These Delicious Quick Dinner Rolls are soft, tender, and incredibly simple to make. They’re absolutely delicious and perfect for holiday dinners, parties or any meal.

Pan of delicious, quick dinner rolls

These Lion House rolls are always going to be my most favorite rolls in the history of the world, and these rustic dinner rolls are probably a close second, but you can never have too many favorite rolls, right?

These Delicious Quick Dinner Rolls are going to make your life so much easier, especially when you’re in a pinch and need rolls sooner than later.

So even if you’re like me and have your favorites, I promise these rolls are worth a try.

These rolls are so good! They’re soft and fluffy, but not so much that they fall apart. You can load them up with as much butter and jam as you’d like and they will hold up just fine.

We used these the other night to make turkey sandwiches on and can I just say they were some of the best turkey sandwiches we’ve eaten.

Thanksgiving is a week away, which gives you plenty of time to give these a trial run, and I highly recommend that you do.

TIPS FOR MAKING THESE ROLLS:

  • Make sure you don’t add too much flour. You most likely will not use the full 7 cups for flour (I never have). You want the dough to be slightly sticky/tacky. Don’t worry about the dough sticking to your hands when you form it into balls, if it does, you can spray cooking spray on your hands to prevent it from sticking. If you use too much flour, the rolls will be heavy and nearly as good.
  • If you want to freeze these rolls, let them rise for about 10 minutes on the counter after you’ve placed them on the pans, then wrap them in freezer-safe bags, or a double layer of bread bags (this works great if you use round pans, if not use a few layers of plastic wrap), seal well and place in the freezer for up to 4 weeks. To bake after freezing, remove the wrapped buns from the freezer the night before you want to bake them and let them thaw in the fridge overnight. Bake at 350°F,  and add about 5 to 10 extra minutes to the baking time to account for the chilled dough.
  • I like to weigh my dough balls and get them as close to all the same size as possible, this isn’t necessary, I just like them to be all the same size (I know, lame!)

Description

These Delicious Quick Dinner Rolls are soft, tender, and incredibly simple to make. They’re absolutely delicious and perfect for holiday dinners, parties or any meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups warm milk (100°F to 110°F)
  • 3 tablespoons softened butter, cut into chunks
  • 1/2 cup lukewarm water
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons instant yeast
  • 6 to 7 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Grease or line any of the following pans: one half-sheet baking pan (large cookie sheet), two quarter-sheet pans, two 13″ x 9″ x 2″ pans, or four 8″ or 9″ round baking pans
  2. In a glass measuring cup add milk and butter and microwave for 70 seconds. Combine the milk/butter mixture, water, sugar, salt and yeast in the bowl of your stand mixer. Stir well and let sit for 5 minutes (yeast should be begin to foam).
  3. Add 5 cups of flour and mix with the paddle attachment until the dough forms a rough, shaggy mass (the dough won’t form a ball at this point).
  4. Switch to the dough hook and add flour, 1/4 cup at a time and blend until a smooth ball begins to form. Continue mixing for 4 to 5 minutes until a soft, smooth ball of dough is formed (the dough should feel elastic and slightly tacky to the touch — don’t add to much flour!).
  5. Lightly spray a bowl with cooking spray and place the dough in the bowl, cover lightly with plastic wrap. Let rise for 20 minutes at room temperature.
  6. Gently deflate the dough and divide it half. Using a knife or bread scraper cut 12 equal portions from each half (24 pieces of dough total) and shape into round balls, and place on prepared pans. (*You can also just pull off pieces of dough with your hands. I do like to weigh each dough ball just to keep my rolls as uniform in size as possible.)
  7. Cover rolls with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature for another 20 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  8. Bake the rolls for 20 to 23 minutes or until golden brown. Brush with melted butter after they come out of the oven, if desired.
