These classic yeast rolls are incredibly soft and slightly sweet, making them a versatile addition to any meal.

They are a comforting, homemade treat that brings warmth to the table.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt.
  2. Dissolve yeast in warm water and let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  3. Add the yeast mixture and egg whites to the flour mixture.
  4. Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic.
  5. Add only enough flour to keep the dough from sticking; do not overknead.
  6. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
  7. Punch dough down to release air bubbles.
  8. Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface and cut or shape into rolls.
  9. Place rolls in greased muffin tins.
  10. Let rolls rise again until doubled in size.
  11. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown.
