A plate filled with dinner rolls recipe.

favorite homemade rolls!

Other than the Mashed Potatoes, the recipe we all look forward to most on holidays (especially Thanksgiving) is our mom’s Homemade Dinner Rolls.

No joke – all the grandkids come running for them, and we have yet to find a more yummy or delicious roll recipe than this one (and we are not exaggerating).

We love these dinner rolls especially for holidays, with other sides like Creamed Corn Recipe, Green Bean Casserole Recipe, and Roasted Brussel Sprouts – but love to make them for Sunday Dinners too.

WHY WE LOVE IT:

  • Holiday must-have. These homemade rolls are a perfect side for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or Easter!
  • On-hand ingredients. This recipe uses pantry staples, which means they can be made any time (and my kids are grateful for that!)
  • Simple. Surprisingly, this recipe is easy. We’ve made it fail-proof so even begginers can easily master this roll recipe.
Measuring flour in a cup.

Ingredients

  • PREP TIME: 20 minutes
  • RISE TIME: 2 hours
  • BAKE TIME: 20 minutes
  • 1 tablespoon rapid rise yeast – Even though we activate it in water we always use the rapid rise yeast/instant yeast for these rolls, but active dry yeast works too.
  • ½ teaspoon granulated sugar – this will help the yeast activate.
  • ¼ cup warm water – The ideal temperature is between 105°F and 110°F.
  • 1 cup warm whole milk
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4½-5 cups all-purpose flour – We use all-purpose flour but you can also use bread flour.
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • salted butter (for brushing on tops).

How to make OUr Dinner Rolls Recipe

  1. YEAST. In a small bowl, stir 1 tablespoon yeast with ¼ cup warm water and ½ teaspoon sugar. Let stand until bubbly.
  2. DOUGH. In a large bowl, mix 1 cup warm milk, ½ cup oil, ½ cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt with a wooden spoon.
    • Add 1 cup of flour to the mixture and mix well. Add 2 eggs and mix vigorously until smooth. Add yeast mixture and continue to mix until smooth.
    • Add remaining flour to the yeast mixture 1 cup at a time and continue to mix with a wooden spoon until the dough is combined. The dough should be soft and sticky.
  3. FIRST RISE. Pour the dough into a large bowl (oiling the sides of the bowl can help keep the dough from sticking). Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let rise for a few hours, until it has doubled in size. 
  4. ROLL. Once the dough has doubled in size punch down, and divide in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece out into a 12-inch circle. The dough circles should be about ⅜ inch thick.
  5. SHAPE. Brush dough with melted butter. Cut circles with a pizza cutter into 12 pieces (like a pizza). Roll from the rounded edge to the point, to make a crescent roll. Place into a greased baking pan (we use an 11×16 metal pan and do 3 across and 8 rows down).
  6. SECOND RISE. Cover with a tea towel and let the dough rise, until it doubles about 1-2 hours.
  7. BAKE + ENJOY! Preheat the oven to 375°F.
    • Bake for 16–20 minutes, until lightly golden brown. (Touch rolls to see if they bounce back—if they do not, bake a little longer). Brush with melted salted butter while warm. Serve warm.

Serve these rolls with Homemade Strawberry Jam, Honey Butter or Cinnamon Butter.

PRO TIP: BOUNCE BACK?

Touch rolls to see if they bounce back – if they do not, bake a little longer. Brush with melted butter while warm.

Dinner Rolls Recipe

Our dinner rolls recipe delivers a soft, buttery best-loved recipe, perfect for holidays or any occasion and impossible to resist.
Servings: 24
Prep: 20 minutes
Cook: 20 minutes
Dough rising time: 2 hours
Total: 2 hours 40 minutes

Ingredients 

  • 1 tablespoon rapid rise yeast
  • ½ cup + ½ teaspoon sugar, divided
  • ¼ cup warm water (110-115 degrees F)
  • 1 cup warm milk (110-115 degrees F)
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4½-5 cups all-purpose flour, divided
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • salted butter, melted, for brushing

Instructions 

  • In a small bowl, mix yeast and ½ teaspoon sugar with warm water. Let stand until bubbly.
  • In a large bowl, mix warm milk, oil, ½ sugar, and salt with a wooden spoon.
  • Add 1 cup of flour to the mixture and mix well. Add eggs and mix vigorously until smooth. Add yeast mixture and continue to mix until smooth.
  • Add remaining flour to the yeast mixture 1 cup at a time and continue to mix with a wooden spoon until the dough is combined. The dough should be soft and sticky.
  • Pour the dough into a large bowl, cover with a tea towel, and let rise until it has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Once the dough has doubled in size, punch down and divide it in half. On a floured surface, roll each piece out into a 12-inch circle. The dough circles should be about ⅜ inch thick.
  • Brush both dough circles with melted unsalted butter. Cut each circle with a pizza cutter into 12 pieces (like a pizza). Roll each piece from the rounded edge to the point to make a crescent roll.
  • Place rolls on a greased baking sheet with the pointed tips down (we use an 11×16-inch metal pan and do 3 rows across and 8 rows down).
  • Cover rolls with a tea towel and let rise until they have doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Notes

Make ahead of time. Unbaked rolls can be frozen right after they are formed in Step 7. Place unbaked rolls on a baking sheet and freeze immediately. Once frozen, place in resealable plastic freezer bags, seal and place in the freezer. Take them out a couple hours before baking to let them rise to about double the size, which will take longer since the dough is frozen.
Use a stand mixer. You can mix this dough in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook; just be careful not to overmix the dough because it will make it tougher and not as soft.

Why Didn’t My Rolls Rise?

– Be sure the yeast isn’t expired and that it is activated properly.
– Ensure that the proofing environment is warm and moist and give it enough time.

Should I Knead Dinner Rolls?

Many yeast bread recipes must be kneaded before shaping. However, this dough doesn’t. Because of how sticky the dough is, kneading in a little flour when rolling and shaping it may be required – so it is easier to work with. However, you won’t knead it like other breads. Adding too much flour, and over kneading this recipe can result in a less fluffy, more dense dough. 

Can I Use a Kitchen-Aid Mixer?

Make this recipe in the Kitchen-Aid or stand mixer, with a dough hook attachment. Be careful not to over-mix the dough, because it will make it tougher, and not as soft.

Can I Use a Bread Machine?

How Do I Keep My Rolls Warm?

There are a few ways that you can keep dinner rolls warm. My top choices are to place them in a warm crock pot and another is to use a warm bread basket.

Why do Rolls Need to Rise Twice?

During the first rise, the yeast emits gasses that create air bubbles and the rising dough will produce a chewy, light, and flavorful roll. However, as the dough rises the yeast slows down, thus a second rise is recommended. Punch the dough down, shape it, and give the yeast one more chance to create chewy, flavorful, and fluffy dinner rolls.

How to Freeze Unbaked Rolls?

> Increase the amount of yeast used by 50%. We suggest freezing the rolls right after they are formed. Line them up on a cookie sheet and freeze until solid, then transfer them to a freezer Ziploc. They are best stored between 4-6 weeks but can last up to 3 months.
> To bake: Line the frozen rolls up on a baking sheet, spray a piece of plastic wrap with cooking spray, and place it oil-side down, over the rolls. They will need several hours to thaw and rise to double in size. Remove the plastic before baking.

How to Store Baked Dinner Rolls?

To maximize the shelf life of dinner rolls, place them in a freezer bag, or wrap them in foil. Store in an airtight container on the counter at room temperature for 2-3 days. Baked rolls can also be frozen for up to 3 months.

    So I just made these… delish! I have been baking for decades and I have to say, this is the softest dough💖… the texture is incredible! Next time, I am going to make ones with raspberry jam filling, cinnamon & sugar etc…. Mmmmmm….😍

  2. Nikki M says:

    5 stars
    Great easy bread recipe. Perfect for beginners. The eggs make the dough a bit sweeter without adding any extra sugar. I did only use 2 1/4 t vs the 1T of yeast, but still had proficient rising of the dough.

  3. Donna says:

    These are soooooo awesome. They really aren’t time consuming to put together , just rise time .
    But worth every minute ! I make these at least once a month , sometimes twice.
    Enjoy 😉

  8. Sandy Westover says:

    Making these now. Confused at what the rise time is after they’re rolled. It’s written 1 hour and 3 hours to rise. I watched the video and the video is just showing with no instruction on voice. I’m hoping it’s just the hour rise. I’ll see what happens.
    Thank you.

    We’ve made a lot of recipes from Lil Lina’s site. We love the yeast rolls recipe. I decided to try this one for Thanksgiving this year instead, against my daughter’s warnings of doing a recipe that contained oil instead of butter. Now I know why. The texture is a bit different than what we like in a roll…not bad, just not like when using butter. Also the flavor just isn’t fabulous due to the oil and not butter. The ease of making this recipe, though, is great! It’s almost fail proof. Everything rose well and baked lovely. We will just stick with the recipes with butter 🙁

    Tried this recipe for the first time this year and it was so so so yummy! Everyone loved it, even the hubs as he doesn’t like rolls lol!!

  30. Julia says:

    can you make the day before and then bake the next day?

    1. Lil'Luna Team says:

      Yes you can. Depending on what time of day you are making them, you may want to freeze them right after shaping. Otherwise, definitely keep them in the fridge overnight so they don’t over proof. If I were making them in the morning or even early afternoon and then baking the next evening, I’d follow the instructions through forming the rolls into the crescent shape. Then I’d pop them in the freezer. Then the next day, take them out a couple hours early to let them rise to about double the size (which will take longer obviously since the dough is frozen).

      1. Cher says:

        Can you cut these out with a biscuit cutter? If so how thick would you roll the dough. I love these

      2. Lil'Luna Team says:

        You could certainly give it a try. I’d probably roll it out about 1 inch thick (depends on the size of your biscuit cutter). If it is about 2 inches, you could cut them out and roll them into balls. Cover with a towel and let them rise until about double in size. We have another great roll recipe that shapes the rolls this way, rather than the crescent shape. https://lilluna.com/dinner-rolls-recipe/

      Thank you!! So glad you love the recipe!

  56. Jennifer says:

    How early can these be made in advance of Thanksgiving if freezing?

    1. Lil'Luna Team says:

      You could make them anytime before Thanksgiving at this point! And you can freeze before baking or you after you bake. If before, we suggest freezing the rolls right after they are formed. Then, take them out a couple hours early to let them rise to about double the size (which will take longer obviously since the dough is frozen). If freezing after baking, let them cool and then store in a freezer bag. Set them out on the counter for a few hours to defrost before eating. You can also warm them in the oven once they have thawed as well.

    LOVE these rolls! They were so easy, light and delicious! I made them for Thanksgiving and followed the directions for freezing them since I made them ahead. I took them out of the freezer the night before and left them in the fridge overnight. The thawing/rising went well the next day. My problem was that I froze them on a pan with wax paper and read you shouldn’t bake with wax paper. So I moved them after they’d done the rise and they became distorted.

    I loved this recipe! My family loved it! My neighbors loved it!
    I added my touch. I filled some with white cheese and thyme, some with cream cheese and then brushed the surface with sugar syrup while still warm, and filled some with zaa’tar mix and olive oil.
    Thank you for a great recipe!

  88. Teresa says:

    I’m starting to make these and realize I bought instant yeast packets. Since the yeast doesn’t need prodded with water and sugar, should those ingredients be added anyway? Also, the packets have less than 1T yeast. Should I measure it to 1T?

  89. Wendy says:

    Giving it ago tonite. I’ll let ya know

    These are amazing! Ive made them several times. How can they be made a day ahead? Would i put the dough in the fridge in a ball after step 4, but after the first rise? Or after they are formed before the second rise?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I personally haven’t made them, the day before. I have made them days ahead & this is what I do. We suggest freezing the rolls right after they are formed. Then, take them out a couple hours early to let them rise to about double the size (which will take longer obviously since the dough is frozen).

    I made these for the first time today and they turned out awesome! My husband told me they were awful and not to eat them and he would take care of them all he liked them that much! I have been trying different biscuits recipes for the past 6 months and have gotten pretty good with making them and am now on to dinner rolls for the holidays. The rolls turned out just like your picture but not as uniformed in size. They have a great taste and are light and fluffy.

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Yay!! That makes me so happy! Thank you so much for letting me know that!

  92. Stacy says:

    Thanks for this delicious recipe! I’ve made it a couple of times now. These rolls are amazing as-is, but today I decided to make half of them into a dessert, and oh my!! After I rolled out the second half of the batch, I spread it with butter, cinnamon, brown sugar, and chopped pecans. Then I rolled and baked them as directed. After they cooled, I drizzled the top with a simple powdered sugar glaze. Wow, they were so good!! I will definitely make them again!

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Mmm..that sounds yum!! I will have to try 🙂 Thanks so much!

    I have made these rolls for a couple of years now, and i cannot find a better recipe! i always have success with the dough coming together and rising well, for some of the best tasting rolls i have had. thank you for sharing such a wonderful recipe, i will continue to make these for a long time (and reviews from family and friends on these rolls are raving!).

    also, i am not sure if this will be helpful for others – i actually bought a jar of the red star active dry yeast (not the rapid rise), and measured a tbs of that to mix with the sugar and warm water. the yeast mixture bubbled up perfectly for me.

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I am so glad you like this recipe! They are our go-to!! Thank you!

      1. Dhanisha says:

        Just about to try the recipe how long should I keep the dough for rising at each stage?

      2. Kristyn Merkley says:

        They rise for 2-3 hours each time. Just keep checking them..they need to be doubled in size. Hope that helps! Enjoy!!

    Love these roLls! This recipe will replace the recipe i have been using for the last 30 years!

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Wow! That’s a nice compliment! Thank you so much!!

  120. Cindy says:

    I coulD not get the forst step of yeast mixture to ever get bubbly as shown after two attempts. I tried it with Fleischmann’s RapidRIse instant Fadt acting yeast packs. Am i using the wrong kind of Rapidrise yeEast? Or am i suppose to do something else to the yeadt to get it “bubbly?”

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Did you use warm water?

  121. KRISTEN says:

    I know you’ve had about a million questions about the yeast, I have read all info and RESPONSES and in one area you say, rapid rise yeast and another you say dry active yeast. Looking at these at the store they are two different yeasts. One called rapid rise says you do not need to dissolve and just add to the dry ingredients. The dry active says you do dissolve. Question 2, as sold in packets, both say they are 2.25 teaspoons per packet to be dissolved in 1/4 cup water. Your recipe calls for 1 TB so I should not buy a packet I assume.? Sorry for repeated questions, just wanting to get it right, doing a trial run today since I’m in charge of tgiving rolls!

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      This recipe is using the dry active yeast, which I like to use & I buy it in bigger containers, not the packets, since I use it a lot. Hope that helps! Good luck!

Next time i will bake them at 350 instead because i goT them out after 13 min and they were buRnt on one end of the pan and all of them were darker on the bottom than i PREFERRED. I baked a few extras in a smaller pan on 350 and they were perfect. I will definitely make these again.

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

    I made these rolls for my family this past saturday and they were a total hit. I only made 1/2 of tHe recipe because there were only three adults eating. Well the three of us ate 10 rolls, they were so good right out of tHe oven. My son likes his with a little more butter and he ate so many that he didn’t have much room left for the main course. This was my first time making them and i will be making A doUble batch for ThanksGiving. These will definately be my go to rolls from here on out. TRy them, you won’t be abLe to at just one.

      Yay!! I am so glad you tried them!! Now, you’ll be making them all the time 🙂 Thanks so much!

    You don’t need to knead these rolls at all?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      No kneading, there is mixing & punching down the dough, but no kneading. They are seriously the best!! Hope you try them!

    These are the most de rolls ’ve ever made. I had extra dough so i made apple turno & even a pizza Crust they were all delicious. I can’t wait to make them again.

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Perfect use of the leftovers! Thank you so much!

    2. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Perfect use of the leftover dough! Thank you so much!

  182. Fatema motala says:

    Mus try looking delicious

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Thank you!! I hope you will 🙂

  183. carmen says:

    Could I use rapid yeast in the pocket? If so,how many pocket? The pocket say, 2 1/4 teaspoon. Because I would like to try it.

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      All you need is 1 Tablespoon, so, you’ll have to use 2, but measure 3/4 teaspoons out of the second one. Hope that helps 🙂

  184. Mary says:

    You list of ingredients is missing things. Like the correct amount of SUGAR..24 1/2 sugar????
    Butter how much and for what?

    You say to use WARM milk but where does it say to WARM it? Is the milk to be scalded? Then let to cool down?

    Bake at what temp and for how long?

    Really need your help. Oh caps are on your site not because I chose to use them.

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      The recipe card says 1/2 teaspoon of sugar & 1/2 cup sugar for two different steps. And, you could melt 1/4 cup of butter. It’s just for brushing on top of the rolls, so you may not need that much or you may need a little more, just depending on how much butter you want. You can warm the milk before you start. It doesn’t need to be scolding, just warm. The temp on the card says 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Hope that helps!

  185. Adriana says:

    thanks

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      You are so welcome! Glad to share 🙂

  186. Liliana Negrea says:

    Thank you for your fantastic recipes! One question regarding these rolls: no need to knead at all?

  187. Lesley says:

    Do you have to let rise 2 hrs ?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I haven’t tried less, but if they look ready before that, they should be ok. Rising all depends on where you live, climate, humidity, those kinds of things, so it might not take you 2 hours.

  188. Franklin McDaniel says:

    is the flour just regular flour not self rising?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      All-purpose 🙂

  189. Zahra says:

    Can these rolls be mixed in Bread machine?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I am sure they could 🙂 I personally haven’t tried, though it should be fine 🙂

  195. Troy Robertson says:

    Awesome

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

    Thank you, Kristyn! Looking forward to try more recipes and ideas.

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Thank you so much!! I look forward to hearing about the ones you try 🙂

  197. Bernice Mosteller says:

    Are these dinner rolls made with all purpose flour, bread flour or what kind, also do you use regular yeast or rapid rise?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I used regular all-purpose flour & the regular yeast 🙂 Enjoy!!

  198. Myrna says:

    What is the best flour to use for the dinner roll recipe?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I just use regular all-purpose flour 🙂

  199. Amy says:

    So I’m confused. The prep time says 2 hours for dough rising. So I made them and then it says a “couple of hours” in the bowl then Cut them and let them rise again for a “couple of hours”. If it does take more than an hour each time I think the prep time should be adjusted to match. Thanks.

  200. Brenda Stelman says:

    What type of flour do you use?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Just regular all purpose flour 🙂

      1. Brenda Stelman says:

        It also calls for a wooden spoon and I just threw my last one out is that really significant for this recipe

      2. Kristyn Merkley says:

        Not at all, it’s just more sturdy 🙂 You can use whatever you have on hand. Hope you like them!

  203. Sylvia says:

    Can you give me the measurements for half half the amount please.
    Thank you

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      You just need to divide everything by 2 to give you half the amounts 🙂

  204. shawnna griffin says:

    hey girl- these rolls look amazing!

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Thanks so much Shawnna!!

  205. Linda says:

    what type of flour are you using, All purpose or Self rising?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I used all purpose 🙂 Hope you like them as much as we do!

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Woohoo!! You made my day! Thank you so much for letting me know 🙂

  207. Morna Hespelein says:

    What kind of flour do you use for Heavenly rolls? I have bread flour,self rising, and all purpose.

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I use all purpose flour 🙂 These are so good! Let me know what you think 🙂

    I love your pastries. Tried making the bread rolls and home made bread. It came out excellently well. Very soft and yummy. You are the best Kristen! Keep up your good work..

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Awe, thank you so much! So glad they turned out 🙂

      1. Evelin says:

        You are a wonderful cooker and the best photographer… congratulations!!!

      2. Kristyn Merkley says:

        Thanks so much!! You are so nice!

  209. Elvira says:

    My rolls were okay. They were dry in the inside. Any tips on how to fix this issue? How much butter should I spread onto the dough?

    1. Elvira says:

      I also added 4 cups of flour. Could this have been the issue? Next time i will try 3 cups.

    2. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I am sorry they were. I would start with the 3 cups of flour. And, it’s just enough butter to coat the tops. I like to dip my pastry brush in the butter & just brush it on. I’m not quite sure what else would cause that. Too much flour can make them more dense & also humidity. Hope they turn out the second time 🙂

  210. Keith E Hatcher says:

    I started making these too late in the day. Can I put the dough in the fridge overnight and resume tomorrow without ruining it? Keith

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I personally haven’t tried that, so I’m not sure how that might change anything. Did they turn out?

  211. Patty says:

    These rolls look amazing…..they don’t seem to be too difficult to make???? I am going to make them soon! Thanks for the recipe ❤️

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      They are not difficult at all 🙂 You are so welcome! Hope you like them!

  213. PaoPao says:

    These look amazingly delicious.
    My family always has pigs in a blanket for Christmas Eve and I’m in charge of them this year. I want to avoid using the store-bought crescent rolls that are full of awful ingredients.
    Do you think these rolls would work to make pigs in a blanket?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I haven’t tried with these, but that would be great! ENJOY!

    Definitely the best rolls I’ve been on a search for roll recipes!

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Yay!! We think so, too! Thanks so much!

  215. Jenn says:

    These rolls look great. I’ve decided to try and make them today. This will be my first time making anything bread wise by hand. Currently waiting for the dough to rise, fingers crossed it works out. I wanted to try and make these for Christmas this year. So this will be my test batch. My only concern is when I had everything mixed to transfer to another bowl ( for it to rise) the dough seemed stiffer than what it looked liked in the video. Does that mean I did something wrong? Or over mixed?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I hope not. They should be ok! How did they turn out?

      1. Jenn says:

  218. Stace says:

    If I wanted to freeze heavenly dough recipe would I freeze it after rolls are formed but before they rise?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I haven’t tried freezing them. I’m still perfecting recipes with yeast, so honestly I’m not sure when would be best. I would think before they rise. Good luck!

  219. Perla says:

    How warm does the water need to be and how long to let it sit to bubble?

    Hey there,
    I tried and it turned out to be awesome everyone loved it ! But I made them at night for breakfast they we’re really good at that time, but dry and hard in the morning. Can you please tell me any tip on how to store them so they don’t lose their softness? Thanks.

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I’m glad you tried them 🙂 I like to store mine in a ziploc baggie. I hope that helps!

      2. Kristyn Merkley says:

        Yay! I love hearing that! I agree…they can be for any occasion! Thank you so much!

  223. Kay S says:

    Can the recipe for your mom’s famous dinner rolls be successfully doubled?

  224. Natalie says:

    These look so fluffy and moist. yum!

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      They are seriously the best! Hope you’ll try them soon! I’d love to know what you think!

  225. Melissa R Kimbrough says:

    If I don’t have tea towels can I cover with plastic wrap?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      You could use a kitchen towel. I know my mom hasn’t had luck with the plastic wrap. Hope that helps 🙂

  226. Brenna says:

    I want to make these rolls today so I don’t have to worry about them tomorrow (thanksgiving). Do you think these will be just as yummy tomorrow if I make them today?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Yes 🙂 Though, they are the best fresh, but they’ll still be good!

      Perfect! I’m telling ya, there are never any leftovers! Thank you for letting me know!

  228. Hazel Johnson says:

    Homemade rolls are great, love them all.

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

  229. Allison Baseman says:

    Can the dough be refrigerated overnight and baked in the morning?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I personally haven’t tried. I know my mom hasn’t had luck with that. But, maybe you know tricks? I’m sorry, I wish I was more help!

  230. Lori Andrews says:

    5 stars
    These rolls were amazing! Easy to make and just melt in your mouth delicious! The only thing I did different than the original recipe was use bread flour in place of the regular flour as that’s what I had on hand!

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      SO, glad you liked them! They are the best! Glad the bread flour worked out! Thank you for sharing!

  231. Amy says:

    I’ve made bread just a few times. Can I start these tomorrow. Let rise then roll out and let them sit overnight then bake thanksgiving morning?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I personally haven’t tried that. I haven’t had the best luck when I try it differently than the recipe, but they could? I’m sorry, I wish I knew for sure. I hope they work out for you 🙂

  232. Jamie says:

      I got 60 rolls out of one batch!

      1. Joni pilmaier says:

        Oh, that was making them round though instead of crescent shaped. Easier that way!

      2. Kristyn Merkley says:

        Round is just fine 🙂 Thank you for sharing!!

    2. Kristyn Merkley says:

      It could make up to 4 dozen, depending on how big you roll them. I hope you like them, as much as our family does!

  233. Sandra McLaws says:

    How many hours before mealtime do you start these rolls so they are ready for dinner? Thx.

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I like to start them in the morning. As they need to rise for a few hours, twice. You could start them no later than 10:00 & have them warm & fresh.

  234. sharon says:

    can u make rolls from it

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      What kind of rolls? I’ve only stuck to these kind, with this recipe, so possibly 🙂

  235. Sarah says:

    These look amazing! How long do you actually let them rise?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      They are the best!! Just depending on the humidity, weather, temp…but usually it’s around 3 hours. Just keep checking..when they have doubled in size, they are done.

  236. Marie says:

    What is TB yeast? is that tablespoon?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      Yes 🙂 ENJOY!

  237. Jordan says:

    I’m curious to know if this is all done by hand or with a mixer or if it matters lol, and if you can give me a roundabout number for the “few hours” it has to sit. I really want to make them and have them turn out perfect

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      We like to do it by hand around here, but you can do it however you like 🙂 And, a few hours, meaning 3 hours or until it’s doubled in size. Hope that helps & hope you like these as much as we do!

  238. Sue says:

    Can we freeze these? If so, how? Before baking or after?

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      I haven’t personally tried. I like to make mine when I know we’ll be eating them or bringing them somewhere. But, I would think maybe before you bake them.

  239. Linda says:

    All breads and other recipes looks yummy. I wish i could bake them perfectly!

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      You can do it! Thanks so much!

  240. Kathleen says:

    I made using my bread machine on dough cycle as i usually make dough. I found using my glass Pyrex pizza pan as a template was also helpful.

    I will add a touch more sweetener for next batch as the boys here like then a bit sweeter but am so happy learned how to make the cresent shape Happy holiday season

  247. Kathleen says:

    i make most with a bread machine does that make a difference? thanks

    1. Kristyn Merkley says:

      It shouldn’t 🙂 Hope you like them!

    How much is 3-4 cups of flour?

  252. Rita Pressley says:

    Do you use self rising flour or plain

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Just plain all-purpose flour 🙂 Hope you like them!!! They are seriously the best!

  253. Court says:

    So I’d like to try this as a loaf of bread instead of rolls. How much would I need to change the ingredients? Double them? Just roll the dough in to a loaf instead of sectioning off into rolls?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      I haven’t tried. I wish I knew. I’m not an expert with bread yet or at least changing recipes to make them into loaves, so I wouldn’t want to tell you the wrong thing. I’m sorry. I’ll have to play around with the recipe & find out!

  254. bill says:

    sorry again thanks for the quick reply but are the cup sizes US and will they freeze

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Yes & yes 🙂

  255. bill says:

    Looks Delicious my wife dont like to much bread and would be wonderful for her. Is it bread flour you use ?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      It really is so good! I just used all purpose flour 🙂 Hope she’ll like them!

  256. Cindy A Jenkins says:

    Kristyn, my daughter told me about your Basic Homemade Bread recipe and I will be giving it a try this week. I come from a family of 12 kids and my Mom baked 4 loaves of bread 7 days a week for many years. I am also a lover of hot homemade bread and I have taught my daughters how to do it too. Here is another thought for you, I take a zucchini and peel it and then remove the seeds if it is a big one, and then I run it through the blender to liquefy it and I add it in place of half of the liquid I use in the bread recipe and it make good fluffy white bread too. You don’t taste it in the bread and the bread come out as white as regular white bread. Try it sometime and see what you think. The only difference I find is that it takes a little less flour than the recipe calls for.

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Thank you for sharing that! I will have to try! Let me know what you think of these rolls 🙂 Thank you so much!

  257. Sonny Lorica Padua says:

    What does 1 TB yeast means? What type of yeast to use and flour?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      That’s awesome!! I can see why..they are the best! Thanks for sharing!

  265. Stephanie says:

    Has anyone tried this recipe with gluten free flour?

  266. emeliecanoy says:

  267. Karen says:

    Can you double the recipe or should i make 2 batches?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      You could double it. I hope you like them, as much as we do! Thank you!

  268. Mindy says:

    Can these be made up to step #8, then put in the refrigerator over night and baked the next day?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      I have always done it in the same day. I wouldn’t know if that would change the outcome. I’m sorry. You could always give it a try??

  269. Joan says:

    These look like they would be Great to make little Pigs in a Blanket !!! Just cook up your little smokey breakfast links or the little smoked sausages for parties. Makes me hungry just thinking about what other goodies to roll up in them !!! And, how much Better this dough would be over that stuff in a tube !
    ???? Yum !!!
    Drool !!!

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Haha!! Yes, those would be great! Let me know if you try them..Thank you!

        I tried this recipe today but I used one pack of instant yeast and just mixed all the ingredients together (Less work). The rolls were wonderful. I had to restrain myself from excessive indulgence.

      2. Lil' Luna says:

        I am so glad to hear that!! Thanks so much for sharing 🙂

      3. coreena says:

        Do u still add the sugar with the instant yeast?

    Hello!! can I use almond milk or it has to be cow milk? I can’t wait to give them a try! Thank you in advance!

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      I haven’t tried using almond milk. It might change the flavor a little, but you could always try. I’d love to know how it comes out. Thanks!

  271. Jo says:

    Hi there, I really love the recipe and would like to try it, but what type of flour does the recipe require? It states two different measurements for flour. Kindly clarify. Best wishes, Jo.

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      It’s all purpose flour and it’s different measurements for different steps in the instructions. Hope that helps. Good luck!

  272. Sachi says:

    Hello Sis!
    Thank you for the recipe! I tried this last Saturday and I am extremely sad that it turned out so bad. My dough never rose even if I waited for so many hours for the first part and the second part when they are in the pan. Also, the yeast didn’t bubble as expected based on your first instruction. I baked them and they turned out hard and didnt rise as well but the insides were uncooked.Quite sad that it didn’t turn out well but your bread looks soo amazing!

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Oh, I am so sorry it didn’t turn out. I’m trying to think of why it wouldn’t have. I’m glad you gave it a try though 🙂 Hope you’ll try again!

    2. Joni pilmaier says:

      It takes awhile for the yeast to bubble. It doesn’t happen right away. That’s probably why they didn’t rise or cook well. Also, it took mine awhile to rise and I finally put it in an oven on warm and that helped. Sorry it didn’t work but try again and wait until your yeast bubbles up. Mine almost bubbled out of the cup it was in but that wasn’t until I had made the dough so it took awhile.

      1. Kristyn Merkley says:

        Yes, good point Joni. If you didn’t see bubbles & started the process, you may have started too soon. Yeast can be tricky! I’ve had to start the part over before, if it never bubbled.

    3. PaoPao says:

      These look amazingly delicious.
      My family always has pigs in a blanket for Christmas Eve and I’m in charge of them this year. I want to avoid using the store-bought crescent rolls that are full of awful ingredients.
      Do you think these rolls would work to make pigs in a blanket?

    4. Betsy says:

      If The dough did not risE, and you baked them anyway. Yes, they will be hard and dense. I’d say that your yeast was old or not good. I’ve bought yeast at the store before and it was old (Always check the dates, also if the yeast doesn’t get bubbling after you put the sugar and warm water in it, then your yeast is dead) Hope this helps.

  273. Smitth says:

    Ummm…. did you double the recipe? Instructions say to cut into 12 pie shaped pieces but you put 24 in the pan.

    I made the heavenly rolls recipe yesterday and they were unbelievable! My question is can they be frozen and then thawed and heated and still taste as good? I want to make them for Easter and want to make them a few days early….

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Thank you for trying them! We never have any left to freeze, but they should. Let me know what you think, if you do. Thank you!

  275. Marie says:

    Can i ask if its a plain flour or a self raising? Thanks

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      It is just regular all-purpose flour. Thanks so much for stopping by!!

    What kind of yeast?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      I always use instant 🙂 Hope that helps and hope you enjoy the rolls 🙂 Thank you!

  279. Disha says:

    Hi, it looks really yum. Plan to make them right away. Just a quick question, do we add 3 or 4 cups of flour ? Thanks a lot for sharing the recipe ????

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Thank you! I always start with 3, then I may need to add a little more as I go. It just depends on where you live, the humidity, etc. If they are way to sticky, then you’ll need to add more. Hope that helps 🙂 Good luck!

      Not a stupid question at all! I just used all-purpose flour. Good luck!! Thank you 🙂

  287. Evelyn Malo says:

    Please help , will this work with almond flower?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

    I’ve been trying out roll recipes for the past few months in search of the perfect recipe, and these rolls are the BEST!!! I recently made these rolls for a couple of pot luck dinners and many people commented how good they were. A couple of people even told me they were the best rolls they had in their life (and they were older folks.)

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Yay!!! Aren’t they the best?! Thank you so much for sharing and for giving the recipe a try! 🙂

  290. Mags in Rosarito says:

    Think I’ll try using this recipe to make some garlic cheese rolls by adding garlic, herbs & shredded cheese after I brush on the butter before I cut & roll them

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      That sounds wonderful!! Thanks for sharing and I hope you like them!

  291. Lisa says:

    Could you put dice bacon anf cheese then roll them then cook will it work ?. Ty

    1. Mags in Rosarito says:

    I’ve been making these rolls (this recipe) for more than a year now. They are always a big hit. I made 8 dozen for Thanksgiving and froze them. I have used A-P and high-gluten flours but use only high gluten now, the difference is very noticeable. The rolls are great if formed and immediately frozen. I take them out a couple hours early to let them proof/rise to about double in size. I bake them only at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes. This is a very soft , rich dough and is best mixed by hand. An electric mixer or bread maker can be used but it really doesn’t need to be worked that much. Once all 3 cups of flour are incorporated (no flour is visible) it can be put in a bowl, covered and left to rise.
    I’m curious how others make the 12 triangles consistent. I found a 18″x24″ plastic at a kitchen store, made to roll out pie dough, etc. it has several concentric circles, one is 12″ in diameter. A You-tube video for dividing a circle into 12 triangles, helped me lay it out on the plastic. Using a Sharpie I made 12 dots on the circle. Now I roll out the dough, brush on the butter, and use a pizza cutter to make all 12 pieces identical. Sorry to be long-winded, but I’ve had a LOT of fun with it.

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Thanks so much for sharing that!! I hope it helps some interested in making this recipe!! I’m so glad they’re a hit 🙂

    2. sallyz says:

      Jason, did you only use a total of 3 cups of flour or are you implying that “once the additional 3 cups are incorporated,” after the first cup is stirred with the wet ingredients?

  294. Karen says:

    Hi, I have a question. Can I make the dough the night before and just bake in the morning? At what step do I stop and resume the next day? Thank you so much. I’d like to make these for Thanksgiving.

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      I personally haven’t tried, so I wish I knew for sure. If I were to freeze them, I’d probably freeze them once you have formed them into the crescent rolls, before you bake them. Hope that helps! Good luck!

  295. Kara says:

    Hi! I can not wait to try these! Do you use regular yeast or rapid/quick rise? I was wondering if I I need to adapt the recipe if I use rapid rise yeast? Thanks so much!

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      I always use the rapid/quick rise yeast. You could use what you like or what you’re used to, that’s just what I like. Hope that helps!! Thanks!

      2. Lil' Luna says:

        Yay!! Thank you so much for telling me!

  296. Lin says:

    Can the heavenly roll be refrigerated then last rise before baking?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      I honestly haven’t done that, so I’m not sure. I make them and go from start to finish. Has anyone done that??

  297. Stacee says:

    can you freeze the dough and bake later.

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      I haven’t tried, but I bet you could? Most things freeze well and bake well, so I’d love to know if you try it!

  298. Nikki says:

    Hello, this is going to be my attempt ever at making bread just wondering what type of flour I use, is it self raising it all purpose plain flour?

  299. Sewbear says:

    Could this recipe be made using the “dough” cycle on a bread machine? I’ve had pretty good success with other bread, bun recipes with making the dough in my machine and wondering if this one would turn out good results.

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      I haven’t tried it using a bread machine. I know my mom does the old fashioned way-her hands:) You could give it a try in there…I’d love to know how they turn out!

      1. Sewbear says:

        5 stars
        Couldn’t wait to try some – so did, they turned out fantastic and can see these will be hard to leave alone!! I used yeast for bread machine plus bread machine flour. Mine takes all the “wet” ingredients first (I combined the warm milk, oil, sugar, eggs first and put in – also the salt since I’ve been told don’t let the salt and yeast “touch”!) I used 4c. flour and the yeast but skipped adding the 1st 1/4c. water with sugar, as you don’t have to dissolve the yeast when using the bread machine and this dough is wet enough without it. I use my dough cycle which is 1 1/2 hrs for my machine. The dough turned out great and easy to work with. After shaping rolls I let rise covered in my “barely warmed” oven for 1 1/2 hrs. then baked for 15 min in my oven. We love them! This dough would probably work well “shaped” for other things too…will have to experiment!

      2. Lil' Luna says:

        That is so great to know!! Thank you so much for sharing that information! They are very hard to resist!! Let the experimenting begin:)

      3. Cathy says:

        can i make these with bread machine? My rolls came out hard on bottom how do i correct? Thanks

  304. Barbara says:

    I have never made rolls in my life, l have made a lot of other things. I am going to try these this weekend. My husband loves roll so I am doing this of him. Wish me luck!!! They sound great and by all the comments from the people who have made them, they must to be good.

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      How did they turn out?

  305. Peggy says:

    The rolls turned out looking really great. They were soft and fluffy. However, it tasted very much like alcohol or perhaps yeasty. I felt that it was almost beer like in taste. Could it be that the bread was over-proofed? Thanks!

    1. Peggy says:

      Do you also happen to know if it is safe to consume?

      1. Peggy says:

        okay, I am obviously not the baker, but I did try it again. This time, I made sure not to let it proof for too long. The taste was great, but I was not able to bake the rolls evenly. Is this an issue with spacing? I did not have as large a pan. Thank you for putting up with all of my elementary questions!

      2. Lil' Luna says:

        Hi Peggy – no worries at all. I’m sorry you had any issues. It does depend on the pan, how many you put in there and how big you made your rolls. Do they look pretty similar to the pictures in this post?

  306. Kim says:

    5 stars
    Loved these. Yeast stuff doesn’t always work out for me, but this sure did! Super easy, but next time I’ll start making them more around 10 or 11 am to go with our supper. couldn’t believe how much they are like a crescent roll, only better!
    I also didn’t have that big pan, so I put 8 rolls in a 8×8 pan and the rest in a 9×13. Still perfect!

  307. Leigh says:

    Could you clarify the 3-4 cups of flour? Is that 3 or 4 whole cups or 3/4 of a cup?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      3 to 4 cups. 😉

  308. Mary says:

    what does TB mean for the yeast?

    1. PaoPao says:

    These are delicious!!! I am making them right right now. I am bringing them to Thanksgiving tomorrow. I was just wondering what type of butter do you use? Unsalted or Salted? I think i used the Country Crock salted butter last time. These are Amazing though!! A new recipe to be added to my cookbook of recipes. Thank you!

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      SO glad you like it. I usually use unsalted with baking, but salted butter still works as well. Happy Thanksgiving!!

  319. Leina says:

    Hi! This looks delicious! I can’t wait to try these for Thanksgiving! Quick question, #4 and #8 it says to cover with a tea towel and let raise for a few hours. Soooo, you do this process twice?? Just want to double check. Thanks!

  320. Elizabeth says:

    Quick Questions: when you say 3-4 cups flour, do you mean 3 to 4 cups of flour or 3/4 three fourths of a cup of flour…..and how much time in total do you need to make these, including rising times?

  324. Michelle says:

    These directions don’t make a lot of sense. It says to divide the dough in two, but only make one circle to cut 12 pieces?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      You do that twice… the directions state you put 24 in a pan (3 across and 8 down). 🙂

  325. Courtney says:

    I am just wondering how you get that perfect crescent shape?!?! Can you post a tutorial? I would love that. My turned out SO good but don’t have that perfect shape like i’d like. Thanks!

      Next time I’m with my mom I’ll have to take video – she’s the expert on these rolls. 😉

    2. Jamie Rampley says:

      Once you roll it out into a circle you use a pizza cutter to cut into triangles and then roll the into crescents just like you would if you bought a can of cresent rolls

      1 Tablespoon of Yeast. 🙂

      1. Jovana says:

        Fresh or dry yeast? Thanks

      2. Lil' Luna says:

        It’s the active dry yeast 🙂

      3. Jim Bertucci says:

        Must be your Touch. I have never had my yeast rise like that. I still assume if the yeast is fresh by the date then the water temp must be so important. I’ll keep trying. Happy Easter

      4. Kristyn Merkley says:

        Yes, temp is important. It needs to be warm 🙂 Keep trying, you’ll get it!

    4. Evelin says:

      Table soon

  327. Scheryl says:

    I am making these as I type, well they are awaiting the rise time. I used the kitchen aide mixer so I am hoping they turn out as I read through the comments no one has said if the mixer worked or not. I also used the regular yeast not the rapid yeast as the recipe did not say one way or the other, but I assume if you have to let it rise for a while it would be the regular yeast, so that is what I used. I also only used 3 cups of all purpose flour as again the recipe did not state which type of flour to use and this does make a difference, and since I did not see any baking power/soda I again assumed this to be all purpose flour. I will try and post the outcome when they are finished but that wont be until hours later from now. I do hope they turn out well..they sure smell good so far..anything Yeast has got to be awesome! Thanks for sharing this with all of us!

      UPDATE: The rolls turned out wonderful! I used the kitchen aide mixer and wow oh wow these really are heavenly. But I must say…I feel so stuffed like a turkey right now I feel miserable. Hubby said I for sure have to keep on making these…Thanks for the recipe. One tip, depending on your oven you might need to back down that temp to 350 so as to not burn the bottoms. I guess this depends on where you live and how good of an oven you have temp wise that is. 🙂 Enjoy folks, I know I did!

      1. Lil' Luna says:

        YAY… love that you made them in the mixer and that they were heavenly. They’re definitely our favorite homedmade rolls. 🙂

        Hi Kristyn,

        I made them tonight and they were so good!!! My 3 boys and husband loved it. I made 24 rolls last night with sweet potato soup and only 5 are left for breakfast today 🙁 They were looking for more.
        I can’t wait to try your other recipes!

        Sorry but ” regular flour”? What does that mean. Self raising it plain?

      3. Lil' Luna says:

        Plain 🙂

  330. Stephanie says:

    I made these tonight, for thanksgiving tomorrow. I’m super excited to try them!

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Let me know how they turn out! Wish I had the time to make them for today – they are SO yummy! 😀

  331. Janel says:

    These look so good! What type of yeast do you use?

    I made the last week to test out the recipe before thanksgiving. They were awesome! I have a question though. Do you think I could make these and before the oven step, put them in the fridge overnight and then bake in the morning???

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Hi Julie! To be honest, we’ve never done them that way so I’m not for certain. I would look up a similar recipe that does call for refrigerating them and then do that part as that recipe suggests if that makes sense. Wish I could be more help!

    2. Sandii says:

      I made my mixed my batch the night before at bedtime, got up in the morning punched down the dough and rolled them up and let them rise someplace warm. They didn’t take long at all to rise the second time. I remember my Grandmother used to make some similar to this and she would make hers the night before all they way but she also popped them right in the oven in the morning, that was why I waited I needed them piping hot later in the day.

      1. Lil' Luna says:

        How did they turn out?

    3. Tiffany says:

      Yes! I’d lOve to know the answer to this, too. Thanks!

      1. Kristyn Merkley says:

        I personally haven’t tried. I am not sure if that would change anything. I need to experiment more!

  333. Amy Ward says:

    I’m bringing rolls for thanksgiving this year and would love to try this recipe instead
    of bringing store bought rolls. I live out-of-state and I’m driving home for the holiday
    so I was wondering how Long it took for the dough to rise? I know stupid question, but
    I wanted to make Sure I’d have enough time to make them once I got there.

  334. Sandra says:

    Being a sucker for anything that claims to be “heavenly” (or in the case of beauty products, promise to be age-defying), I’m making these rolls today. I will post them onto my baking board on Pinterest.

        They turned out amazing! So addictive… Had a hard time not consuming a dozen by myself. Take a peek on Pinterest at bakergirl204 under My Baking. Forgive the picture, my photography skills are nowhere near as good as yours.

      2. Lil' Luna says:

        Just checked your pin!! LOVE it. SO glad they turned out. Wishing I had some right about now!!

  335. Summer says:

    Wow! How can you not make these rolls after reading the description and seeing the pictures?

  336. Marilyn says:

    Can I use my Kitchen Aid for mixing or is it better to just use a spoon?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      We’ve never tried this in the Kitchen-Aid and only know it works perfectly when following the directions exactly. If you decide to give it a try with the mixer, let me know and I’ll be sure to make a not of it so others know. 🙂

    2. Summer says:

      I have made countless dinner rolls in my mixer. I will be trying these in my Kitchen-Aid too! I’m sure it will be fine 🙂

      1. Lil' Luna says:

        Keep me posted on how they work out! 😀

        I used my kitchenaid sTand mixer to make this recipe! They were perfect! I’m making a second batch now because my son ate all the leftovers from thanksgiving and my husband was looking for the leftover rOlls this morning!

      3. Kristyn Merkley says:

        That’s the best! I am glad you all liked them! Thank you so much!

  337. Crystal says:

    These look amazing!!! I have added this recipe to mine. Can’t wait to try them out! Thanks for sharing your mom’s recipe!!!

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Let me know how they go if you try them out! XO

  338. JEROME TAYLOR says:

    THE POTATOES LOOKS YUMMY, BUT WHY ARE THEY ‘FUNERAL POTATOES’?

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      I think it’s because it was a common casserole to bring to funerals. ??

    2. Katherine Cook says:

      Because we (latter-day saints) make them for a funeral. Fast and easy to make.

  339. Amy Huntley says:

    So I guess I need to give this a try! xo

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Um, yes. 😉

  340. Ela says:

    Did you mean that we just stir the ingredients using a big spoon and no kneading, please clarify. I’d like to try this on Thanksgiving. Thank you.

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Yes, just stir with the spoon like the directions said. No kneading required. 😉

  341. Jackie says:

    No kneading? I love no-kneading! Makes them even more heavenly. 😉 I’m the designated holiday roll person, so these will come in handy. Thanks.

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      No kneading bread recipes are definitely the best. 🙂

  342. Sharon says:

    Oh my word, these rolls certainly do look heavenly. And so do all of the side dishes.

    1. Lil' Luna says:

      Thanks, Sharon!! I promise if you try the rolls you’ll love them – SO SO SO good!! 😀

  343. Gina says:

    Oh my stars- bread is such a weakness for me. Those look so tasty!

  344. Kathe says:

    Oh my goodness these look so good! I am pinning so that I can give them a try!

    1. Piper says:

      Can these be made into dinner rolls instead of crescent rolls?

      1. LilLunaTeam says:

        They sure can! Let me know how they turn out. I’d love to hear!

    yes, that does make more sense, I was picturing cutting out circles and then rolling them into a triangle shape, seemed like a lot of work. thanks for the clarification Janeg!!!

  347. Lil'Luna Team says:

    It honestly depends on the temperature in your kitchen. If it is warmer, the dough will rise faster. I’d say about an hour and a half for the first rise and then another hour for the second rise. But there again, it may be more or less depending on the temperature in your kitchen. When the dough has risen to about double in size, it’s ready to move on to the next step.
