” />Are you ready do start salivating over these rolls? Go ahead. Start drooling. These sweet and rich rolls are straight from heaven and will be a perfect pair for your holiday meal. They were adapted from The Pioneer Woman’s Original Dinner Rolls (the ones baked in muffin tins).
Ingredients
- 4 Cups Milk
- 1 Cup Sugar
- 1 Cup Vegetable Oil
- 9 Cups Flour
- 4 1/2 Tsp Active Dry Yeast (2 packages)
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 3/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 2 Tablespoons Salt (I like mine to be slightly heaping, bring on the salt)
Instructions
- Scald the milk, sugar and oil in a large stock pot.
- Turn off the heat and let it cool until the outside of the pot is warm but cool enough to touch.
- Add the yeast and 4 Cups of flour. Mix together with a wooden spoon.
- Add 4 more cups.
- Cover with a towel and let it sit for 40 minutes or so until it has at least doubled in size.
- Add 1 more cup of flour, the baking soda, powder and salt.
- Finally mix well with a wooden spoon.
- Now, flour your counter and divide the dough into 3 sections. Roll each section out like a pizza (1/4-1/2 inch thick) Slice with a pizza cutter into 16 pizza triangles.
- Roll each little triangle from the outside to the inside creating a crescent roll.
- Bake at 400º for 18-20 minutes.
Each batch gives 16 rolls, making 48 rolls per batch! This is a perfect way to make rolls for a group.
Some more tips for baking rolls for a large group include:
Storing the dough in the fridge for a couple days if you want to make a fresh batch each day. This dough is best for two days. Allow the dough to come to room temp before baking by setting them out for 2 hours before bake time.
Or if you are prepping for a lot of people, bake and freeze the rolls themselves. You can reheat them by thawing, covering with foil on a cookie sheet and baking for 5-10 minutes on 350º. Test them to see how warm you want them.
I hope this recipe will free up your mixer for the big day {Thanksgiving}. I love that you can just make them in ONE-POT, on the stove.
Enjoy!
