Super Quick Rolls
Super Quick Rolls are delightful, fluffy bread rolls that come together in a flash. With a perfect balance of sweetness from sugar and the richness of milk and oil, these rolls are ideal for busy weeknights or family gatherings, pairing beautifully with soups and stews.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix lukewarm water, dry yeast, and sugar until dissolved.
- Add self-rising flour, milk, and Mazola oil.
- Stir until all flour is moist.
- Bake at once in well buttered muffin pans at 475° for about 15 minutes, or until browned.
Tips & Substitutions
For best results, ensure your water is lukewarm, as too hot can kill the yeast. If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining all-purpose flour with baking powder and salt. To add flavor, consider mixing in herbs or garlic powder. The rolls can also be brushed with melted butter or topped with cheese before baking for a delicious finish.
Serving Suggestions
These Super Quick Rolls are perfect as a side with soups or salads, making them a great pairing for hearty dishes like Crispy Chicken With Asparagus Sauce. Serve them warm with butter or jam for breakfast or brunch. They can also be enjoyed alongside a delicious dessert, such as Pina Colada Cake, for a complete meal experience.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. For longer storage, freeze them in a freezer bag for up to three months. To reheat, simply place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes until warmed through, or microwave for 15-20 seconds.

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 tsp of baking powder and 1/2 tsp of salt for every cup of flour used. This will give your rolls the necessary lift and flavor that self-rising flour provides.
What can I do if my dough is too sticky?
If your dough is too sticky, sprinkle a little more self-rising flour until it reaches a manageable consistency. Be careful not to add too much, as this can alter the texture of your rolls. Remember to lightly flour your hands when handling the dough.
How can I tell when the rolls are done baking?
The rolls are done when they are golden brown on top and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. If you're unsure, you can use a toothpick to check the center; it should come out clean. Baking times may vary, so keep an eye on them.
