⭐ A Short History
Snack rolls have been a part of kitchens for centuries, evolving from simple dinner rolls and sweetened breads. In the United States, enriched rolls with butter, milk, and eggs became popular in the 20th century as an easy, comforting homemade treat.
The modern soft roll is beloved for its tender crumb, mild sweetness, and buttery flavor — ideal for family meals and gatherings. These little rolls take that tradition to the next level: quick, simple, and downright addictive.
⭐ Ingredients
For the Dough
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
½ cup warm milk (110°F/45°C)
¼ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 large egg
1 tsp salt
For the Topping
2 tbsp melted butter (for brushing)
Optional: coarse sugar or cinnamon sugar
Optional Fillings
Cinnamon sugar
Chocolate chips
Jam or preserves
Cheese
⭐ Instructions
1. Activate Yeast
In a small bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let sit 5–10 minutes until foamy.
2. Make the Dough
In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Add melted butter, egg, and yeast mixture. Stir until a soft dough forms.
3. Knead the Dough
Turn onto a floured surface and knead 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise 1–1.5 hours, until doubled.
4. Shape the Rolls
Punch down dough. Divide into 12–16 pieces. Shape into balls or desired forms and place on a greased baking sheet, leaving space between rolls.
5. Second Rise
Cover and let rise 30–40 minutes until puffy.
6. Bake
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake 15–18 minutes until golden brown.
7. Finish
Brush warm rolls with melted butter. Optional: sprinkle with coarse sugar or cinnamon sugar. Serve warm.
⭐ Methods
Quick Rise: Place dough in a slightly warm oven for faster rising.
Overnight Rise: Shape rolls, refrigerate overnight, and bake in the morning.
Flavored Rolls: Add cinnamon sugar, chocolate chips, or cheese to the center.
Freezer-Friendly: Freeze unbaked rolls; bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes.
⭐ Formation / How This Recipe Works
Yeast gives soft, airy texture.
Butter and egg enrich the dough, making it tender.
