How to Make Puffy Potato Rolls

  1. Combine all ingredients in your bread machine pan in the order specified by your machine's manual.
  2. Select the dough cycle on your bread machine.
  3. Once the dough cycle is complete, carefully remove the dough from the bread machine.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently punch it down to release air.
  5. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions (approximately 2.5 ounces each).
  6. Shape each portion into a smooth ball.
  7. Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with butter or cooking spray.
  8. Arrange the rolls in the prepared pan, leaving some space between each roll for rising.
  9. Cover the pan loosely with a clean kitchen towel and let the rolls rise in a warm place (around 75-80°F) for 40-45 minutes, or until nearly doubled in size.
  10. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  11. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 200°F (93°C).
  12. Remove from the oven and immediately brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter for extra richness and shine.
  13. Let cool slightly before serving warm.
