Quick Mayonnaise Dinner Rolls
These quick mayonnaise dinner rolls are soft, fluffy, and golden-brown, perfect for a savory snack or side dish, suitable for busy weeknights or casual gatherings.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix self-rising flour, mayonnaise, and milk until well combined.
- Divide the dough evenly and place into a greased muffin pan.
- Bake at 400°F (200°C) until the rolls are golden brown, about 15 minutes.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter texture, sift the self-rising flour before mixing. You can substitute the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or sour cream for a tangy flavor. If you don't have self-rising flour, combine all-purpose flour with baking powder and salt in a 2:1:1 ratio. Experiment with adding herbs or cheese to the dough for extra flavor, as in American recipes.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these quick dinner rolls warm alongside soups, salads, or as a base for sliders. They pair beautifully with Ellen Aldridge'S Pumpkin Bread for a comforting meal. Consider adding a spread like butter or jam to enhance their flavor. They also make a delightful accompaniment to Spinach Dip In 'Bread Basket'.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a week. To reheat, wrap the rolls in foil and warm them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, ensuring they stay soft.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use regular flour instead of self-rising flour?
Yes, you can use all-purpose flour instead of self-rising flour. Just add 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt for every cup of flour to achieve similar results.
How can I make these rolls sweeter?
To make the rolls sweeter, you can add 1-2 tablespoons of sugar to the dough. If you're looking for a sweeter flavor profile, consider serving them with a honey butter spread.
Can I freeze the dinner rolls?
Absolutely! You can freeze these rolls after baking. Allow them to cool completely, then wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw them at room temperature and reheat before serving.
