Indulging in Homemade Rolls

Bread lovers rejoice! There’s something irresistible about the soft, doughy goodness of freshly baked rolls, especially during holiday dinners.

Nostalgic Inspiration

Inspired by cherished memories of her grandmother’s homemade rolls, Kristine shares a classic Southern-inspired yeast roll recipe perfect for the upcoming holidays.

Preparing the Ingredients

Gather the following ingredients: whole milk, granulated sugar, active dry yeast, softened butter, eggs, all-purpose flour, salt, and cooking oil.

Crafting the Dough

Warm a portion of the milk and mix it with yeast and a dash of sugar until fizzy and puffy.
Combine flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Gradually add the remaining milk, softened butter, yeast mixture, and one egg. Mix thoroughly.

Kneading and Rising

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rest for 15 minutes.
Knead the dough until elastic, either by hand or with an electric mixer and dough hook. Add cooking oil to the bowl, return the dough, and let it rise for an hour.

Shaping and Baking

Grease a baking pan and punch down the dough. Divide it into individual balls and place them in the pan. Let them rise for another hour.
Beat the remaining egg and brush it over the dough balls before baking at 350 degrees F for 15 to 20 minutes until golden brown.

Enjoying the Fruits of Your Labor

Once baked, transfer the rolls to a wire rack to cool before serving. Slather them with butter and savor the homemade goodness.

A Homemade Holiday Treat

This holiday season, skip the store-bought rolls and opt for the warm, nostalgic aroma of homemade yeast rolls.
