I made these rolls on Easter & they were a smash! They are so easy & simple to make. I plan on making these for no reason whatsoever. They are delicious!

I love these rolls their flavor and the fact that you can do them ahead of time. I do all the mixing, stick them in the fridge over night, then form and bake the rolls the next day.

I usually make 24 rolls, and freeze the rest of the dough to make cinnamon rolls later.

Easy, great tasting recipe!

I love these rolls. The recipe makes a very large batch but they freeze wonderfully. I always cut back the salt to about 1 1/2 tablespoons. Two tablespoons is too salty for my taste. I had to sub buttermilk for regular milk and it turned out great.

Love these. I have made them several times, and will continue to!

I tried to make these yesterday. It was a fail.

One important step that is not really noted here (but is on PW’s blog for this recipe), is that after you scald the milk you MUST let it cool for a while before adding the flour and yeast. Otherwise you will kill the yeast and it won’t rise. After my dough wasn’t looking right, I checked PW’s blog entry about this recipe and she noted it there that this is an important step. I wish I had looked there before I started.

Maybe this is a basic thing in baking bread that I just didn’t know. This is, after all, only my second attempt at baking my own bread of any kind.

While I am sad that I made this mistake, I still am hopeful and pretty certain that this recipe is going to be a winner. I plan on trying again very soon.

We love homemade bread/rolls in my family, and these are great. Very easy and tasty.

Thank you Ree! These rolls are so wonderful. I feel so proud when I make them. Nothing like home-made.

This is my second attempt to make bread. I was disappointed in the outcome but my company (brought them to a function) was very pleased. I had coworkers tell me they took a couple home with them for dinner! Mine were very heavy and dense. The sides of mine got dark fast and that may be because I have a dark pan. I also used skim milk. Not sure if making it with whole milk would make much difference! Make sure to allow yourself some time to make these! They also make such a large amount I would freeze half the dough and use at a later date (if that is possible)!…

Honestly a fabulous recipe! I have never made rolls or bread before and these came out beautifully. They are time consuming, but completely worth it. I made them for a dinner party of 7 and none of the 30 were left! Everyone grabbed the leftovers to take them home. They were so good that most of our guests ate a little bit of the main dish and filled up on the rolls, of course spread apart with butter. So I would definately suggest these to whomever is willing to do a little work because it is worth it!

These are hands-down my favorite rolls ever. Period. Done. And I know good bread. I sprinkle a little kosher salt on the tops before baking and … wowza. I just … they’re so good. Thank you!
