Ingredients

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 cup milk
  • 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/4 teaspoon sugar

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients, stirring until batter is smooth.
  2. Pour the batter into a greased 12-cup muffin tin.
  3. Bake at 425°F for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown.

Tips & Substitutions

For best results, use room temperature milk and mayonnaise to help the batter combine smoothly. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining all-purpose flour with baking powder and salt. Consider adding herbs or cheese for added flavor. These rolls are versatile and can be modified to suit your taste, much like the 'Jewels' in Fruitcake Cookies.

Serving Suggestions

These Quick Cheaters Rolls are delightful served warm as a side to soups or salads. They pair beautifully with Swiss Asparagus Casserole for a comforting meal. You can also enjoy them with butter and jam for a sweet treat, or serve them alongside a hearty main dish for a satisfying dinner.

Storage & Reheating

Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If you want to keep them longer, place them in the refrigerator for up to a week. To reheat, simply pop them in a 350°F oven for about 5-10 minutes until warmed through and slightly crisp.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use regular flour instead of self-rising flour?

Yes, you can substitute regular all-purpose flour by adding 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and a pinch of salt for every cup of flour used. This will help your rolls rise properly while maintaining their soft texture.

What can I add to the batter for extra flavor?

You can mix in shredded cheese, chopped herbs, or even spices like garlic powder or paprika to enhance the flavor of your rolls. Experimenting with different add-ins can lead to unique variations that complement a variety of dishes.

Can I freeze these rolls for later use?

Absolutely! Once the rolls have cooled completely, place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight and reheat in the oven for the best texture.
