Fluffy Bread Machine Dinner Rolls

Description:

Prepare yourself for a culinary treat with these fluffy, irresistible bread machine dinner rolls that are perfect for any occasion! This recipe is incredibly convenient, as it allows you to make the dough a day ahead and refrigerate it for up to twenty-four hours. When you’re ready, simply shape and bake for warm, freshly baked rolls that will make your kitchen smell like heaven. Easy to prepare and absolutely delicious, these rolls are sure to be a hit at your next meal. 🍞✨

Ingredients:

  • ¾ cup milk (preferably whole milk for richness)
  • 6 tablespoons butter (unsalted, softened to room temperature)
  • 1 large egg (beaten)
  • 3 cups bread flour (for the perfect texture)
  • ¼ cup sugar (to enhance the flavor)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to balance the sweetness)
  • 1½ teaspoons active dry yeast (for a perfect rise)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Dough:
    Begin by placing all the ingredients into your bread machine in the order specified by the manufacturer. Generally, this means adding the liquid ingredients first, followed by the dry ingredients, and then the yeast on top. This ensures that the yeast stays fresh until it’s time to mix.

  2. Set the Machine:
    Select the dough cycle on your bread machine. This cycle will mix, knead, and allow the dough to rise, taking approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on your machine. If you’re making the dough ahead of time, you can skip the rising part and move on to refrigerating it.

  3. Refrigerate (Optional):
    If you plan to make the rolls the day before, once the dough cycle is complete, you can either shape the dough into rolls immediately or wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours. If refrigerated, allow the dough to sit at room temperature for about an hour before shaping to make it easier to handle.

  4. Shape the Rolls:
    If you didn’t refrigerate the dough, proceed to shape it right after the dough cycle ends. Divide the dough into 24 equal parts and gently roll each piece into a smooth ball using your hands. If you refrigerated the dough, first allow it to come to room temperature, then divide and shape it as described.

  5. Prepare for Baking:
    Place the shaped dough balls onto a lightly greased baking sheet, arranging them so they are close but not touching. Cover the rolls with a damp cloth and let them rise for about 20 minutes, or until they have doubled in size. This second rise is crucial for achieving a light, fluffy texture.

  6. Bake the Rolls:
    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and have a lovely, baked aroma wafting through your kitchen. Keep an eye on them towards the end of baking to ensure they don’t overbrown.

  7. Finish with Butter:
    As soon as the rolls come out of the oven, brush the tops with melted butter for a glossy finish and extra flavor. This step not only adds a delicious buttery taste but also helps keep the rolls soft and moist.

  8. Serve and Enjoy:
    Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. They’re best enjoyed warm but can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days. Perfect for any meal, these rolls are sure to impress family and friends alike!
