Perfectly balanced with the comforting flavors of melted butter and a hint of sweetness, these rolls require no extensive proofing, thanks to a streamlined rising process. With just a handful of pantry staples—like warm water, all-purpose flour, and active dry yeast—you can create fluffy, bakery-style dinner rolls that are perfect for any occasion. Whether you’re hosting a holiday feast or looking for a simple side for weeknight dinners, these versatile yeast rolls are guaranteed to impress.
In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir briefly and let the mixture sit for 5 minutes, or until the yeast is frothy.
Add 3 cups of flour, salt, melted butter, and the egg to the bowl with the yeast mixture. Mix with a spoon or a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes, or use the stand mixer on medium speed for 3 minutes. Add the remaining 1/4 cup flour in small increments if the dough is sticky, but be careful not to overflour.
Grease a baking dish or sheet pan and divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a smooth ball and place them evenly spaced in the prepared dish.
Cover the dish with a clean kitchen towel and place it in a warm area to rise for 15 minutes, or until the rolls have doubled in size.
While the dough is rising, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the rolls for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
Remove the rolls from the oven and brush with additional melted butter if desired. Allow them to cool slightly before serving.
