It's Christmas Eve, Eve...

We're getting ready for the Holiday over here and today I'm doing my last minute grocery shopping.  I like to start any make ahead items that I have on the menu the day before the holiday so that the cooking on the big day is stress free....or at least less frantic!

I make my dessert the day before, such as this Easy Chocolate Coconut Tart or my Pumpkin Pie with Orange Marmalade.  I prep my salads such as Ina's Winter Slaw or my Arugula Spinach Salad with Feta, Cranberries, and Pecans and dress them the day of.  Plus I also make any type of homemade bread if I'm serving that.

1 HOUR DINNER ROLLS

Today we are going to make 1 Hour Dinner Rolls.  These rolls are sooooo delicious and really super easy to make.  Honestly, a stand mixer does all the work for you so you can have hot steamy homemade rolls in an hour.  Don't be put off by the though of using yeast.  It really is easy to use and this recipe doesn't require any special yeast blooming techniques and very little proofing of the dough, so you get your rolls done quick and easy.  That's my kind of bread baking!  We don't have time these days, especially on a holiday, to put a lot of time and effort into one dish when there are so many to focus on.  This recipe is an honest to goodness simple basic dinner roll recipe that is done in a flash.  This will be your go-to recipe for dinner rolls from now on!

As I mentioned your stand mixer is the key here. You'll add your ingredients and mix up the dough, a really simple step.  You'll need to use the dough hook for this recipe, which will knead your dough so you don't  have to do it by hand.  Half the battle is done for you!  After a short proofing in a bowl, then you will just need to roll them into balls and place them on a tray to proof one more time and then bake!  Poof! fresh rolls!

How do you reheat dinner rolls?  As I am making these the day before our meal you can reheat these rolls easily by wrapping them in foil and placing them in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes.

Storing dinner rolls:  Your rolls should be placed in an airtight bag or container on the counter for several days.

Can I freeze these dinner rolls?  Yes!  You can freeze these rolls for up to 6 weeks.  Thaw the rolls and heat them up or eat at room temperature.  They come out really well frozen.

1 Hour Dinner Rolls

yield: 16 rolls


4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon instant yeast (rapid rise yeast) 
2 tablespoons sugar 
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter, softened 
1 1/2 cups warm water
    Topping: 3 Tablespoons butter, melted
    In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, add the flour, yeast, sugar and salt. Mix to combine.
    Add in the softened butter and mix on low speed until the butter breaks up into large breadcrumbs. While still mixing, slowly stream in the water. (Note: add enough water all for your dough to form a tight ball and clean the bottom of the bowl. You might not need all the liquid)
    Increase the speed to medium and knead until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes.
    Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and form it into an even ball. Using a dough cutter or knife, cut the dough in half. Roll each half of the dough into a long log. Cut each log into 8 rolls. Roll each one into the shape of a ball (see easy rolling technique in video above) Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place each rolled piece of dough about 1 inch apart.
    While the rolls are rising, melt the butter in a small bowl. Set aside.
    When the rolls have risen for the second time and joined together, lightly brush the rolls with half of the melted butter (reserve the other half for after they are baked).
    Bake until golden brown, roughly 18-22 minutes. Immediately after removing the rolls from the oven, brush them with the remaining melted butter.
