Recipe Description

These dinner rolls taste like your Grandma made them. They are so good and easy; why buy rolls when you can make these?

Preparation Instructions

Put the ingredients into your bread machine in the order given. Water first and then the butter and so on. Make sure you have a little dent in the top of your mound of ingredients for the yeast.

Set your machine on the dough setting, then press the button. Go do your nails or eat some chocolate. It will take about an hour.

When your dough is ready, lay it out onto a piece of floured parchment paper or smooth floured counter surface and make into a rough rectangular shape.

Cut the rolls out to a nice size. I like to use a pizza cutter, it makes it a lot easier. You should be able to get about 15 to 18 rolls from one batch. Pinch the rolls into a nice shape. and brush with melted butter.

Cover with a clean towel and let the rolls rise for 30 minutes, they should double in size.

Cook at 375 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes.

Ingredients

1 cup Warm Water
2 Tablespoons Butter
1 whole Egg
3-¼ cups Flour
¼ cups Sugar
1 teaspoon Salt
3 teaspoons Quick-acting Active Dry Yeast Or Bread Machine Yeast

These were FANTASTIC. So easy- I threw everything in the breadmaker, then cut and bake them. I did a trial run last night to make sure they’d be Thanksgiving worthy and they are awesome! I think my husband had 5 of them… I had 3! Thank you so much for sharing!

I pulled out my bread machine and made these tonight. They were excellent and will definitely become a regular at our table!

Great rolls – a couple of hints is to warm the egg to room temp by dropping it uncracked into a cup of warm water or leave on counter for a bit. Also, use bread flour anytime you use the breadmaker.

I’m a rookie with dough and bread These turned out excellent. My husband couldn’t believe I had made them : ) Will definately be making again. We had them at supper, then the next day I made PBJ sandwiches out of them for the kids and they loved them!

I love this recipe… very similar to my standby.

For baking, I grease my muffin tins and bake in those. Makes them all the perfect shape-great for those who suffer from OCD!

Sometimes, I use EVOO to oil the tins, and sprinkle a little garlic powder or herbs before rolling the prepped dough in it.

I have made these rolls 4 times since Thanksgiving. They are super easy and very delicious. Thanks for sharing!

These were soft, fluffy and so tasty! Next time I will make smaller rolls though. I used them as the dough for PW’s rosemary pan rolls – yummy!!!!

i made these tonight and its the first time ive ever used just the dough programme on my breadmaker. also first time ive made bread in my new neff oven – these were totally delicious and im now converted. it takes no time at all, no effort on my behalf and they are a “thousand” times better than the preservative loaded rolls at the supermarket. great recipe

I just made these tonight, and they were wonderful! So easy, and so nice and soft and good. I made them like Ree’s rosemary dinner rolls, and everyone loved them. Will definitely be using this recipe again. Thanks!

I have made these rolls several times now and they always turn out light and delicious. This is my go to recipe for dinner rolls.

I joined this site just tobe able to keep this recipe. This recipe is wonderful andvery easy to do.i My family now wants these every day. Light and fluffy, must now go try the whole wheat version. Thanks for a great recipe.

Great recipe. I was a little discouraged at first, because the dough came out of my bread machine really dough-y and wet. I greased a bowl, and let the dough rise again for about 30 minutes. It doubled in size, and I was able to pinch handfuls off. I rolled them (they were still a little sticky), and put them in a greased spring form pan. I let them rise again for 20 minutes, and put them in a 350* oven for 12 minutes. I took them out, brushed them with melted butter, and put them in for a few minutes more to get some color. They turned out really good. I made a cinnamon/brown sugar butter to go with them. The next time I make these, I will add a bit more sugar and another pinch of salt.

These a quite easy and the outcome is delicious. I made them by hand instead of using the bread machine but they turned out delicious. Very soft and pillowy. I can’t keep these rolls around, they go that fast!

scrapcat0220 on 7.27.2010

very easy to make! i baked mine with italian seasoning and parmesan.. wouldn’t recommend, but they came out okay. these rolls would taste best plain with some butter served toasty warm!

bttrflybabydoll on 8.9.2010

This is a very easy recipe to make. I’ve made it a couple of times now, and I usually get about 12 out of it. I guess I make them bigger than most. Thanks for the great recipe!

I made these rolls at the last minute to go with dinner last night. I was worried because I didn’t let them rise all the way the first time; my bread machine “rests” before it mixes, and I didn’t have 2 1/2 hours to wait for the dough to finish. BUT they came out great anyway. They weren’t dense like I feared and the flavor is wonderful! Will definitely use this one again!

Easy peasy, delicious! It was my first attempt at using a bread machine rather than by hand and these were perfect. Thank you!

jdba514 on 4.8.2011

Our family loves these with dinner and then the next day for sandwiches. I make them all the time and they are so easy to do… and VERY good!

Bread Machine Basic White Bread High Altitude

by bettysketty and filed in Bread Machine, Breads

I’ve had so much trouble finding a bread machine recipe that works consistently at my altitude of 4300 ft., very dry climate. It’s been hit and miss for the past 20 years. I finally made it my mission and using good ol’ R2D2, otherwise known as a WelBilt AB100, bought from Costco over 20 years ago I’ve done it. Again and again, just good, plain white bread, soft inside and crusty outside.
