Ingredients

How to make it

  • Scald milk and add oil and sugar, set aside to cool to 95 - 110 degrees
  • Add yeast and warm water
  • Add enough all-purpose flour to make batter the consistency of a thick cake batter.
  • Cover and let rise until doubled
  • Stir down
  • Add salt, baking soda and baking powder and enough flour to make a smooth elastic dough.
  • (You may stop at this point and refrigerate the dough for up to a week or you use the dough immediately. Refrigeration will increase yeast taste)
  • When ready to bake, pinch off golf ball size pieces and place side by side (touching) in a greased baking pan. Let rise until doubled and bake in 400 degree oven until lightly brown.
  • Noe: If using self-rising flour, omit salt and baking powder.

    great tasting rolls,, I have also used this recipe to make a bread loaf,pizza crust, bread sticks and have actually stuffed them with meat and cheese before rising and baking them, they also freeze well... I freeze them in balls before the 2nd rise.Thanks for a great easy recipe. I also use olive oil for my oil in it. I've topped them with everything from onion slices to cheese and herbs they have turned out everytime.

    Thank you for this recipe, they were AWESOME!! The teens hit them hard even before dinner. I recommend anyone to give them a try, this will be a standard for me from now on.

    These rolls do get good oven spring. How do you think they will do making New England style hot dog rolls?

    Thanks for the comment, Points. It does make a lot of rolls, but the idea is to make a batch and refrigerate and pinch off what you need for nice hot rolls every day. The dough will last a week in the fridge. So, only have to make the recipe once a week, unless you get piggie. Glad you enjoyed!

    Good roll. Fluffy and light. Suggest anyone to make half a recipe unless you are making for an army.

    My flour usage was 6 cups then 2 cups.

    Wow, these sound great! How long does it take to double in size? Like an hour? Could I make it on a weeknight?

    Just like my mom used to make when we were kids. Great Aunt Mabel taught her how to make these as a child and then Mom taught me. Haven't made them in ages. Time to teach my child the wonders of these rolls. They are delicious. I always refrigerate at least one day for a more yeasty roll flavor. YUM.
