Soft, fluffy, and irresistibly golden, "My Favorite Sub Hoagie Rolls" are the ultimate homemade bread for sandwiches and subs. Crafted with pantry staples like all-purpose flour, sugar, and instant yeast, these rolls come together effortlessly with just 15 minutes of prep time. The dough is kneaded to perfection for a smooth, elastic texture, then allowed to rise twice for that signature airy, bakery-style consistency. Brushed with a touch of milk for a delicate crust, these rolls bake to light golden perfection in under 20 minutes. Perfectly sized for hearty subs or deli-inspired creations, these hoagie rolls are a versatile and satisfying complement to any filling. Freshly baked and free of preservatives, they elevate every bite, making them a must-try for bread lovers and sandwich enthusiasts alike!
In a large mixing bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook), combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and instant yeast.
Add the warm water and melted butter to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes by hand or 5-7 minutes in the stand mixer on medium speed, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and allow it to rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
After the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Divide the dough into 8 equal portions.
Shape each portion into an oblong roll, roughly 6-8 inches long, and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving enough space between each roll for expansion.
Cover the rolls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise again for 30-45 minutes, or until they have doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C). If desired, brush the rolls with milk for a soft and golden crust.
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are lightly golden brown.
Remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack before using them to make your favorite sandwiches or subs.
