Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 sticks butter or margarine, melted
  • 8 oz. low-fat sour cream
  • 2 cups self-rising flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Mix melted butter, sour cream, and self-rising flour until well combined.
  3. Spoon the batter into small muffin tins.
  4. Bake for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Tips & Substitutions

For a richer flavor, consider using a mix of butter and margarine. You can substitute Greek yogurt for the sour cream for a tangier taste and added protein. If you don't have self-rising flour, combine all-purpose flour with baking powder and salt instead. Remember to not overmix the batter to keep the rolls light and fluffy.

Serving Suggestions

These buttered rolls pair beautifully with soups or salads, making them a great accompaniment to A Fast Salad. Serve them warm with a spread of butter or your favorite jam. They also work well as a side to hearty dishes like pot roast or grilled chicken, enhancing any meal with their delightful flavor.

Storage & Reheating

Store any leftover buttered rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. For longer storage, place them in the refrigerator for up to a week. To reheat, wrap them in foil and warm in a 350°F oven for about 10 minutes, or microwave for 15-20 seconds until heated through.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these rolls ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the dough ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Just remember to bring it to room temperature before baking for the best results. If baked rolls are left, they can be reheated easily, making them a great option for meal prep!

What can I add to the dough for extra flavor?

Consider adding spices like garlic powder or onion powder for a more savory flavor. Additionally, incorporating shredded cheese can give a lovely cheesy texture that complements the buttery rolls.

How do I know when the rolls are done baking?

The rolls are done when they turn golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on them after about 12 minutes, as oven times can vary. A perfectly baked roll will have a light crust and soft interior, making them irresistible!
