Description

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

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

Preparation

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.

I made these today and they came out fabulous. Picture perfect and oh so easy! I followed the simple directions exactly, including the pizza cutter which really speeds up the process! These will be on the menu for our Father’s Day celebration. Thanks so much for this keeper recipe.

Made these tonight and they were absolutely delicious. Just a couple FYI’s for other girls like me who need specific, detailed instructions! I melted the butter ..it’s probably a given to most people! And, my bread machine said it’d take 1.5 hours once it was set and after an hour it seemed to be rising, which I figured shouldn’t happen since the rolls need to rise after you make them. I cancelled the cycle after 65 minutes and they turned out great!

I also used these to make Ree’s skillet dinner rolls, but instead of rosemary, I sprinkled on some grated parm and brushed with olive oil and garlic. Yum!

Easy and delicious! I don’t have a bread machine, so I used my dough hook, which worked just as well. Will be making these again when my hubby gets back! ;)

The absolute best dinner rolls and SO very EASY. I had been looking for a light dinner roll recipe when I came across this one. I saw the egg and the amount of sugar and thought that this may not be the recipe I was looking for. But I used it based on the reviews. Boy were the reviews right on. These were so good and wonderful. They rose up so fluffy and big. This is a recipe keeper. Thank you!
