Yum-Yum! These were easy. I doubled the batch and they were a hit with the family. I like the subtle sweetness they have.

Description
The easiest yeast rolls you’ve ever made and the best yeast rolls you’ve ever tasted! Nothing fussy or scary about making these yeast rolls. You are just 3 hours away from the buttery-est, yeasty-est rolls you never thought you could make at home. And now you can!
Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon Yeast
- 1 whole Egg
- ¼ cups Light Olive Oil
- ¼ cups Salted Butter, Melted, Plus Extra To Brush On Top Of Rolls
- 1 cup Warm Water
- ¼ cups Sugar
- ¾ teaspoons Salt
- 2-½ cups All-purpose Flour
Preparation
Note: Roll batter may be made with a stand or hand mixer, or stirred by hand.
Place all ingredients, except flour, in a large mixing bowl and blend. Add flour and mix to form a thick, sticky batter. Cover the bowl with a towel and let stand at room temperature for one hour.
Grease a baking pan with shortening and/or butter.(I use both, to keep the butter from burning).
Pinch off small pieces of the dough and tuck under all around to smooth the tops. Place dough in the greased baking pan, leaving space between for rolls to expand. Brush tops of rolls with extra melted butter.
Cover pan with a towel and let stand another hour. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Bake for about 10–15 minutes, until golden brown on top.
Serve warm, or bake ahead of time and reheat to serve. Makes about 18 rolls, depending on size.

After one hour of resting, the dough was so wet I couldn’t break off pieces. I had to use a scoop and scoop the wet dough into muffin tins. I have no idea what the final result with be – but I definitely won’t be following this recipe again. I double checked the ingredient measurements and followed everything exactly.

I always use SAF Red yeast, which is a dry instant yeast. It does not require proofing before using and can be added in with all the other dry ingredients. Easy to use and great results!

do you use fast action yeast or fresh?
