Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400° F (200° C). Grease muffin tins or line with paper liners.
- In a mixing bowl, measure 2 cups of self-rising flour and add 1 tablespoon of sugar, 3 tablespoons of salad dressing, and 1 cup of milk.
- Stir until just combined and batter is smooth.
- Drop batter into the prepared muffin tins by tablespoonfuls, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown.
- Remove from oven, let cool slightly, then serve warm.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter texture, consider replacing half of the self-rising flour with whole wheat flour. If you don't have salad dressing on hand, a mix of mayonnaise and vinegar can serve as a good substitute. For added flavor, mix in some herbs or spices like garlic powder or dried oregano. Be sure not to overmix the batter to keep the rolls fluffy.
Serving Suggestions
These Salad Dressing Rolls make a great side for soups or salads, and they pair beautifully with Grandma Helen'S Orange Delight Cookies for a delightful meal. Try serving them with a dollop of butter or your favorite jam for added flavor. They are also excellent as a breakfast item alongside fresh fruit.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. For longer storage, you can freeze them; wrap each roll tightly in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer bag. To reheat, simply pop them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes until warmed through.
