Quick Hot Rolls
Soft, warm hot rolls with a light, fluffy texture and a hint of sweetness, perfect for breakfast or as a side dish. Made with simple ingredients, these quick-to-make rolls are ideal for busy mornings and pair well with butter or jam, appealing to both families and casual gatherings.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix the self-rising flour, sugar, salad dressing, and milk until well combined.
- Divide the batter into a greased muffin pan.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 450°F for 10 minutes until golden brown.
Tips & Substitutions
For lighter rolls, consider using buttermilk instead of regular milk for added tang and moisture. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can substitute it with all-purpose flour plus 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and a pinch of salt. Make sure to mix the ingredients just until combined to avoid tough rolls. For additional flavor, try adding herbs or cheese to the batter. These rolls are similar to those found in Grandma Ferry'S Dumplings For Snitz And Knepp.
Serving Suggestions
These quick hot rolls are perfect for breakfast or as a side with any meal. They pair beautifully with soups, stews, or a hearty salad. For a delightful brunch, serve them alongside Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits and a fruit salad. You can also enjoy them with butter or jam for a sweet treat. Consider serving them warm for the best texture and flavor.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover hot rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To keep them fresh longer, you can refrigerate them for up to a week. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes, or until warmed through. You can also microwave them for 15-20 seconds, but this may make them slightly less fluffy.
