How to Make Grandma's Easy Potato Rolls

  1. Combine all ingredients in a bread machine and select the dough cycle.
  2. **If mixing by hand:** In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a lightly oiled bowl, turning once to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 90 minutes, or until almost doubled. (Note: The dough may not exactly double.)
  3. Gently turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
  4. Divide the dough into 16 equal pieces.
  5. Shape each piece into a smooth ball.
  6. Place the rolls in two 9-inch round baking pans (8 rolls per pan).
  7. Cover the pans loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for 60-75 minutes, or until doubled in bulk.
  8. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown.
  10. Brush with melted butter immediately after removing from oven.
  11. Let cool slightly in the pans before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
