Yeast Rolls for Two

Homemade yeast rolls made completely by hand (no electric mixer or bread machine). This small batch makes nine rolls. That's just right for two if you like them as much as we do.
Ingredients:
2 cups AP flour
1 Tablespoon powder milk
3 teaspoons yeast
2-3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 Tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 spoon sour cream (optional)
½ cup water + 3 Tablespoons water

Thanks Ken, love the recipes for one or two, please keep posting. You have a fantastic way of teaching, easy and clear directions. Lots of love and light for you and your wife!

[@KenClick]

Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate you watching. 🙂

[@reginaldsingletary2557]

Mr. Ken. Ive just finished baking the rolls. It's 4:00 in the AM. I've just came off the road from Cleveland. Couldn't sleep, So I tried this recipe.They came out GREAT. Tks for sharing.😁

[@KenClick]

Ha! Late night baking... sounds good. I'm glad they turned out well for you! 🙂👍

[@sallydulaney1652]

I've never baked with yeast before and made these! They turned out perfect and delicious! So full of flavor and light and fluffy! I used 2% milk and 1 package rapid rise instant yeast as substitutions. I had to add a little more flour. I also used an egg wash before baking instead of brushing with oil. I felt like I didn't knead the dough enough but it worked out just fine. I didn't use the oven light method either because I live in South Florida, I just set the dough outside in the 80 degree heat. Thanks so much! I'm ready to bake anything now!

[@KenClick]

Wonderful! I’m glad they turned out well for you...🙂

[@monserrat9936]

I can’t believe you let them rise outside. That’s awesome! Wish I was in Florida! I’m in Texas and the weather is cold then hot. I wouldn’t be able to do that.

[@Erob1727]

I ran across your KZbin channel just recently. Since that I have made these rolls on several occasions. I never knew yeast rolls were so easy to make. I use my stand mixer for about 6 minutes to knead the dough and I use a mini loaf pan that holds eight and they always come out amazing. Thanks for the content and I will be following you from now on. God bless.

Hi Ken: Thanks for your simple & fun recipes, especially for the biscuits & pan corn bread (still trying to get to no stick even at lowest heat, but came out tasting good-can't do your flip in pan). I tried all the biscuit ones (got my brother doing biscuits now-did some today-he's hooked). The yeast rolls recipe: can't find powder milk, what can I use if have only 2% or whole milk or do I leave it out? Also, the pan you use, didn't see you grease it with anything. I don't have that type of glass-like pan, what can I use & do I grease/butter it to proof dough first? Thanks
