Texas Roadhouse Rolls

Ok.  I lied.  These aren't Texas Roadhouse Rolls.  They're my great-great grandma's rolls. But they totally rival Texas Roadhouse Rolls. THEY ARE SO GOOD. This recipe is so versatile. We use it for rolls, bread, cinnamon rolls, pizza dough blah blah. It works for everything!  Takes five minutes to throw in your bread maker, 2 hours of bread maker magic, 10 minutes to roll up and 15 minutes to cook. That really equals 15 minutes of you needing to be in the kitchen!  Who doesn't love that right?!

I'm having serious issues with blogger so sorry if the layout is a little... off!

Ingredients:
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1/3 sugar
  • 1 egg (break up yolk)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 4 cups flour
  • 1 Tbs yeast

Directions:
  • Add all the ingredients- in order- to your bread maker and set to dough setting!
  • Roll into balls in a muffin tin
  • Bake at 370 for 10-ish minutes or until golden brown
Add 1 1/2 cups milk to bread maker



Then add 1/4 cup melted butter

Next, add in your 1/3 cup sugar

Break up the yolk of one egg and add it to bread maker

Add 1 tsp salt

Add 4 cups flour
And finally, add 1 Tbs yeast
Now that you've added all your ingredients, set your bread maker settings to DOUGH

And when it's finished with its bread maker magic, it should look like this:


TIME TO ROLL AND BAKE!

This is how we roll ours.

You've got to spread some flour out on your table and just put the dough you get from your bread maker right on top of it.  

Now take a chunk of dough and place your thumbs in the middle of the chunk- like so

Now fold it in and repeat





Eventually it'll start looking like a nice round little ball.  If you've noticed, roll dough doesn't roll like cookie dough!


Forgive the photographer!

Place 3 balls in one muffin cup

Put them in the oven and when they come out they should be so delicious!  These ones look a little funny because my cute nieces rolled the last batch and I forgot to take pictures of the first batch- of course!

ENJOY!

  5. oh abby, there is a much easier, faster way to make those little dough balls. break the dough into 4 big balls, squeeze the dough through your thumb and pointer finger (like you touched the tips togather to make a circle)and pinch off. you'll fly through those balls and leave a lot more fluffiness to them. yum, i love fresh rolls!!

  6. I made these tonight for my family for Sunday dinner, they definitely were a hit. I wish i had brushed some butter on them when they were fresh out of the oven.
    Nonetheless, everyone should try them!

  9. 6L's, I'm totally gonna have to try that! Seems like it'd be, DUH! haha but this whole rolling technique is something we've just done in our family for so long I never thought about doing it 'easier'! ha ha! Chelsey, I'm so glad you loved them! Yeah butter always helps. Sometimes even a little more salt!!

  10. So Good! This took all the guess work out of it. I used half whole wheat flour. Mostly so I could tell myself I could eat more of them. Good thing, my 3 year old and I ate them up! Now I'm ready to try more with my bread machine. Thanks!

    1. Just regular white flour. I'm interested to see what whole wheat flour would do though!
