Make Your Rolls Pop with Flavor

Have you nailed the basic dinner roll recipe with no yeast? Well, it’s time to jazz things up a bit. Let me spill some of my tried-and-tested secrets to make those rolls scream, “Yum!”

Get That Golden Glow

If you want rolls that look as good as they taste, check this out:

• Egg Wash Magic: Have you ever wondered how to get that glossy, bakery-style sheen? Brush some egg wash on the rolls before baking. Whip up a wash using one egg mixed with a tablespoon of water, and you’re golden!
• Butter or Olive Oil Goodness: After the rolls emerge hot from the oven, treat them to a buttery shower or an olive oil glaze. This sneaky trick amplifies the flavour and makes them shimmer like a dream.
• Temperature & Timing: Preheat the oven to 375°F and set the timer for 15-20 minutes. Peek-a-boo in the last stretch to prevent these beauties from turning into biscuits.

Spice Things Up a Little

What makes no-yeast rolls awesome? They’re a canvas for your wildest culinary ideas!

• Garlic and Herb Delight: Do you love garlic bread? Toss in some garlic and parsley, or sprinkle your rolls with garlic powder and herbs before baking.
• Cheese Fanatic: Fancy some cheesy goodness? Stir in a handful of cheddar, mozzarella, or parmesan into the dough. Go the extra mile by scattering cheese on top before popping it into the oven.
• Sweeten the Deal: Swap plain sugar for the brown stuff, and after they’re baked, drizzle with honey or maple syrup. Voilà, an instant dessert!
• Vegan Wonderland: Almond milk and coconut oil are your friends here. Pair them with vegan cheese or a dollop of basil pesto to keep it plant-based and delicious.
• Pesto Punch: Add basil pesto to the dough, and your rolls will ooze with Italian vibes. Perfect for pasta nights!

Flavor	What You Need
Garlic & Herb	Clove of minced garlic, parsley, roughly a tablespoon
Cheese	A cup of shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
Sweet	1/4 cup brown sugar, a drizzle of honey for glaze
Vegan	Use almond milk, coconut oil, vegan mozzarella
Pesto	Scoop in a couple tablespoons of basil pesto

Get creative and find that roll flavour that makes you go, “Mmm, that’s the one!” Happy baking!

Serving and Storing

Enjoying Fresh Rolls

Ah, the joy of biting into a warm, no-yeast dinner roll! Here’s how I like to savour these fluffy delights:

• Fresh from the oven: Nothing beats tearing into a steamy roll with butter that oozes into every nook and cranny—delicious!
• On the side: These rolls aren’t picky eaters. They’re the perfect companion for almost any meal. Try pairing them with our mushroom and avocado dishes or something new, like AIP-friendly dinners.
• Stuff them: When snacky, I slice them open and shove in some cheese, ham, or roasted veggies. Quick, easy munchies right there.
• Dunk away: They’re awesome for soup-dipping, too. Watching them soak up all that soupy goodness is so satisfying.

These no-yeast rolls jazz up any meal with their homemade charm.

Storage Tips

Want to keep those dinner rolls fresh and tasty? Here’s my game plan:

At Room Temperature

• Airtight Container: Pop them in an airtight container, and they’ll stay soft for up to two days. Bye-bye, dry bread!

Freezing

• Freezing: Got leftovers? Freeze them for up to 3 months—no problem! Here’s the scoop: Chill out. Make sure they’re completely cool before freezing.
• Wrap ‘Em: Each roll gets its little plastic wrap or foil blanket. Because who likes freezer burn, right?
• Bag ‘Em: Load them into a resealable freezer bag, and remember to squeeze out the air before locking it up.
• Mark the Date: Scribble the date on the bag so you know when you tossed them in there.

Are you craving those frozen rolls later? Let them thaw at room temperature. To make them feel fresh again, heat them in a 300°F oven for about 10 minutes.
