    Homemade Dinner Rolls

    July 21, 2011 by Margaret

    Basket of freshly baked dinner rolls with tableware in background. Macro with shallow dof.

    Makes: 24 to 36 rolls

    Prep: 45 minutes

    Rise: 1 hour 30 minutes If you are using a Bosch mixer you can skip the first rising

    Bake: 12 minutes

    Ingredients

    • 4-¼ to 4-¾ cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 package active dry yeast
    • 1 cup milk
    • ⅓ cup sugar
    • ⅓ cup butter, margarine, or shortening
    • ¾ teaspoon salt
    • 2 beaten eggs

    Directions

    1. In a large mixing bowl stir together 2 cups of the flour and the yeast. In a medium saucepan heat and stir milk, sugar, butter, and salt just until warm (120 degree F to 130 degree F) and butter almost melts. Add milk mixture to dry mixture along with eggs. Beat with an electric mixer on low to medium speed for 30 seconds, scraping sides of bowl constantly. Beat on high speed 3 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can.
    2. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough that is smooth and elastic (6 to 8 minutes total). Shape the dough into a ball. Place in a lightly greased bowl; turn once. Cover; let rise in a warm place until double (about 1 hour). If you are using a Bosch you can skip this rising
    3. Punch dough down. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough in half. Cover; let rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, depending on what shape of roll you wish to make, lightly grease baking sheets or muffin cups.
    4. Shape the dough into desired rolls and place on prepared baking sheets or in muffin cups. Cover and let rise in a warm place until nearly double in size (about 30 minutes).
    5. Bake in a 375 degree F oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden. Immediately remove rolls from pans. Cool on wire racks. Makes 24 to 36 rolls.

     

    Make-Ahead Tip: Cover shaped rolls loosely with plastic wrap, leaving room for rolls to rise. Chill 2 to 24 hours. Uncover; let stand at room temperature 30 minutes. Bake
