Categories     Breads

Time 1h

Yield 12 rolls, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 cups warm water
1 tablespoon instant yeast
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt
4 cups flour (I use a combo of wheat and white)

Steps:

  • Add water, yeast and sugar in mixing bowl, allow to bubble (about 4 min).
  • Add salt and flour slowly, checking for consistency. You may need to use as much as 1/2 a cup extra flour- dough should be firm but slightly sticky.
  • Place in greased bowl and allow to double (15-30 minutes).
  • Flour your hands and separate into 12 rolls on greased pan. Allow to rise 15 minutes more.
  • Bake at 350°F for 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results.
  • Dissolve the sugar in warm water before adding it to the yeast. This will help the yeast to activate and proof properly.
  • Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. This will help to develop the gluten and give the rolls a chewy texture.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will allow the yeast to ferment and produce carbon dioxide, which will give the rolls their light and airy texture.
  • Bake the rolls in a preheated oven until they are golden brown. This will give them a crispy crust and a soft, fluffy interior.

Conclusion:

Dinner rolls are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. They are perfect for holidays, potlucks, or any other special occasion. With a little bit of planning and effort, you can easily make perfect dinner rolls at home.
