Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     Rolls and Buns

Time 2h55m

Yield 42

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
2 cups warm water
6 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup melted shortening
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, or as needed

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast in warm water in a mixing bowl. Let stand until yeast is frothy, about 5 minutes.
  • Add 2 cups flour, sugar, and salt to the yeast mixture. Beat with an electric mixer for 2 minutes. Add shortening and eggs; beat for 2 minutes more. Slowly add remaining flour and mix well. Let dough rise in a warm place, undisturbed, until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Punch down dough and divide into 42 pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and arrange on a rimmed baking sheet. Let rolls rise in a warm spot, undisturbed, until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and gently brush tops with butter.

I've never made rolls before, but these were so easy to make. I'm definitely going to try more of your recipes.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my rolls came out flat and hard. Maybe I didn't knead the dough enough?

These rolls were a bit dense for my taste, but they had a good flavor. I think I'll try adding a little more baking powder next time.

OMG, these rolls are so good! They're soft and fluffy on the inside, and have a slightly crispy crust. I can't believe how easy they were to make. I'll definitely be making these again.

These rolls are a blast from the past! They taste just like the ones I used to get in the school cafeteria. I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfectly. My kids loved them too!
