Description

These Fast Dinner Rolls are the ultimate comfort food side dish, perfect for Thanksgiving, holiday feasts, or a cozy Tuesday night dinner. With a tender crumb and a slightly golden crust, they offer a superior alternative to store-bought buns. The simple yeast dough comes together quickly, requiring no long fermentation times. Made with basic pantry staples like flour, sugar, and warm water, these rolls boast a light, airy texture that melts in your mouth. They are ideal for soaking up gravy, dipping in melted butter, or serving alongside roasted meats. Easy to make and universally loved, these fresh-baked rolls bring a warm, homemade touch to any table.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large mixing bowl and let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add sugar, oil, salt, and egg to the yeast mixture and stir to combine.
  3. Stir in 1 cup of flour until the batter is smooth.
  4. Cover the bowl with a clean cloth and let it rise in a warm place for 15 minutes.
  5. Stir down the risen batter and add 1 1/2 cups of flour.
  6. Stir until mixed, then turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
  7. Knead the dough for 3 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  8. If the dough is sticky, add up to 1/4 cup more flour while kneading.
  9. Divide the dough into 16 equal pieces and shape each piece into a smooth ball.
  10. Place the rolls in a greased 9x9 inch baking pan.
  11. Brush tops with melted butter or oil, cover with a cloth, and let rise for 25 minutes.
