I’ve lost track of how many times I have made these rolls in the last few months. Let’s just say it’s been a lot.
And everytime I’ve made them everyone has asked “Is this recipe on the blog?” I have been promising and promising it would be so now it is.
I found this recipe over at my friend Laura’s blog – Real Mom Kitchen.
Believe it or not these rolls only take 30 minutes to make. Start to finish. Really! And they are a yeast roll. The other thing I love about this recipe is that it makes a dozen good size rolls. You can make them smaller and make two dozen if you’d like. But with our reduced size family we don’t need two dozen rolls, we don’t really need one dozen either so I know a few nice teenage boys that I like to share them with.
You mix the yeast, sugar, oil and water together and let it rest for 15 minutes. Then you mix up the dough and make 12 balls and let them rest for 10 minutes.
And then in just ten minutes they look like this.
And then after baking for another 10 minutes they look like this!
And they taste as good as a roll that took two hours to make!
Of course the best way to eat a fresh, warm roll right out of the oven is with lots of honey butter!
There you have it – quick, easy and delicious! I promise!
Be sure and check out the Herb and Cheese Version I created too – it’s so good!.
30 Minute Rolls
1 C plus 2 Tbsp warm water
1/3 C oil
2 Tbsp yeast
1/4 C sugar
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 egg
3 1/2 C bread flour (seems to work better but all purpose flour will also work)
Heat oven to 400 degrees.
In your mixer bowl combine the water, oil, yeast and sugar and allow it to rest for 15 minutes. Using your dough hook, mix in the salt, egg and flour. Knead with hook until will incorporated and dough is soft and smooth. (Just a few minutes)
Form dough into 12 balls and then place in a greased 9 x 13 pan and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Bake for 10 minutes at 400 degrees or until golden brown.

DELIGHTED to find your recipe!
Can packets of yeast (Rapid Rise or Regular) be used?
How much?
(PS – I don’t know if it makes a difference; I will be kneading them by hand.)
Kat M,
I use the yeast packets and knead by hand. I use two packs of yeast…they seem to have about 1T per pack.
The first time I made them it turned out great. The second time the yeast didn’t take (I don’t think my water was warm enough, it has to be HOT). This time they turned out great again!
Honestly I get about 14 rolls when I do the size posted in the tutorial. Hope this helps

This is the second time I’ve commented
. I just wanted to let you know the first time I made these I used all purpose flour and they were awesome. We froze the leftovers and they didn’t stay left over long. This time, my husband said show me how to make that yeast bread. I want to make pigs in blankets! So that’s what we did. From start to finish in about 45 minutes. We used tiny turkey sausages and just rolled the dough around them. It was fun and they taste delicious! I did pick up some bread flour and that made the texture much smoother. He liked the egg in the first round, so we left it for this one. Thank you so much for posting this recipe! DH said he was going to have to be careful, this one will make him gain weight, LOL!
I’m excited to try your recipe! I have packets of Red Star Platinum yeast and was wondering how much to use? These packets don’t say how much is in them, but I know that regular yeast packets contain 2 1/4 tsp. Since your recipe calls for 2 Tbls… that would mean using almost 3 packets of yeast, which seems excessive for 12 rolls. I’ve never baked with anything other than the packets. Can you help enlighten me? Thanks!
What a great quick and easy dinner roll recipe. The rolls were tasty and the inside was very soft and fluffy. I was concerned they might be to tough because I needed to add an extra 1/2 cup of flour to make the dough workable. This recipe is defiantly a keeper.
I pinned this on pinterest a while back and finally got around to making them. Followed your directions exactly and everyone loved them! Thank you so much! As a mom with 3 kids under the age of 5, doing homemade bread/rolls are tedious for me and I never have enough time, someone’s always crying it seems. ha! I love homemade rolls and we never have them, usually resorting to loaf bread and butter, boring!! I could not believe how wonderful they were with such little work. I am forever grateful! Thank you thank you!
I am so glad you enjoyed it!! Thanks for coming back to let me know – so appreciate it!!
Just made these for dinner, and THEY ARE DELICIOUS! I can not believe in 30 minutes they turned out so well. I even used All Purpose Flour since I didn’t have Bread Flour. I can’t wait to try it with Bread Flour if you say it helps. Wonderful recipe! So glad I found it!
Yeah! So glad you enjoyed them. So fun to have something so delicious in only 30 minutes!
I always put my pan on a heating pad to rise. Maybe I will try that with these for the ten minute rest and see what happens. Maybe they will rise even more.
Totally love this idea – can’t wait to try it.
What a great idea!
Made these 30 min rolls and they are amazing, I omitted the egg and they still came out wonderful..Thanks for posting this recipe! went great with homemade vegetable beef soup on a cold rainy night.
Good to know they work well without the egg. Thanks so much for letting me know. So glad you enjoyed them!!
Great recipe! We used this recipe to make garlic knots. Super fast compared to other yeast dough recipes, yet still delicious! Thank you for sharing the recipe!
I would like to taste this rolls, but I would like to know if C is for cup. Than water and oil is the same quantity?
I’m from Italy and my oven goes maximum at 250° is this temperature oK?
Thanks and come to visit my blog
Mrs.D. recently posted..Alunni e DSA
Yes C is for cup. Also is the 250 Celsius or Farenheit? Our oven temperature is Farenheit
delicious! i’ve made them several times and they’re perfect. btw…if you knead them for about 10 minutes before you let them rise, the texture is so much better!
So glad they were a success and thanks for the tip on kneading.
Can these be made even though I don’t have a stand alone mixer? I just have a regular hand held mixer with beaters.
If you don’t have a stand alone mixer I would do it all by hand. I am afraid the dough will be too heavy/stiff for your hand held mixer.
I made these tonight but the dough was really sticky. I added an extra 1/2 cup bread flour and dough was still too sticky to roll into balls. Any suggestions?
Just add enough flour until the dough is manageable. Your weather, humidity etc. can effect things.
How many packets of yeast equals 2 Tbsp yeast? Thanks!
Deborah – Two packets is about 2 Tbsp.
Thanks so much for this recipe! I love making homemade rolls but don’t always have time. These were a big hit!
These look delicious. I was wondering what kind of oil was used for these rolls. I’m not sure if it really matters, but was curious to know if one is better than another. Thank you!
I usually use vegetable or canola. Canola more frequently.
I make them with Olive oil, and it works great!
These are AMAZING!!! Made them several times now. Was wondering if the dough could be frozen? If so, at what stage and would you thaw them before baking or just put them straight into the oven? I want to take them on a retreat and it would be nice to have the dough made up ahead of time.
Thanks!
Laura
Laura, I would definitely thaw them before baking. Freeze them before they rise and then let them thaw and rise before baking.
Do you have this recipe in grams/ml? I want to make this recipe but I’m struggling with converting the cups to grams.
Sorry I don’t. I bet there is a website that will convert it for you.
My buns turned out really heavy, why is that?
Try letting them rise a bit more next time and see if that helps.
I made these yesterday and these were awesome. They are quick and easy. I used 2 packages of yeast, and all purpose flour made 12 rolls and they turned out great. This is my new go to roll recipe.
So glad you enjoyed them. Be careful because you just might find yourself making them all the time!!!
Hi-
I made these today, exact to your instructions, and they were bland and dense. I was quite disappointed. I will not be making them, according to this recipe alone, again. The recipe should have more salt and sugar to enhance the flavor. I do, however, enjoy your blog and look forward to future posts.
Best wishes.
I wanted to make your rolls but wasn’t sure if I should use rapid rise yeast or active dry. Does it matter??
Thanks!!
I use regular active dry but you could also use rapid rise. either will work.
Omg I can’t believe how awesome and easy this is! I made a stew and wanted some fresh bread. Found this and I’m so glad I did! Thank you!
So glad you enjoyed it! They can become quite addicting because they are so easy to make.
I love these rolls and they are so easy when you want fresh bread with dinner. I used the 2Tbsp as recommended instead of the 2.5tsp for a packet of yeast and am amazed at the size of my rolls after they have baked! I get 20 3×4 baked rolls from this reciepe (I place them in my 10×15 glass pan). For a family of six these rolls go far and are delicious! Thank you for posting.
Oh, and I used Olive Oil in place of the vegetable oil
Just tried these…thye turned out very heavy ??? had to cook about 18 mins for them to b done….any suggestions?
240 ml or cc equals one cup.
Ever tried making the dough in a bread machine?
I have not made it in a bread machine.
I made this today love them I use haft whole wheat for a healthy .. Bread ,, yummy
Hi – Do you have a whole wheat version of these rolls? Thanks!
I don’t but I think I might try half white/half wheat first and see of that works and then give all whole wheat a try! Let me know if you try it.
I have made these at least a dozen times in the last 2 months. I have tried all white whole wheat, and half WW. The all WW ones turned out too dense, but the ones that were only half my family didn’t even know. I LOVE these rolls! They are perfect right out of the oven brushed with a little buter and topped with some salt from my salt grater.
Help! I made these rolls and they tasted ok BUT they were heavy and didnt rise or spread and i had to add 5 minutes to baking time. What did I do wrong? I could play baseball with these babies!
If they didn’t rise it may have been the temperature of your water – it might have been too hot and killed the yeast or not warm enough to activate the yeast.
I have made these rolls so many times now, I almost have the recipe memorized lol. That’s how much my family love them. I had to make 2 batches tonight and I made one with bread flour and one with ap flour both turned out delicious! Thanks so so much for sharing this amazing recipe.
you know it’s a good one when you’ve got it memorized! Love it. So glad your family enjoys the recipe so much.
Has anyone tried these in the dough cycle of the bread machine?
I haven’t tried it. Don’t have a bread machine but I have to think it would work.
OK, here’s what I did. I mixed it in the bread machine but when I saw the dough cycle was an hour and a half I thought that was too long for the recipe. I took the dough out when it was smooth which was probably about 10 minutes. It was still easier than getting my big, heavy Kitchenaid with the dough hook out. Made a few rolls and let them rest about 30 minutes before baking. They were delish. The rest of the dough I made into small balls, put on a cookie sheet and am freezing. I have a yummy sweet roll recipe which calls for a package for frozen yeast rolls so I am experimenting to see if this works. When they are frozen I will put them in a ziplock bag and try them later in the recipe.
Thanks so much for sharing how you did it in the bread machine!
Thank you so much for this recipe! My father would make these for us when I was a kid and we would eat the whole pan while watching TV. I have tried several recipes and never could get it right. These turned out AMAZING!! I topped them with warm butter and honey ♥
So glad you loved them!! Hope you will continue to enjoy them as much as we do.
I followed the recipe exactly and my rolls looked amazing but tasted strongly of yeast? Everything else was great though…
I LOVE this recipe! It is best with bread flour, but I now will sub 1/3 with white whole wheat. It is great to get home and make up fresh hot yeast rolls with very little effort or time. I make these at least once a week when I get home from work. I love to brush them with melted butter and sprinkle with sea salt. Yummy!
Just want to say thanks for the recipe! This is the softest bread i’ve ever made and they are so delicious! I used all pupose flour and baked at 190C for 15 mins. Thank you!
thank you for letting me know you enjoyed the recipe. Always love to hear that!!
I seldom get to eat bread any more I’m gluten intolerant, and the gluten free bread is $5.00 per loaf and there’s only about 12 slices in the bag. This roll recipe is a heaven sent, because it is a time saver, LOL, I can do these about 2 x per week, but can I use gluten free baking mix in this recipe?
I have never tried to make it gluten free but I should! My college daughter is gluten free. next time she is home I’ll try it. If you give it a try, let me know!
Thank you so much for this recipe! My dad is diabetic so I used Carbalose flour.. I had to adjust to half a cup less flour and doubled the yeast.. They weren’t so pretty, but they were SO delicious. I definitely didn’t mind having open face sloppy chicken joes
So glad they worked out for you!
O.k. I needed hamburger buns and didn’t have any on hand. I flattened about a 1/4 cup of dough in a mini springform pan slapped a cooked hamburger on it and squashed another 1/4 cup of dough on top of that. Put it in the oven for 20 ish minutes and we had hamburgers in the buns. The kids loved em. Thanks for the great and versatile roll recipe.
Melissa recently posted..The battle is HIS…
Love how you made them into hamburger buns! Great tip – thanks!
Hi, Thanks for the recipe… Im in Costa Rica so I guess the weather affects the recipe a little I followed exactly the steps but at the end needed more flour as my dough was too wet… It turn out ok… next time I’ll use less water
Found this whilst looking for something to put homemade burgers into – worked very welll!
However as noted by other posters, the dough was very sticky. I checked this out and whilst the metric “cup” I used (in the UK) is close to the US imperial “cup” it is different enough (20g/cup) to mean that roughly an extra half a cup of flour should be used if you are using a metric cup (UK/Europe). HTH!

Being a mum Im always on the look out for quick and easy recipies that are also very yummy, This recipe is fantastic, big thumbs up to you, First time I tried it I found the rolls a little heavy but I think it was down to me mixing it too long with the dough hook, second time round I realised I didnt have any eggs so I left it out and didnt mix as long in my mixer and I tell you they are even better this time round, I will be sharing this brilliant recipe with all my friends and family, Thank you xx
So glad you liked the recipe – I’ll have to try it with no eggs next time!
