Ingredients

  • 4-1/2 to 5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons salt
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • FOR EVERYTHING DINNER ROLLS:
  • 1 teaspoon poppy seeds
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1 teaspoon dried minced onion
  • FOR PARM-GARLIC DINNER ROLLS:
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried minced garlic
  • FOR ALMOND HERB DINNER ROLLS:
  • 2 tablespoons chopped sliced almonds
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil

Directions

  • In a large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, sugar, yeast and salt. In a small saucepan, heat the milk, water and butter to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. Add 2 eggs; beat on high speed for 2 minutes. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky).
  • Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 24 portions. Shape into balls. Divide between two greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pans.
  • Cover with a clean, lightweight towel and let rise until doubled, about 30 min. Brush with lightly beaten egg. Sprinkle with toppings for rolls of your choice.
  • Bake at 375° for 10-15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks. Yield: 2 dozen.

    CLOVERLEAF ROLLS: Make dough as directed; divide into 24 portions. Divide each into three equal pieces; shape into balls. Place three balls in each greased muffin cup. Let rise, top and bake as directed. TWISTS: Make dough as directed; divide into 24 portions. Shape into balls; roll each into a 10-in. rope. Fold in half and twist two or three times, holding both ends. Pinch rope ends to seal. Let rise, top and bake as directed. ROSETTES: Make dough as directed; divide into 24 portions. Shape into balls; roll each into a 10-in. rope. Tie loose knot in the center of rope. Bring bottom end up and tuck into center of roll; wrap top end around and tuck under roll. Let rise, top and bake as directed.

I made these rolls last night for Thanksgiving dinner. They were pretty good. They were not the "best" rolls I have ever made but they were still good. I made the parmesan topping and the almond-herb topping. The almond-herb was the favorite.

I made these today for Thanksgiving dinner. Used a modified version of the "everything" toppings. I don't know if they were superior enough to be called the "best" but they were definitely as good as any I've made!

I've already made 4 batches. I just put all the ingredients into my bread machine on the dough cycle. Very easy.

I have never had much luck with homemade rolls and bread but decided to give these a try. They were delicious. Will make again.
