
  6. Gradually add the remaining flour, about 4 1/2 cups, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  7. Shape the dough into a ball; do not knead.
  8. Place the dough ball in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top.
  9. Cover the bowl and let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size, approximately 1 hour.
  10. Punch the dough down to release air bubbles.
  11. Divide the dough into three equal portions.
  12. Shape each portion into 15 small rolls (45 total) and arrange them in three greased 9-inch round baking pans.
  13. Cover the pans loosely and let the rolls rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
  14. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (191&# 194;°C).
  15. Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  16. Remove the rolls from the pans immediately and cool on wire racks.
