How to Make Awesome Yeast Rolls

  1. In a large mixing bowl (or stand mixer), combine 1 cup warm water (105-115°F) and 1/2 cup vegetable oil. Mix until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons of active dry yeast, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 cup milk powder. Add to the wet ingredients.
  3. Gradually add 10-12 cups all-purpose flour, one cup at a time, mixing with a wooden spoon or dough hook until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled large bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  5. Punch down the dough to release the air. Gently roll the dough into a 1/2 inch thickness. Use a 2-inch cookie cutter or knife to cut out individual rolls.
  6. Place the rolls onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving some space between them.
  7. Cover the baking sheets with plastic wrap and let the rolls rise for another 20-30 minutes.
  8. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  10. Let the rolls cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
