Easy 30-min Dinner Rolls
"Easy 30-Minute Dinner Rolls are made with a few basic ingredients, you don’t need a mixer, and they turn out perfectly soft and delicious every time! The best quick dinner roll recipe I have ever tried! Easy 30-Minute Dinner Rolls are a staple in my house – I make them almost every Sunday and since I discovered this recipe I just can’t bring myself to make any of my other dinner roll recipes because they take so much longer! I had tried a lot of quick dinner roll recipes before this one, but most of didn’t up being quite as fast as they claimed, or they just didn’t taste very good! I had almost given up on finding a roll recipe that I liked that took less than 2-3 hours to make, but then I discovered this one!"
Serves12
Preparation Time20 min
Cooking Time10 min
Ingredients
- 3 cups flour, divided
- 2 tablespoons regular yeast
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup hot water (Around 110° F)
- 1 egg
- 1 cup melted butter OR oil (vegetable, coconut, canola, etc.)
-
Combine 1 1/2 cups flour with yeast; stir together with a spoon until well combined.
-
Add sugar and salt, mix well.
-
Add hot water and stir to combine, then add the melted butter and the egg. Mix completely (until the butter and the egg are no longer visible).
-
Add the remaining 2 cups of flour and mix until the flour is incorporated. Dough will be sticky. At this point, I like to add just a little bit more flour and incorporate it into the dough with my hands for about 1 minute. The dough should then be smooth and not sticky.
-
You can shape the rolls however you prefer – I usually make crescent rolls because it’s fast. To do this, you just roll the dough into a large circle (1/8-1/4 inch thick). Cut the dough into triangles with a pizza cutter and then starting with the larger end of each triangle, roll the dough up.
-
Place on a lightly sprayed cookie sheet, making sure that the tip of the triangle is tucked under the roll. Let the rolls rise for 10-15 minutes and then bake them at 425 for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden brown on top. (Mine are always done right at 10 minutes.) I like to brush the rolls with a little bit of melted butter right when they come out of the oven – so yummy!
