Dark And Soft Dinner Rolls Recipes

SOFT DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Place bread flour, water, sugar, egg, 2 tablespoons softened butter, yeast, and salt into the pan of your bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select the Dough cycle and press Start. When the cycle is complete, remove the dough and press down to deflate.
• Divide dough into 15 equal pieces and form into rolls. Place rolls in prepared baking dish, brush with melted butter, and cover dish loosely with plastic wrap; let rise until doubled in volume, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake rolls in the preheated oven until the tops are golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.

CLASSIC DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine 3/4 cup flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Heat milk, water and butter until very warm (120 degrees to 130 degrees F). Add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add 1/4 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed. Stir in enough remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.
• Divide dough into 12 equal pieces; shape into balls. Place in greased 8-inch round pan. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
• Bake in preheated 375 degrees F oven for 20 minutes or until done. Remove from pan; brush with additional melted butter, if desired. Serve warm.

THE ULTIMATE DINNER ROLLS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine the warm milk, warm water, melted butter, and sugar.
• Sprinkle the yeast evenly over the wet ingredients, stir to combine, and let stand for 5 minutes, until foamy
• In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt, and stir to combine. Beat 1 egg, then add to the bloomed yeast mixture. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour and use a knife to stir until the mixture just comes together and forms a dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-10 minutes, or until the dough becomes smooth. Add more flour as needed to keep the dough from sticking. To test if it's done, tear off a small piece of dough and stretch into a thin layer. If the dough doesn't rip, it's ready. Or, press a finger into the dough to see if it bounces back.
• Lightly grease a large glass bowl with oil. Add the dough, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
• Punch down the dough, then turn out onto a floured surface. Knead for a few more minutes, just until the dough is smooth, about 2 minutes.
• Divide the dough into 16 equal balls, roughly the size of tangerines.
• Knead the balls, gathering the edges of the dough toward the center to make a taut, round ball with a smooth top.
• Place the rolls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Beat the remaining egg in a small bowl. Uncover the rolls and brush with the egg wash. Lightly sprinkle the rolls with sea salt.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the rolls have lightly browned and doubled in size.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• To prepare the dough: In large bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of the bread flour, the cocoa powder and yeast.

• Add water mixture to flour mixture.
• Beat with an electric mixture on low to medium speed for 30 seconds, scraping sides of bowl constantly.
• Beat on high speed for 3 minutes.
• Using a wooden spoon, stir in whole wheat flour and as much of the remaining bread flour as you can.
• Turn dough out on a lightly floured surface.
• Knead in enough remaining bread flour to make smooth, elastic, and moderately soft dough (3-5 minutes total).
• Shape into a ball.
• Place in a lightly greased bowl, turning once to grease surface.
• Cover, let rise in a warm place until double in size (about 2 hours).
• To shape the rolls: Punch down dough.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
• Divide into nine or 10 portions.
• Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, lightly grease a large baking sheet; set aside.
• Gently pull each portion into a 5x2-inch oval roll, tucking edges under to make smooth tops.
• Place on prepared baking sheet.
• Brush rolls with melted butter.
• Using a knife, make three diagonal cuts in the top of each roll.
• Cover; let rise until nearly double in size (1 1/2 to 2 hours).
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• To bake the rolls, uncover rolls.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes or until roll bottoms are lightly browned (or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of roll registers 200 degrees F).

DARK AND SOFT DINNER ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine all of the dough ingredients in the bucket of a bread machine, or in an electric mixer. If you are using instant yeast, just mix. If you are using regular yeast, warm the milk, water and honey or honey/molasses and "proof" with the yeast (let the yeast wake up and get all bubbly- about 5 mins).
• Mix and knead until you've formed a smooth, slightly sticky dough. It's a sticky dough and a bit messy at first, but just keep at it, flouring your hands and trying not to add too much additional flour to the dough; eventually it'll smooth out.
• Let the dough rise in the bowl covered with a kitchen towel (or bucket of the bread machine) for 1 hour. It may not have doubled in size, but should be just a bit puffy.
• Punch down and either shape into 10 small loaves and place on a slightly oiled cookie sheet or into 24 small balls in a muffin pan.
• Cover with a kitchen towel and place in a warm place for about 2 hours. They may not have doubled in size, but will appear puffy.
• Bake the rolls in a preheated 350°F oven for about 25 minutes, or until lightly browned.
• Remove from oven and cool on a rack (if made in a muffin pan, remove from the cups as soon as possible and cool on rack).
