Dinner Rolls

Since I was off for 2 weeks for Christmas break I did get more time to bake. I stocked up on flour, eggs and butter just so we could do so. These dinner rolls are so good and easy to make, a great addition to any meal or sandwich for lunch! I didn't roll them into neat little balls I just cut them with a dough cutter and placed it in a round stoneware baker. Just covered with a clean linen dish cloth to rise, no butter.


Dinner Rolls - recipe from For the Love of Cooking

1 cup water
2 tablespoons butter (softened)
1 egg (held under warm water)
3 1/4 cups flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons yeast

Add ingredients to your bread machine in order listed
Select the dough cycle and press start. When dough is ready, divide dough into 15 pieces and shape each piece into a ball. Place 2 inches apart on greased cookie sheet, or stoneware pan (like I do) Brush with butter then cover; let rise in a warm place 30 to 4o minutes or until doubled in size.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and bake 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Enjoy


Can you believe I made these? Yum!

  6. Oh, Lindsey! these are the kind of dinner rolls that I would have to have on hand, and even freeze them. So, so, perfect, soft, and over the top super delicious. I do have a bread machine, which I rarely use, even when I make things with yeast, and have all the ingredients on hand.

    After seeing your gorgeous dinner rolls, I will make these this weekend, even if I'm on my WW diet, I can still have 1 roll, and let the family eat the rest!
    Thanks for sharing my all-time fave dinner rolls! Woo hooo!xoxo

  19. That sure looks yummy! And what's funny: my mom told me this weekend that she has made something similar for the first time (the Austrian version called "Striezel") and that she will send me the recipe. As soon as I receive it, I'll try it out and write a post, with a link to your recipe. Cheers from France!
