Instructions:
-
Activate Yeast:
- In a bowl, combine the active dry yeast and 2 tablespoons of water. Allow it to stand for about 5 minutes, giving the yeast time to activate.
-
Prepare the Batter:
- Once the yeast is activated, add it to a large bowl along with the sugar, egg, self-rising flour, milk, and remaining water. Stir the mixture until it becomes smooth and well combined.
-
Refrigerate:
- Cover the bowl tightly and place it in the refrigerator. Let the batter chill for at least 4 hours, or you can leave it in there for up to 4 days. This step allows the flavors to meld and develop, resulting in more flavorful rolls.
-
Preheat the Oven:
- When you’re ready to bake the rolls, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your oven is at the right temperature for baking.
-
Prepare Muffin Pans:
- Stir the batter once more to ensure it’s well mixed. Then, spoon the batter into greased muffin pans, filling each cup about 3/4 full. This will give the rolls enough space to rise and expand while baking.
-
Bake Until Golden:
- Place the filled muffin pans into the preheated oven. Bake the rolls for approximately 25 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown color and are cooked through. The aroma filling your kitchen will be irresistible!
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. These Spoon Rolls are best enjoyed warm, with a pat of butter melting into their soft, fluffy interior.
-
Note:
- If you don’t have self-rising flour on hand, you can easily substitute it with regular flour. Just remember to add 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt for each cup of regular flour used. For this recipe, you’ll need to add 6 teaspoons of baking powder and 2 teaspoons of salt if using regular flour.
These Spoon Rolls are sure to become a favorite at your dinner table. Their simplicity, combined with their fluffy texture and delicious flavor, makes them the perfect accompaniment to any meal. Enjoy!
