Dinner Rolls from The Prepared Pantry

These Dinner Rolls from The Prepared Pantry are soft, fluffy and so addicting!

In October 2020, I made a purchase on The Prepared Pantry so that I could try some of their items and show you all my take on the recipes. My full review of each items is on a post dated Feb. 1, ’21 My First Order with The Prepared Pantry. I really do love The Prepared Pantry- it makes baking really easy and quick. My one “complaint” is that the recipes that are included on the back of their baking mixes are for those with bread machines. See as I do not own one (I find it more soothing to do the entire baking process myself), I have had to amend each recipe. Thankfully, I had a little more experience with baking bread before trying these mixes so I was able to quickly adjust instructions and details.

I ordered 2 baking mixes from The Prepared Pantry and decided to make them for Thanksgiving Dinner at my mom’s house. Everyone loved them! To make 2 batches, it obviously took quite some time, but below is my take on 1 batch of rolls.

Sunday Dinner Rolls Bread Mix – $3.69
from:

Directions

• Slowly add the remaining baking mix 1/2 cup at a time

• Once all in well combined, turn mixer up to Medium and knead for 2 minutes
• Turn off, readjust any dough and let sit for 30 seconds to 1 minutes (it needs time to pull itself back together)
• Turn mixer on Med-High for another 2 minutes and knead
• Remove from mixer bowl and form into a ball, you may need knead it a little more on a floured surface
• Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a towel. I have found that the smaller the bowl, the better because it keeps the dough in better shape

• Let sit for 1 hour or until dough has doubled 
• After 1 hour, punch dough down and start shaping the rolls into equal sizes (see Notes for how to make dough equal sizes!)
• Let rise for 30-45 minutes- until puffy and bigger

• Bake at 375 degrees for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown
• Brush melted butter on top
• Sit on rack to cool

Enjoy with soft butter or alone

Notes

In order to get rolls in equal sizes:

• Use a knife or dough scraper divide the 1 large ball of dough into 3 equal pieces
• Divide those 3 equal pieces into 4 pieces each
• Rolls each piece into a ball, use your thumbs to pulls the surface down and pinch it at the bottom of the roll
• Place perfectly shaped dinner roll pinched side down
