The written printable recipe with the full details of ingredients and baking time is here: bit.ly/2PwJJp5 I am aware that this is a very lengthy video. I am a baking instructor and my goal for this video was to help you gain a full understanding of how yeast works and how to make rolls. If you do not want a thorough explanation, I suggest watching this video that has no talking at all and is a very quick demo: ua-cam.com/video/Xg5JoDjNMHw/v-deo.html
I really liked this video. I’m 71 years old and we made these rolls in Home Economics class. I loved the rolls so much, but my mother only made biscuits. As I grew older, I always remembered the rolls, but never had time to do them myself. I am retired now and have plenty of time to try out new recipes. I’m having company over for breakfast this Saturday and they will get the chance to taste these beautiful rolls. Thank you again. I’m a new subscriber for you.
My 8 year old grandson loves to help me cook and bake. We will definitely be making these and your chemistry/ science explanations will be a bonus. Nicely done Betty. So glad I found you!
I made these today. First time ever making yeast rolls. I cut the dough in half after the first rise and made 8 nice sized dinner rolls and 10 or 11 medium size cinnamon rolls. They were so easy and Delicious! Thank you for a great tutorial and recipe!
I have watched so .any of yeast rolls making. You are the best I have seen you don't spend a lot of time just gabbing about nothing,, you are right to the point and speaking clearly for me to understand. Thank you so much!!
I am a beginner and have been baking dinner scones using this video ever since. My scones come out perfect every time and my family enjoy them. Thank you soo much.
I just made them and me, my wife and my kids all loved them! what also happened to me is that while adding the flour I ran out of all purpose flour so I used 3 cups of all purpose flour and 1 cup of bread flour but everything turned up great!
Well I bought some bread flour and all purpose flour and I used 2 cups of each the mistake I made is a used both kinds of yeast which I won’t do it the next time but they turned out well they just they just didn’t rise as much as I would’ve liked them too
My rolls always are too well done on the bottom. I use parchment paper but it still is almost burnt. Is my oven too hot on 375 degrees? Should I turn it down to 370 degrees and see if that helps? Should I double up the pan using two cooking sheets? Are there insulation layers I can use? Thanks for this video I like the ingredients and the ease of one bowl for all the ingredients. I can’t wait to try this recipe!
Thank you , thank you, thank you so much. I followed every step of this recipe and my rolls FINALLY came out perfect. I was definitely intimidated by yeast bread. Your steps made me a lot more confident.
Terrific video. The most careful and lucid instructions I've yet seen. Your program made me feel like I could actually DO this. I am retired and trying to learn how to bake, and it is much harder than I had ever imagined. That's why your video is so encouraging. Do keep the quality vids coming. Your style is teaching at its best!
I hope you get credit for all of the many times I have watched your tutorial. Thank you SO much for making what seemed daunting as approachable. Between your calm explanations of why and how to use the ingredients, the pace and the music I was able to watch this SO many times and also often enough to take notes. Hopefully, in two hours (I've a cold kitchen) we will see some measure of success.
Hi everyone! I hope this detailed tutorial was helpful! One thing I should mention is that parchment paper is definitely helpful when you make these on a sheet pan! It slipped my mind when making this video, but they did stick a tiny bit without the parchment. Nothing major, but definitely recommend using parchment if you have it! Enjoy the rolls and let me know if you make them!
We tried them and had delicious rolls. We just wondering if can add honey to it? If so how much and at what stage? I’d appreciate if you could respond xx
Best video ever. I'm starting out from the very beginning of any kind of baking. When I try any recipe it says, "add milk," or "add yeast" or "add butter". There are so many options. Does that mean whole or skim milk.? Is it quick rising yeast? Is it salted or unsalted butter? Is it all purpose flour or one of the other options? I'm sure once you start getting use to it, you can tweak it here and there. But right now I'm so unsure of these little details I want to quit. Thank you for very specific details.
Thanks Baker Bettie. I tried this for the first time and it was bang on, my family really enjoyed it. Your recipes are so good and easy to follow especially for beginners like me. God bless you
Bettie, I thoroughly enjoyed your tutorial! You made it so easy to understand. You spelled out every step of the recipe. I feel much more confident in baking the yeast rolls. Thank you so much! You have been fantastic 🏋️I will let you know how my rolls turn out!😍
I made these and 2 other recipes of yours, (biscuits and scones) they all turned out GREAT, I've struggled for 50 years to bake anything worth eating and. all 3 recipes came out better then anything in a restaurant. Thank you
I'm a newer 16 year old Baker and I'm impressed on your knowledge of yeast. I am also planning on making these rolls. Very professional video. I am going to subscribe
This was a great tutorial! Just in time for Thanksgiving 👍 Only difference that I made was the egg wash, I used milk instead of water. & I made a honey butter with 4 Tbsp of Unsalted butter with 1 Tbsp oh honey & a pinch of kosher salt They came out perfect, thank you! Peace & love Peace & love
One of the the best videos on bread making I have seen. I watched a dozen videos this morning on yeast rolls and bread rolls in general, Baker Bettie is the best. Clear, concise instructions. Absolutely excellent.
I’m in culinary school, however, bread making and pastry has always been something I am intimidated of (and don’t enjoy nearly as much as cooking!! )You’ve made this recipe approachable. So much so, that I just made these today! They’re rolled into balls and are now rising for a second time. Ive always wanted to get into bread asking, and your channel looks like it’s going to be a godsend! 👩🏻🍳 🥖 Cant wait to pop these in the oven, and eat them with pepper butter! Mmmm.
Thank you! This bread making thing is beginning to finally make a lot of sense. I bought a lot of SAF instant yeast and I tried to proof it overnight in the fridge (not knowing the difference between yeasts) - well, now I get why my ciabatta didn't turn out! Great video. (Subbed.)
Thanks so much Bettie!!! Just fixed the yeast rolls for our Thanksgiving dinner today - - it was the hit of the meal and everyone was (and still is.....) raving about them. So delicious!!!
OMG, I made these yesterday for my tiny quarantine Thanksgiving (just me and my husband), and they turned out perfect!! Thank you Baker Bettie for the amazing step-by-step tutorial. You're a damn genius and a wonderful teacher! I didn't have real milk, but saw an answer below saying you can use any type of "milk"... So...I used So Delicious Unsweetened Coconut Milk (the type in the shelf-stable carton). I can't imagine them tasting any better with real milk, so I'm glad I tried the alternative. I'm making another batch today for my sister who was jealous when I posted a photo of my gorgeous buns on Instagram!! 😊
Very well done! I like to cook and have been cooking for years. I was surprised that you mentioned why you tuck and roll your rolls. I never thought of why? You taught me something, Thanks!
You did an EXCELLENT job in your informative delivery for making these rolls. I’m definitely going to be watching the rest of your videos! Thank you so much!
I've never made Dinner Rolls before, but this is an excellant Instructional video!!! I will try this soon. I never realized how much skill is required. Thank you Baker Bettie!
These rolls look beautiful! I'm going to try these for Thanksgiving dinner next week. Your shaping technique is very impressive; they look like you went to the bakery and bought them.......very professional! I love yeast rolls but never had the courage to make them at home. Thank you so much!
a wonderful tutorial video. I know this question is going to sound silly. Rather than make rolls, can I put the dough in a loaf pan and bake it as bread? Thanks.
Hi Joshua! You can bake it into a loaf. It will be a very tender bread, closer to a brioche bread rather than a sandwich bread. If you want a nice fluffy sandwich bread I would use this recipe: ua-cam.com/video/n5eTsE5lAp4/v-deo.html
You are very easy on the palate. Loved watching and listening to your tutorial. Some talk to much or too little, but your instruction was easy and pleasurable to follow. Thanks for this video. Look forward to more.
Thank you Bettie, made the rolls following your video, they were awesome, I have never made any kind of bread before, it was a success, my family loved them, thanks again!
You are a good teacher and explained your recipe very well. However I am a senior (76 years old) so I have to watch it again before I can bake. Thank you for sharing. Hope I am able to do it right.
I've tried making bread and rolls a couple times and my loaves and rolls always come out very dense. I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong. The last yeast roll recipe I tried didn't mention a second rise after shaping my rolls maybe that is the problem. Any other suggestions?
I'm still searching for my late mother's yeast roll recipe. She got it from a 1974 Better Homes and Gardens cookbook. Used melted shortening. Best on the planet.
I love this video. Very informative on the basics of yeast dough. It has been a very long time since I have used yeast, so this video helped this 66-year-old granny get back to using yeast.
I'd been working with yeast dough for a while but only after this video I realized why my results were very inconsistent: I didn't know whatsoever how to properly knead my dough, nor did I know about having to create that surface tension on individual rolls. Thank you!
I saw about 40 videos on UA-cam to understand how to make dinner rolls. But your video gave me the confidence to bake them. I followed you to the T and the buns turned out excellent. Thank you so much for the detailed explanation ❤️❤️
Well...I GIVE UP!!!! Yes I'm crying...I have tried making these TWICE...try try again...Well, it didn't work. The first dough was rather dense, the 2nd time around, it was very "loose" I can say it in Spanish but...it was loose!! What the heck did I not do...also the dough was kinda "yellow"...I'm used to making bread but my dough is always "white" , not sure...Can you give me some pointers? PLEASE..have always wanted to make these, and you are the bomb!!! Best instructor I have EVER had...thanks, linda
Thanks bunches for making it "do able". I always thought that it would be too hard and complicated to make yeast rolls, but you have done a great job at showing how to make them. They look yummy and I am really going to make time to make them. Thanks Bettie😄.
Thanks for the detailed instructions. I bought a big bag of Bread flour thought its better for making bread. Is it ok to use that flour instead of the all purpose flour?
Hi there! Bread flour is great for breads but is typically reserved for lean breads which have a much sturdier and chewier texture. Since this is an enriched bread, I don't typically use bread flour for it. That said, you can use it for this recipe if you like.
@@BakerBettie they turned out really good! I think I may have not needed enough or kneeded too much because they were less airy then expected. But they were still delish!
I really enjoy watching your videos. I just found you today searching for baking flour. The first viedo was you showing the variations of flours and how to use them (maybe #7). Next, I chose to SUBSCRIBE and watched yeast rolls. Now, I'm not sitting and watching like in a class room. I am cooking dinner at 11:30 AM PST but cooking videos sooth me. As I cook and clean my kitchen, I look over to watch some of your tecniques. I will definitely sit still and watch more intensely. For now, you make my cooking so soothing. ...and I'm cooking spaghetti! I really appreciate your work. I wish when people "dislike", they would atleast tell you why they disliked the video. Their thoughts can help us grow. Instead, these UA-cam Police always hate. You are doing a good job and if anyone hates on you, you let them know I have a fan and she'll whoop your taile good!
I watched this video 3 years ago and have made these several times....delish......to say the least...I have one question about making them the day before and refrigerating them....would you pull them out say an hour prior to baking them to let them come up to room temp?? Or can they go right from the refrigerator to the oven...I'm thinking they'd have to come up to temp but I want to be sure....THANK YOU!!!!
The very first video I've ever watched an understood why my breads always failed.... Thanks Bettie. I now know my water was too hot and it prevented my bread. I'll try this out right now and let you know how it turns out.
Thank you for the recipe, I have one question why is my roll not consistent sometime it comes out nice, and sometimes it has elephant skin what wrong? can I mix APF with Bread flour to make it more chewie?
I tried the recipe that you linked in the description and then the recipe in your video, I liked the way the rolls from the video recipe turned out much better! I did the overnight proofing and baked them in the morning. Only problem I had was how long to cook them for, I kept thinking they were done but they weren’t, I determined cook time to be 25-30min at 375 in a convention oven, I did cover them with foil at the end to keep the tops from over browning.
Hi there. I’m glad you enjoyed the rolls! The written recipe is linked in the description is actually the same as the recipe in the video. That is just the written printable version!
Baker Bettie hmm must be my phone directing me to another recipe as the one in link calls for 1 egg, 4tbsp butter, 3 cups flour and video calls for 2 eggs, 6 tbsp butter and 4 cups flour with all other ingredients being the same. I’ll have to retry on computer. Thank you for reply!
Hi Baker Bettie, I made these last weekend and the flavor is great but they are too crumbly and a little dense. I wonder what I can do better next time? I think I might have overproofed them? I used the active yeast (not rapid) and I let them proof about 3 hours (after I rolled them out) because if it was 90 min then I would have had to put them in the fridge and take them out an hour before cooking. Thanks!
This was an amazing video. I've never made yeast rolls before, but Bettie made it look so easy. She is a phenomenal teacher. She really helped me understand what I was doing and WHY I was doing it ( example: folding the dough under and making a seam). I really enjoyed this video and I will be looking for more of her videos. Thanks again, Bettie
My 9 year old granddaughter introduced you to me on her tablet. You inspire future bakers! She makes the best chocolate chip cookies(your recipe) Thank you baker Bettie! xo
Hi Margie! That makes me so incredibly happy! I try to explain things in a way that anyone could make it no matter how young or old or new or experienced baker. I'm so glad your granddaughter has already found joy in baking and glad she is bringing you along!
I love your video!! You explain the process clearly making our attempt at these rolls successful. I will be looking for more of your wonderful videos! Thank you Bettie!
This is such a great video! I’m loving the explanation to the ingredients. This helps me to learn and be able to tweak and make it my own. Thank you for the videi
Thanks a lot for your answer but I’m a disability person in an electric wheelchair with more than 90% problem on my body I’m French married for 42years with a Cretan guy & we used to live in Crete & now we live time in France in Normandy time in Crete My step parents (I was adopted) used to live in Naperville Illinois Here in France my only grand son live with us because no parents & he’s going to be a French baker in Crete after a couple of years He’s 17 & half & ke’s going in a special university learning bakery breads & bakery sweet We watch together your video & he was so surprised that he told it to his teacher for the salt & yeast The answer was : This lady was lucky because here in France she would disqualified if she had done her mixes like this one ! Anyway I ‘m doing all my Greek & French recipes for more than 40 years now that why we believe that my grand son likes sooooo much to be a professional French & Greek baker in a couple of years He’s also thinking to go to the USA to work & learn more things to do . Happy to see your videos & have fun & health for the future bye (try not to keep “bad ideas” about my English but I learned English alone by myself sooo … )
Betty, I'm all in with your stuff. One huge issue with me is exactness. My package of yeast said 21g's. So I measured tsp and found the amount in pkg to be exact Why the difference in weight? Fleshman's yeast Thank you and God bless!!!
Just found your channel and can’t wait to make these rolls. Did I miss what you’re supposed to do with the sheet pan; Do I grease it, or lay parchment, or dust it or just lay the dough balls right on the bare sheet pan? Thnx!
Thank you I was making these for the first time. I didn’t have a whisk brush couldn’t find it so I just made the egg wash and then put on a glove and lightly whisked it with my fingers.👍🏽 I’m about to pit them in the oven … I’m excited 😅
a lotta time involved in the RISING process ( than some other recipes)but i can take a wild guess and say it’s gona be worth it- been years since i made rolls so i’m hoping to try this one out soon
Hi there! There really isn't a hard and fast rule for that. More yeast will rise flour more quickly but will result in less flavor, while less yeast will rise it to the same point over a longer period of time and will result in more flavor. So its all balancing time, temperature, and amount of yeast, if that makes sense.
If you choose to roll and then store in the refrigerator, do you place in the oven straight from the fridge at the same temperature or do you have to let it come to room temperature first? Thank you!
I'm making your recipe now. It's rising in my oven now. So far it's been really simple. It's been a few years since I have baked anything due to my health. 🤗 I definitely missed playing with dough 🤣.. ❤
I’m going to make these for my family for Easter dinner tomorrow ( 2022 ). I’ll make them like you instructed but I’m wondering if we made these into bigger sandwich size rolls like 6-8 per batch what temp and time would we bake them at? Also, would this dough make a good loaf of bread if we baked it in a lined meatloaf dish? If so, what time and temperature would we use for the loaf? Thank you so much for the approachable tutorial.
I'm sorry I didn't see your message before Easter. Yes, you can make the rolls bigger for sandwich size. You'll just want to bake them a bit longer at the same temp. And yes, you can also make a sandwich loaf out of this bread. Bake on 350F for about 35-45min.

@@BakerBettie I I’m
Well...I GIVE UP!!!! Yes I'm crying...I have tried making these TWICE...try try again...Well, it didn't work. The first dough was rather dense, the 2nd time around, it was very "loose" I can say it in Spanish but...it was loose!! What the heck did I not do...also the dough was kinda "yellow"...I'm used to making bread but my dough is always "white" , not sure...Can you give me some pointers? PLEASE..have always wanted to make these, and you are the bomb!!! Best instructor I have EVER had...thanks, linda
Thanks bunches for making it "do able". I always thought that it would be too hard and complicated to make yeast rolls, but you have done a great job at showing how to make them. They look yummy and I am really going to make time to make them. Thanks Bettie😄.
I hope you do! They are delicious!
I just watched this with my daughter and it was a very good video. We both enjoyed it and thank you for it.
Great to hear!
The rolls turned out wonderful. Great texture and slight sweetness.
If you crowd them into a 9x13 you may need to bake a little longer.
Very clear, well spoken and pleasant to watch. Thanks for the great content.
Thank you for your wonderful tutorial video. You really explained it very well and easy to understand the steps. I will definitely make this recipe.
You're welcome! I hope you enjoy them!
Ok.. this was the third recipe I’ve tried in two days… I wish it was my first.. saved and subscribed! Thank you.
I DID enjoy this video. I learned a lot about yeast in action, and....my dough is proofing as I type. Thanks so much!
I'm so glad to hear that Kristi! Hope you enjoy the rolls!
@@BakerBettie - the family LOVED them!
Since it's just my husband and I this year, can I freeze them at some point during the process: after shaping but before second rise?
I am looking forward to a nice batch of rolls. I’m making these for my grandsons for thanksgiving. Thanks for keeping it simple.
Hope you enjoyed them!
Thanks for the detailed instructions. I bought a big bag of Bread flour thought its better for making bread. Is it ok to use that flour instead of the all purpose flour?
Hi there! Bread flour is great for breads but is typically reserved for lean breads which have a much sturdier and chewier texture. Since this is an enriched bread, I don't typically use bread flour for it. That said, you can use it for this recipe if you like.
Trying out this recipe today! I already messed up by adding too much yeast but were praying that it works out 🥰 thank you so much for this video!!
How'd they turn out?
@@BakerBettie they turned out really good! I think I may have not needed enough or kneeded too much because they were less airy then expected. But they were still delish!
Thanks dear Bettie. All your recipes are well explained in detail. Appreciate you giving us the ingredients in GRAMS. 👍👍
Hi Bettie, what is the difference between letting your yeast activate with sugar and milk…or adding it in with the dry ingredients?
This is what I’d like to know.
I really enjoy watching your videos. I just found you today searching for baking flour. The first viedo was you showing the variations of flours and how to use them (maybe #7). Next, I chose to SUBSCRIBE and watched yeast rolls. Now, I'm not sitting and watching like in a class room. I am cooking dinner at 11:30 AM PST but cooking videos sooth me. As I cook and clean my kitchen, I look over to watch some of your tecniques. I will definitely sit still and watch more intensely. For now, you make my cooking so soothing. ...and I'm cooking spaghetti! I really appreciate your work. I wish when people "dislike", they would atleast tell you why they disliked the video. Their thoughts can help us grow. Instead, these UA-cam Police always hate. You are doing a good job and if anyone hates on you, you let them know I have a fan and she'll whoop your taile good!
I enjoyed your step by step dinner roll instructions. I would like to know if I can freeze the dough shaped dinner rolls?
Thank you so much for the detailed tutorial! I'm a new baker & learn so much more when visually
seeing the process. Making these Thanksgiving morning.
I hope you loved them!
I watched this video 3 years ago and have made these several times....delish......to say the least...I have one question about making them the day before and refrigerating them....would you pull them out say an hour prior to baking them to let them come up to room temp?? Or can they go right from the refrigerator to the oven...I'm thinking they'd have to come up to temp but I want to be sure....THANK YOU!!!!
The very first video I've ever watched an understood why my breads always failed.... Thanks Bettie. I now know my water was too hot and it prevented my bread. I'll try this out right now and let you know how it turns out.
Awesome! Let me know how it turns out!
I absolutely love your Tutorial. Very informative. Your guidance is exceptional.
Thank you for the recipe, I have one question why is my roll not consistent sometime it comes out nice, and sometimes it has elephant skin what wrong? can I mix APF with Bread flour to make it more chewie?
Best explanation of yeast I have heard so far. I am thinking about taking your course on yeast - I went there - confused - old guy - will try again.
Hi! Here is the link to signup for my Yeast Bread Essentials Course: betterbakingschool.com/p/yeast-bread-essentials
I tried the recipe that you linked in the description and then the recipe in your video, I liked the way the rolls from the video recipe turned out much better! I did the overnight proofing and baked them in the morning. Only problem I had was how long to cook them for, I kept thinking they were done but they weren’t, I determined cook time to be 25-30min at 375 in a convention oven, I did cover them with foil at the end to keep the tops from over browning.
Hi there. I’m glad you enjoyed the rolls! The written recipe is linked in the description is actually the same as the recipe in the video. That is just the written printable version!
Baker Bettie hmm must be my phone directing me to another recipe as the one in link calls for 1 egg, 4tbsp butter, 3 cups flour and video calls for 2 eggs, 6 tbsp butter and 4 cups flour with all other ingredients being the same. I’ll have to retry on computer. Thank you for reply!
Hi Baker Bettie,
I made these last weekend and the flavor is great but they are too crumbly and a little dense. I wonder what I can do better next time? I think I might have overproofed them? I used the active yeast (not rapid) and I let them proof about 3 hours (after I rolled them out) because if it was 90 min then I would have had to put them in the fridge and take them out an hour before cooking. Thanks!
This was an amazing video. I've never made yeast rolls before, but Bettie made it look so easy. She is a phenomenal teacher. She really helped me understand what I was doing and WHY I was doing it ( example: folding the dough under and making a seam). I really enjoyed this video and I will be looking for more of her videos. Thanks again, Bettie
My 9 year old granddaughter introduced you to me on her tablet. You inspire future bakers! She makes the best chocolate chip cookies(your recipe) Thank you baker Bettie! xo
Hi Margie! That makes me so incredibly happy! I try to explain things in a way that anyone could make it no matter how young or old or new or experienced baker. I'm so glad your granddaughter has already found joy in baking and glad she is bringing you along!
These rolls are the bomb diggity. Best I ever had. Thanks for posting ❤️
Thank you my family love resturant rolls and I want to make some for my fam without the machine you are a life saver
I love your video!! You explain the process clearly making our attempt at these rolls successful. I will be looking for more of your wonderful videos! Thank you Bettie!
I'm so glad you found it helpful! That is so great!
Merry Christmas 🎄 all and be safe.
I'm trying this ingredients. 🙏 My yeast rolls come out tasteful and wonderful..
This is such a great video! I’m loving the explanation to the ingredients. This helps me to learn and be able to tweak and make it my own. Thank you for the videi
Thanks a lot for your answer but I’m a disability person in an electric wheelchair with more than 90% problem on my body I’m French married for 42years with a Cretan guy & we used to live in Crete & now we live time in France in Normandy time in Crete My step parents (I was adopted) used to live in Naperville Illinois
Here in France my only grand son live with us because no parents & he’s going to be a French baker in Crete after a couple of years He’s 17 & half & ke’s going in a special university learning bakery breads & bakery sweet
We watch together your video & he was so surprised that he told it to his teacher for the salt & yeast
The answer was : This lady was lucky because here in France she would disqualified if she had done her mixes like this one !
Anyway I ‘m doing all my Greek & French recipes for more than 40 years now that why we believe that my grand son likes sooooo much to be a professional French & Greek baker in a couple of years He’s also thinking to go to the USA to work & learn more things to do . Happy to see your videos & have fun & health for the future bye (try not to keep “bad ideas” about my English but I learned English alone by myself sooo … )
I love this video! You made it look so easy, I’m going to try today to make some. I bought rapid rise yeast. Thanks!
I hope you enjoyed them Susan!
My family loved these. Thank you 😊
Betty, I'm all in with your stuff. One huge issue with me is exactness. My package of yeast said 21g's. So I measured tsp and found the amount in pkg to be exact Why the difference in weight? Fleshman's yeast Thank you and God bless!!!
Just found your channel and can’t wait to make these rolls. Did I miss what you’re supposed to do with the sheet pan; Do I grease it, or lay parchment, or dust it or just lay the dough balls right on the bare sheet pan? Thnx!
You àre so precised; tutorial is excellent ....will definitely make
Thank you I was making these for the first time. I didn’t have a whisk brush couldn’t find it so I just made the egg wash and then put on a glove and lightly whisked it with my fingers.👍🏽 I’m about to pit them in the oven … I’m excited 😅
You can also use a fork to whisk up an egg wash. Enjoy!
a lotta time involved in the RISING process ( than some other recipes)but i can take a wild guess and say it’s gona be worth it- been years since i made rolls so i’m hoping to try this one out soon
You can speed up the process by using instant yeast. Definitely worth it!
They look very good and, easy to make..Thank you for sharing !!!
The 1/4 cup she used will not make them very sweet, esp with the salt in them too. And I believe all help the yeast activate
Excellent..thanks for sharing..plz tell me how many teaspoon active dry yeast or rapid rising yeast is need to one cup of flour
Hi there! There really isn't a hard and fast rule for that. More yeast will rise flour more quickly but will result in less flavor, while less yeast will rise it to the same point over a longer period of time and will result in more flavor. So its all balancing time, temperature, and amount of yeast, if that makes sense.
If you choose to roll and then store in the refrigerator, do you place in the oven straight from the fridge at the same temperature or do you have to let it come to room temperature first? Thank you!
I'm making your recipe now. It's rising in my oven now. So far it's been really simple. It's been a few years since I have baked anything due to my health. 🤗 I definitely missed playing with dough 🤣.. ❤
Enjoy it! I hope you really love it!
These rolls are delicious with cream cheese and strawberry jam and a cup of tea 👌 thanks Bettie
Amazing recipe and outstanding results
Thanks a lot!
Nice! I was a bread baker in my teens. Basically the same process as I remember. Looking forward to making homemade yeast rolls with this recipe
Have fun with it!
Any tips on freezing them for later use?
My granddaughter has gluten sensitivity. Can these rools be made with oat flour and still come out soft & tender
I’m going to make these for my family for Easter dinner tomorrow ( 2022 ). I’ll make them like you instructed but I’m wondering if we made these into bigger sandwich size rolls like 6-8 per batch what temp and time would we bake them at? Also, would this dough make a good loaf of bread if we baked it in a lined meatloaf dish? If so, what time and temperature would we use for the loaf? Thank you so much for the approachable tutorial.
I'm sorry I didn't see your message before Easter. Yes, you can make the rolls bigger for sandwich size. You'll just want to bake them a bit longer at the same temp. And yes, you can also make a sandwich loaf out of this bread. Bake on 350F for about 35-45min.
