Easy Big Fat Yeast Rolls Recipe 😋

These yeast rolls are soft, fluffy, and perfect for any occasion. Whether you’re serving them with a holiday meal or just enjoying them with a bowl of soup, these rolls are sure to be a hit.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup warm water (about 110°F / 45°C)
  • 1 packet active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons softened butter (or non-dairy equivalent)
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 3 1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions:

Step 1: Activate the Yeast

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Stir gently to dissolve.
  2. Add the sugar, salt, softened butter, and beaten egg to the yeast mixture. Mix everything together using a dough hook or whisk.

Step 2: Add the Flour

  1. Gradually add 3 1/2 cups of flour, a little at a time, while mixing with the dough hook or a wooden spoon. Continue adding flour until the dough forms a soft ball. You may need to add the full 4 cups of flour depending on the humidity and type of flour you’re using.
  2. The dough should not be sticky, but it should be smooth and elastic.

Step 3: Knead the Dough

  1. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Knead for about 3-4 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic. If the dough feels sticky, add a little more flour, but be careful not to add too much.

Step 4: First Rise

  1. Place the dough into a greased bowl and cover it with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel.
  2. Let the dough rise in a warm place for approximately 45 minutes, or until it has doubled in size.

Step 5: Shape the Rolls

  1. After the dough has risen, punch it down gently to release the air.
  2. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and shape it into 12 even-sized rolls.
  3. Arrange the rolls in a greased 13×9-inch baking pan, leaving a little space between each roll.

Step 6: Second Rise

  1. Cover the pan with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let the rolls rise for another 30 minutes, until they puff up.

Step 7: Bake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Bake the rolls for about 20 minutes or until they are golden brown on top.

Step 8: Finishing Touch

  1. Once the rolls are baked, remove them from the oven and brush the tops with melted butter (or non-dairy equivalent) for an extra touch of flavor and shine.

Serving Suggestions:

  • Serve these rolls warm with butter, jam, or even as a side to soups and stews. They’re also great for making sandwiches!

Enjoy your delicious, big, soft, and fluffy yeast rolls! 😋
