Bread is my one major weaknesses. I could probably sustain on fresh bread and cheese for the rest of my life. Like that is a surprise! So these amazing quick dinner rolls are a blessing for those times when I have a real craving for some bread.
I make these often with great success except for the shape. Since the dough is a very wet one and the proofing time is not much, shaping the dough well is a near impossibility. I am sure it will happen some day. Till then I have to make do with sad photos of a great bread. The amoebic shape doesn’t have too much impact on the taste but I do wish I get the perfect shape for these quick dinner rolls to make a good blog photo. Fingers crossed for next time.
Key pointers for a delicious quick dinner roll
- I would recommend not to try this recipe with whole wheat flour because it hardly has any proofing time and the rise may not be good with whole wheat
- Use warm water which aids in quickening the yeast action. Warm means warm to touch but not hot.
- It will be very tempting to add more flour to this dough and make it manageable. I urge you not to do that. It will adversely impact the softness of these quick dinner rolls

I am not a big fan of breads but have enjoyed few breads that I have baked at home. This bread is indeed quick. I love breads that do not require too much proofing time. These rolls have turned out good though you are not very happy with the shape.
