These fluffy rolls go perfectly with any meal. They have a delicious homemade flavor that's irresistible. I like them because they're not hard to make and they bake up nice and high. -Patricia Staudt, Marble Rock, Iowa

Oatmeal Dinner Rolls Recipe

  • Yield: 18 Servings
40 20 60

Ingredients

  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup quick-cooking oats
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
  • 1/3 cup warm water (110° to 115°)
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 4-3/4 to 5-1/4 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

  • In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil; add oats and butter. Cook and stir for 1 minute. Remove from the heat; cool to lukewarm.
  • In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the oat mixture, sugars, salt and 4 cups of flour; beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
  • Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
  • Punch dough down; allow to rest for 10 minutes. Shape into 18 balls. Place in two greased 9-in. round baking pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  • Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to wire racks. Yield: 1-1/2 dozen.

Made this recipe into bread loaves. I could not believe how moist it was, with so little butter.

I made these for my grandson's 24th birthday. I doubled the recipe and everyone just loved over them. I can hardly wait to make them again... I will serve them with my honey butter, although it is not necessary for sure. There GGGGReatttt

I have made this recipe many times! We absolutely love them! I make the oatmeal in the microwave to simplify.

These are wonderful. I have a roll recipe I've made and loved for years but this one tops it! Both hubby and I consider this our new favorite.

I have been making this a few times a year - Huge favorite with stews, roasts, and the big chicken dinner.

I have been making these for many years since seeing the recipe in one of the hardcover books. They are ALWAYS a huge hit and worth the effort! I made them last December for an event our church hosts - feeding dinner to over 100 volunteers. People kept coming back asking if they could have another roll!

I like to divide the dough into two - and then into 12 pieces for each dough ball. I put the formed rolls into two round pans making the finished product a nice presentation! This makes 24 nice sized dinner rolls. When I used to make them according to the recipe, as 18 rolls, they were really too large for a dinner roll, in my opinion.

It's my favorite roll recipe! A treasured keepsake!
