1 Hour Yeast Dinner Rolls Recipes

ONE-HOUR DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180 degrees Fahrenheit. In the bowl of an electric stand mixer whisk together 3 3/4 cups flour, sugar, yeast and salt.
• To a medium bowl add water, milk and butter and heat in microwave on HIGH power until it reaches 120 degrees on a thermometer, about 1 minute 15 seconds. Stir to partially melt butter (you just want to make sure it's softened through).
• Pour milk mixture into dry mixture in bowl of electric stand mixer along with lemon juice.
• Set mixer with a hook attachment then set mixer on low speed and gradually increase to medium-low, knead about 3 - 4 minutes until smooth and elastic while adding additional flour as necessary (dough should be lightly sticky but manageable).
• Cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap and rest 5 minutes. Meanwhile butter a 13 by 9-inch baking dish.
• Drop dough onto a lightly floured surface. Shape into an evenly level square, about 9 by 9-inches. Cut into 16 equal portions (don't have to be exact)
• Shape dough into 15 balls, while using excess dough from the 16th portion to add to smaller rounds as needed, and place shaped dough portions into prepared baking dish.
• Dampen hands with water and brush tops of dough with the water (just so they don't dry while rising in oven). Transfer to oven, close oven and turn oven off, allow rolls to rise 20 minutes (don't open oven door).
• Remove from oven and preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (this should take about 5 minutes, so just allow rolls to rest on counter while oven preheats).
• Bake in preheated oven 14 - 16 minutes until tops are golden brown. Remove from oven and run the top of a stick of butter along tops of rolls just to coat. Serve warm. Store in an airtight container (I recommend rewarming cool rolls in microwave for best results.

FLUFFY ONE HOUR YEAST ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425.
• In a large bowl combine 1/2 of the flour with sugar, yeast and salt. Stir until mixed. In microwave heat milk until just under the boiling point. Pour into dry mixture. Melt butter, combine with water and add to flour mixture; stir until combined. Add remaining flour while stirring until dough leaves the sides of bowl and forms a ball. Turn dough out on a lightly floured board and knead in enough remaining flour until dough is smooth and elastic.
• Wash out bowl and grease inside with oil. Placedough in greased bowl to rise. Cover with plastic wrap and a towel. Run 2 inches of very warm water in sink. Place bowl in water to speed rising. Allow to rise for 15 minutes.
• Divide and shape dough as desired. Cover and let rise another 15 minutes. Bake at 425 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

ONE HOUR YEAST DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• In a food processor, mix together the flour, yeast, dry milk, sugar and salt.
• Add water and oil and process until a thick sticky dough forms.
• Let stand for 5 minutes.
• Butter an 8" round cake pan.
• Turn dough out gently onto a floured board.
• With a floured knife, cut the dough into quarters.
• Cut each quarter into quarters and shape the dough into balls, adding flour to prevent stickiness.
• Place dough pieces close together into the prepared pan.
• Cover and let rise in a warm place for 25 minutes or until rolls are puffy.
• Preheat oven to 400°.
• Drizzle the melted butter over the rolls.
• Bake for 20 minutes or until golden.

1 HOUR DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Set the oven to warm or alternately as low as you can set it if you don't have a warm option, about 170°. Lightly spray a 9x13 pan with pan spray and set it aside.
• In the bowl of your mixer whisk together the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
• In another bowl combine the warm milk and 4 tablespoons of melted butter. Using the dough hook on low, slowly add the liquid to the dry ingredients. Knead the dough for about 4 minutes or so, until it is smooth and elastic. If the dough is still very sticky, add more flour 1-2 tablespoons at a time.
• Once you have achieved a smooth dough, cover the bowl and let rest for about 5-10 minutes.
• Once the dough has rested, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and divide the dough as evenly as you can into 15 pieces. I like to use a kitchen scale so I can get them equal in size. Weigh the whole ball of dough in grams and then divide it by 15. That's the weight each roll should be. Shape each piece into a ball and pinch the dough together on the bottom.
• Place the dough balls into the baking pan and use your fingers to rub a little bit of water over the tops of the balls so they don't dry out while baking. Transfer to the warm oven and let rise for 20 minutes, or up to 30 minutes if they have not doubled in size after 20. I find it can be helpful to use a spray bottle to spray the bottom of the oven to create steam to help the rolls rise faster.
• Remove the risen rolls from the oven and bump the heat up to 375°. As soon as the oven has preheated, bake the rolls for 16-18 minutes, until the tops are golden brown. Brush with melted butter as soon as they come out of the oven.
