You can make fresh, buttery yeast rolls at home that taste just as good – if not better, even. This easy yeast roll recipe is perfect for a special occasion as well as just to elevate the weeknight meal to special occasion status. Isn’t it fun when you do that? Just take the weeknight pot roast meal and dress it up a bit? Because you know, every day really is a special occasion. Tomorrow certainly won’t be the same and we won’t have the chance to have the same day ever again. We should absolutely make the most of it, shouldn’t we? So, let’s get started on these rolls! Combine your ingredients in a large bowl. Add your warm water. Gently combine just until moistened. Be sure not to overwork the dough. Pour your dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. And gently knead to pull the dough together. You’ll want to use a gentle hand at this point so as not to over-knead the dough. Using a cutter, go ahead and begin cutting your rolls out. Place your cut rolls into a lightly greased cast iron skillet. As you can see, I went for the rustic look with my rolls (ha ha!) and simply placed them into the skillet as I’d cut them. If you want a more rounded roll when they are finished, at this point take each roll and roll it between the palms of your hands until it is smooth and rounded. Then place the rounded roll dough ball into the skillet. Cover your skillet lightly with a clean tea towel and allow to rise until they have doubled in bulk. You’ll see in the photograph how the dough has now risen to the point that the roll dough is touching all throughout the skillet. Timing will vary on how long it takes for your dough to double in bulk. It will depend on the heat in the area you have placed your dough, etc. At this point, I add a butter topping to the rolls before baking. And then just a little bit more. Boy, does that butter make a roll! Here’s my yeast roll recipe. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do! Love ya!Robyn xoxo
