Best Ultimate Dinner Rolls Recipes

THE ULTIMATE DINNER ROLLS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine the warm milk, warm water, melted butter, and sugar.
• Sprinkle the yeast evenly over the wet ingredients, stir to combine, and let stand for 5 minutes, until foamy
• In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt, and stir to combine. Beat 1 egg, then add to the bloomed yeast mixture. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour and use a knife to stir until the mixture just comes together and forms a dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-10 minutes, or until the dough becomes smooth. Add more flour as needed to keep the dough from sticking. To test if it's done, tear off a small piece of dough and stretch into a thin layer. If the dough doesn't rip, it's ready. Or, press a finger into the dough to see if it bounces back.
• Lightly grease a large glass bowl with oil. Add the dough, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
• Punch down the dough, then turn out onto a floured surface. Knead for a few more minutes, just until the dough is smooth, about 2 minutes.
• Divide the dough into 16 equal balls, roughly the size of tangerines.
• Knead the balls, gathering the edges of the dough toward the center to make a taut, round ball with a smooth top.
• Place the rolls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Beat the remaining egg in a small bowl. Uncover the rolls and brush with the egg wash. Lightly sprinkle the rolls with sea salt.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the rolls have lightly browned and doubled in size.
• Enjoy!

BONNIE'S: THE ULTIMATE GLUTEN-FREE DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• 1. TIPS FOR SUCCESS: No substitutions, please. Bring ALL ingredients to room temperature before you begin! This includes the eggs and yeast. Always use superfine flour to get light bread. If it isn't superfine, pulse it in the food processor. Assemble all the ingredients before you start making the recipe, and follow the steps in the order given below.
• 2. Use a 9X16 pan with a parchment sleeve. Spray sides and bottom with kitchen spray.
• 3. Dry Ingredients: Use a kitchen scale to weigh all your flours for accuracy. Do not skip this step. Measuring cups can throw off your recipe by 1/4 to 1/3 of a cup! Mix all the Dry Ingredients in a medium bowl and set aside.
• 4. Proofing The Yeast: Measure 1 1/3 cup warm water, 110, degrees. Add two tablespoons of sugar and whisk until it dissolves. Add 3 teaspoons active dry yeast and whisk again until combined. Let it sit until a small dome forms, about 10 minutes.
• 5. Wet Ingredients: Meanwhile, mix the egg and egg yolk, and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice in the stand mixer's mixing bowl using the paddle attachment. Beat 1 minute on medium speed until well mixed. Add about a half cup of the flour mixture and then add the diced butter, yeast mixture, and then gradually add the rest of the flour.
• 6. Do not add any extra flour or liquid. Beat on medium speed for 5 minutes. It will be very thick.
• 7. Making The Rolls: This is the fun part. Use a 2 inch scoop to form the rolls. Dip it in water, shake off excess.
• 8. Place about a teaspoon of tapioca flour in the palm of your left hand. (Assuming you are right-handed!)
• 9. Scoop the ball into your left palm on top of the flour, and then roll the 'ball' forward on your fingers, and it will pick up a very small amount of the flour and allow you to shape it easily into a roll. Add a tiny bit more flour only if needed. After you have made one, you will see how easy it is. This technique will allow you to form rolls with a minimal amount of flour. Using too much flour will keep gluten-free yeast rolls from rising properly.
• 10. Place each roll in the prepared pan with sides almost touching. A 2-inch scoop makes 20 rolls, side by side, in a 9 X 16 pan.
• 11. I warm my oven just before setting my rolls in it to rise. Cover the rolls with a light towel, leave the oven light on and shut the door.
• 12. Let the rolls rise 30 minutes until doubled in size. Gently remove rolls from oven and set on a counter while you preheat the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• 13. Make The Egg Wash: Don't skip this step because it enhances browning and appearance of rolls. Beat one egg, 1 teaspoon water, and 1 pinch of salt.
• 14. After the rolls have risen, brush on the egg wash until all the rolls are covered. You won't use all the egg wash.
• 15. Bake rolls in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the test thermometer says 200 degrees. They should be nice and brown.
• 16. Cool in pan for ten minutes, then move over to a rack. Lift the rolls out of the pan with the parchment sleeve. Note: Store rolls in baggies in a ziplock in the freezer. Warm rolls in the oven wrapped in tin foil.
• 17. Try some hot with jelly! Enjoy!

DREW'S ULTIMATE DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, combine 1 cup of the flour with the milk, orange zest, orange juice, egg, butter, sugar, yeast, and kosher salt. Mix on low speed until the flour is incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Increase the speed to medium and continue mixing the dough for 2 minutes.
• Add another 1/2 cup of the flour and continue mixing until it is incorporated. Add the remaining 3/4 cup flour and mix until combined and the dough begins to form a ball. The dough should be sticky but pulling away from the sides of the bowl. If it is too sticky, add more flour, 2 tablespoons at a time, as needed.
• Lightly flour your work surface. Turn out the dough and knead until it comes together into a smooth ball, about 2 minutes. Transfer the dough to a greased bowl, cover the bowl with a towel, and let rest in a warm, dark place until the dough has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Grease an 8-inch round baking dish with cooking spray. Divide the dough into 12 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then arrange the balls in a single layer in the prepared pan. Cover the pan with a towel, then return it to the warm, dark place for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Uncover the rolls, brush with additional melted butter, and sprinkle with sea salt. Bake until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the rolls from the oven, brush them again with melted butter, and serve warm.
