These quick and easy dinner rolls do not require any yeast, proofing, or kneading. The rolls come out fluffy and buttery and are great when you need a quick bread recipe and don’t have yeast or are short on time.
After sharing my No Yeast Bread recipe, I’ve been working on a dinner roll version. This recipe couldn’t be any easier. The dough comes together in just a few minutes and then it’s ready to go in the oven.
Ingredients
- sugar
- salt
- baking powder
- milk
- butter or oil
- flour
How to Make No Yeast Rolls
- All the ingredients are added in except for the flour.
- Add the flour in gradually until a dough forms and it’s not too sticky to work with.
- Roll the dough into balls and place onto a baking sheet.
- Bake about 25 minutes or until done.
Variations
What I love about this recipe is that it is quite versatile.
- Add more sugar to create a sweet roll.
- Replace half the milk with greek strained yogurt for a more tender roll that tastes like a sourdough biscuit.
- Use more butter for a more biscuit-like texture.

No Yeast Dinner Rolls
A quick and easy dinner roll recipe that doesn't require yeast, proofing, or kneading.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter melted (or canola oil)
- 1/2 cup + 3 tbsp milk
- 1/2 tbsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
- Add all ingredients except flour into a large mixing bowl and whisk. Add in flour gradually and stir in until a dough forms. Be careful not to add all the flour because you should have a little leftover.
- Divide dough into 7 pieces and roll into balls. Place onto baking sheet, spaced 2 inches apart. If desired, you can brush the tops with egg wash before baking or you can leave them plain as is and brush them with melted butter after they are finished baking.
- Bake rolls for about 25 minutes or until tops are golden brown.

Notes
- Slightly adapted from Instructables Cooking
- If you don't have butter, you can replace with oil. If you use oil, you will likely need close to the full 2 cups of flour. Butter adds more flavor to the breads, but the oil version rises a little more.
- You can use any milk or milk substitute (like almond or soy).
- Do not add in the full amount of flour all at once. The amount left will vary depending on the milk type you use and whether you use oil or butter.
- To make a sweet variation, you can increase the sugar and decrease the salt.
- I also tried a version replacing half of the milk with yogurt. It made the rolls more tender but they also tasted more like sourdough biscuits rather than bread and they did not puff up as much.
- For more color, you can brush the tops with egg wash before baking, like in these photos. You can also leave out the egg wash and brush the rolls with melted butter after they are finished. Adding egg wash will give them a more yellow finish. Baking them plain will give them a more light brown finish.

Did you make this recipe?I'd love to see it! Mention @KirbieCravings and tag #kirbiecravings!
All though this recipe is good and easy, I would agree with those who say it is more like a biscuit. I followed the recipe exact with some flour left over and added gradually. I used whole milk and sweet cream butter. They took about 30 minutes tho to get golden on top. I am at a higher elevation. Not sure if that makes a difference. Next time I will be adding a little more salt. They weren’t exactly packed with flavor but wete good with extra butter on top .
We’re glad you enjoyed this recipe!
I just made the the rolls the recipes was super easy for a non Baker like me but it did taste more like a biscuit than a roll which wasn’t bad just different than I was expecting I’ll try it again and see how it goes can’t wait for my husband to try them
Hi Emily! We’re glad you gave this recipe a try and found it easy to make!
Sure are good!
Thank you Elizabeth!!
Thank you I’m definitely going to try the no yeast dinner rolls. I only have an air fryer but I’ll give it a go.
Let us know how it works!
Excellent
Thank you!
I added extra butter and a little honey. Delicious!
We’re happy you loved the recipe!
Followed recipe exactly…. Stayed in oven for about 30 minutes and brushed with butter…. Super fast, easy, yummy and perfect with home made chicken soup. Just wondering if I freeze them will they still taste fresh after they thaw or are warmed up in the microwave ?
They should freeze fine – they won’t taste as fresh as when you made them, but they should still taste good!
These turned out delicious! Followed the recipe exactly but they’re definitely not rolls – came out more like biscuits. Crunchy on the outside, fluffy on the inside!! Still tasted and turned out great
I use these when I am making my version of Chick fil a minis. Cut them in half, open them up, put some chicken in there with a honey butter sauce on top. AMAZING.
That’s a great idea!
Trie the recipe.They turned like tea biscuits not rolls.
Did you use butter or oil?
I made this recipe and it was so very salty and the rolls were hard
There’s only 1/2 teaspoon of salt for the whole recipe, are you sure you measured correctly? Also, if the rolls were hard you might have added too much flour or baked them for too long.
Thank you so much for this recipe! I tried it out and I absolutely LOVED them? they were so soft!! Definitely wanna make them again! My family really liked them too!
Here is some good news for you!
For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
??1 Corinthians? ?15?:?3?-?4? ?KJV??
“and brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.”
??Acts? ?16?:?30?-?31? ?KJV??????
We’re glad your family loved them!
How can this be bread like. I did everything like the recipe said and i got pancake mix sort of stuff i can’t roll anything from that. So i put like 200grams extra flour in there and it still is not rollable
It sounds like your liquid measurements might have been wrong.
They came out tasty but came out more like a biscuit as opposed to a soft dinner roll. I did like the no waiting time for the dough and overall quick process. I would try again.
Did you add more butter? As mentioned in the recipe, more butter will give the rolls a more biscuit-like texture.
I loved these! Thank you so much. I can’t eat yeast so I’ve been craving bread. These hit the spot! I am in a very happy place atm haha.
They came out perfectly. Nothing like traditional rolls, but they won’t be because of the no yeast, however they weren’t dry or crumbly. I used olive oil instead of butter. This will now be my new bread recipe!
We’re happy you loved them!
Honestly, I accidentally made the recipe wrong and they came out so well!
I mistaken 1/2c of milk for 1/2tbsp??
They are so little but packed in buttery goodness?
We’re glad they still turned out for you!
Edible, but not something I would make again. As others have said, it is quite plain and floury. Tastes like a dry biscuit. I followed the instructions, only substituting oil for the butter.
We’re sorry you didn’t like the recipe. As mentioned, using butter will create a more biscuit-like texture, but it shouldn’t be dry. If yours were, you might have overbaked them.
I think I will try it…they look nice
We hope you enjoy them!
Your recipes are great!
Thanks so much!
Felt like having warm buns tonight but i have no energy whatsoever. I followed this recipe and even though i didn’t put any love in it, the buns were super good ! Can’t wait to try it again but with love – i bet they’ll be a.mmm.azing. I might even do them for my Xmas supper !!
We’re so glad you enjoyed them!
Followed the recipe exactly. They taste like plain flour.
We’re sorry you didn’t enjoy them – it’s surprising they tasted so plain, are you sure you included all of the ingredients?
Mine turned into biscuits ? they were good but not what I was aiming for!
Did you measure everything right? Also, did you add the flour all at once or gradually as instructed – this will make a big difference in the texture.
Don’t know what I am doing wrong! When I try to whisk everything together (except flour) all the ingredients clump and won’t incorporate into the milk! The milk stays liquid but everything else clumps up into the whisk. WTH?
That is strange! It’s hard to know what the issue is, we’ve never experienced that, and many readers have made this recipe with success. Are you sure that you measured correctly and used melted butter?
Are you getting the milk to room temp? I did it with cold and it all clumped.
We don’t have this problem, but trying room-temperature milk might help.
this is such a good recipe! this was delicios!
We’re so happy you loved the recipe!
Terrible ? not what I was expecting at all, hard rocks with no taste, and I followed the recipe exactly- used regular milk and regular butter even brushed some butter on top when they were done. No thank you
We’re sorry you didn’t enjoy the recipe – if the rolls were hard it sounds like your baking powder might not be fresh
Same experience here. Ick.
We’re sorry you didn’t enjoy them – when you mixed the dough, did you add the flour a little at a time? Adding it all at once could be the problem.
This is a very simple yet great recipe especially if you need bread but have very limited time. I used sugar alternative (erythritol), low fat milk and canola oil. I served it with a canned vegetable soup and they’re a good pair. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. Would definitely be a staple in our kitchen!
Thanks for sharing your tips – we’re glad you enjoyed it!
I love your recipe it’s easy .HAVE a lovely day
Thanks for letting us know that you love it!
My grandmother used this recipe which we knew as “baking powder biscuits” . We ate them hot with butter and homemade jam. Also good with stews or soups, but usually used for creamed chicken or salmon. Thanks for the recipe and the memories ?
You’re welcome! Thanks for your nice comment 🙂
Very disappointed, followed directions & used oil instead of butter. I only used about 1 1/2 cups of flour. They would not stick together when trying to form a ball. Very crumbly. Have you got any suggestions. I am willing to try again.
Did you add the flour gradually? The amount you will need can vary so that’s why we recommend slowly adding it until the dough comes together. Sounds like you might have added too much.
Not like rolls at all. Small scone or something. Very disappointed.
Sorry you didn’t enjoy them.
Can’t wait to make them as they look super easy to make and a yummy edition ? to meals.
We hope you love them!
Meh…I’ve never had yeast free rolls before so I have nothing to compare it to. They were edible if you dipped them in soup but I found them heavy and bland. They were more like dry dumplings. It would be nice if the recipe included how long to knead them for. Good in a pinch though.
Sorry you didn’t enjoy them – if they were dry, you likely added too much flour.
Can you use Almond flour?
You would need to adjust the amount and without testing it we can’t say by how much.
I forgot to buy pastry to make my children ‘pigs in a blanket’ (using kangaroo sausages) so I decided to cook them wrapped in dough. I needed something quick and had no yeast. This recipe worked a treat! I have used this recipe before when I needed to make a quick and easy dough for steamed buns. Definitely need to save this recipe!
So glad it worked for you!
Can you use regular butter instead of unsalted?
Yes, but we recommend reducing the amount of added salt in the recipe.
Making these today with bread flour can’t wait to try them second batch waiting to go in smells delicious already so hungry waiting for them will let you know what my partner thinks as I’ve been saving penny’s trying different recipes as moneys tight
Let us know how it works with bread flour – we haven’t tried that.
Could I make this without sugar? My father is diabetic.
We haven’t tried it without sugar, but it should be fine.
I made them with self rising flour (2 cups, omitted baking powder and salt) and almond milk and they rose beautifully and tasted delicious- I added a full tbsp of white sugar and it was perfect by itself. Without yeast it would of course be a denser crumb but holds together way better than a regular drop biscuit. (one commenter stated it was more like a biscuit than a roll, that’s a given without the yeast) Definitely going to use this recipe as a base for quick dinner rolls moving forward.
Thanks for sharing your tips – we’re glad you loved the rolls.
Very simple and delicious. My family loved them. Will definitely make again. Was a great treat with homemade chicken noodle soup.
That sounds so good – we’re glad you enjoyed them!
Definitely more biscuits then roll texture but I used honey butter instead of regular an added extra sugar and went by texture when adding flour so that could be my fault however they make amazing biscuits!!
We’re glad you liked them!
This didn’t work at all. The baking powder reacted with the milk before any flour was added. The result was seven tiny biscuits.
We’re sorry to hear you had trouble with the recipe. Just by chance, have you checked that your baking powder isn’t expired? That might be why the rolls didn’t puff up when you baked them.
I cant give his recipe a rating because i didnt actually end up making these but I just wanted to say THANK YOU for just getting on with it – I am so sick of food bloggers telling you their entire flipping life story (no one cares! show me the food!!) before getting to the point. This post was a breath of fresh air and when I have time i’ll defo come back for a nosey
We’re glad you enjoyed the post! Give the rolls a try and let us know what you think 🙂
I get what you’re saying but just know it’s specifically for SEO and making their post easily seen when recipes are googled. Otherwise they would have to compete with the million other food bloggers with similar recipes. More words = more views.
Everyone approaches it differently! We like to keep posts short with helpful info about the recipes.
I am giving you 5 stars for tea buns or tea biscuits. They were very good indeed.
But….they are not, by any means, a dinner roll, which is supposed to be bread.
I ran out of bread and was delighted to find this recipe and made it right away to have with my bacon and eggs but was very disappointed when it tasted nothing like bread.
In the meantime…In different countries, it might be called bread but not in Canada where I am from.
We’re glad you enjoyed them! There are all different kinds of bread – a recipe like this with no yeast is going to have a different texture, but we still call it bread 🙂
Just made these. With hazelnut milk. Love them! Soft and fluffy. Very easy dough.
We’re happy you liked them! Thanks for letting us know about the hazelnut milk, too.
I made these and added a small amount extra salt. They taste fine for a yeast free roll. A little more like a biscuit in a way. I added melted butter to bowl and used small whisk to mix dry ingredients (except flour) to it before adding the milk. I ended up using around 1 1/2 C flour (not compacted). Made 8 instead of 7 rolls in a small muffin silicone pan. Baked for the recommended 25 minutes. I’d give these a 3 3/4 star rating. Good for when you’re in a pinch.
Thanks for letting us know!
Sorry that’s supposed to say my baking powder wasn’t expired
Nope not a good roll recipe, mine are dry hard lumps the didn’t rise at all.
Is your baking powder expired? That could be an issue. Also, if you added too much flour that can make them dense.
Not quite sure when I halved the recipe due to low ingredients at hand, why but even leaving 1/4 c of flour the dough was dry and falling apart.
We haven’t tried halving the recipe – with baking recipes it’s not always as simple as cutting everything in half. If the dough was dry there was probably too much flour.
Very fluffy, and dense at the same time. Also very bland, needs a little more salt and any kind of seasoning. Maybe a smidge more sugar.
The Instructibles version says to cool the butter. This is an important step that is omitted in this recipe. Either you cool the butter or warm the milk. When cold milk is added to melted butter, you do not get a homogenized texture.
Thanks for your comment – we haven’t had the issues you mention when we make the recipe which is why the instructions are the way they are.
Dough was a mess. Made more of a lump biscuits rather a nice flat one Not make it again
Without knowing more it’s hard to say what might have gone wrong. Did you add the flour slowly? That’s the key to getting the right texture for the dough so it can be rolled into balls.
Very easy and nice
I enjoy it with any meal
We’re happy you like the recipe!
I run out of yeast, and so I will try this recipe. thanks.
We hope you enjoy the rolls!
This worked great in a pinch! Thanks!!
That’s great – glad you enjoyed them!
Can you double the recipe if you need more rolls if you have a larger family?
Instead of doubling the recipe, the best thing to do is make two batches with the amounts listed. We haven’t tried doubling it and bread recipes don’t always double well. Hope that helps!
Amazing and so easy to follow. Thank you kirbie
You’re so welcome! We’re happy you enjoyed it.
Mine turned out like a biscuity roll , actually forgot the butter and added it in time.
Also added dry basil onion and garlic powder and the extra sugar for a lovely herb flavour.
Yummy. Thanks
I’m glad you enjoyed!
Great
I’m so glad you enjoyed!
This recipe tasted a little like chemicals but it was easy for me
We’re glad you liked how easy they are – as far as the flavor, we haven’t experienced that. Are you sure you measured the baking powder accurately?
I loved this easy recipe and it deserves five stars
I’m so glad you enjoyed!
Hi kirbie
M from India and tried these dinner rolls yesterday. They were awesome!!! Thank you sooo much. I have misplaced my yeast bottle n cud not find it. So searched for yeast less version n found the perfect one! Here dinner rolls are known as l?di pao and are essentially made with yeast. Your dinner rolls had different texture but they were fluffy n soft all the same. Would try with whole wheat flour next time n will see what happens.
Love
Dipali
I’m so glad they worked out for you!
Looking forward to trying out this recipe.
Would I be able to freeze them? ?
I have not tried freezing, but I think so
Great recipe,thank you.had it with lots of gravy and meat??
I’m glad it worked out well for you!
These were good & so easy! I only had salted butter but no problem. I even thought I ‘screwed up’ the recipe by mixing up a few hours ahead – (except the flour). It was done bubbling etc. from the baking powder so when I finished the recipe, I added a bit more baking powder. They still turned out good! Next time I may try adding some cheese and a bit of garlic! ?
I’m so glad they worked out well for you!
I made these for dinner tonight and they were super yummy. However, they were biscuits, not dinner rolls. I followed the recipe exactly, though I tripled it. I didn’t use all the flour, in fact I probably only used 5C flour. I used butter, not oil. Great biscuits though!
I’m glad you enjoyed them

I try the dinner roll and i find it good today , extra sugar is nice especially with tea. Easy to bake and no need to expand love it
I’m glad you liked them!
I tried this out and it was lush.
I’m glad you enjoyed!
Wonderful! I subbed the extra 3 tbs milk for 3 tbs of my sourdough discard, and they came out great. Good recipe for when your in a pinch for dinner!
I’m glad it worked out for you!
My wife and I tried them. Very easy, taste good, excellent with sausage gravy.
I’m so glad it worked out for you and your wife!
After you make these are you able to freeze them?
I haven’t tried freezing, but I think so
Great base recipe! Used all whole wheat flour and added a few tablespoons of vegan yogurt in addition to pea protein milk. Made it Savory with everything sprinkle and used it for hamburger buns. Did not spread out at all, but puffed up nicely. Thank you!
I’m glad you got the recipe to work for you
I do not have parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Can I simply put these on a baking sheet?
I think that should be fine but you may want to grease first so they don’t stick
Hi! Thank you so much for this recipe! I made it with a gluten free bread flour mix (but I really do think any gluten free flour with xanthium gum in it would work), almond milk, coconut oil, and maple syrup (I made a ton of substitutions I know lol) but it turned out great! It does indeed work with gluten free flour, you just need to use more flour to get it to the right consistency. In the end I used around 5 cups, so I think I may just cut back on the amount of wet ingredients a bit in the future to save me some flour. And depending on the gf flour you’re using you may have to bake at a lower temp for longer so they bake through and don’t come out gummy (that’s just how it is with gf flour) but the basic recipe you provided is sound and therefore allows for substitutions like this. It’s really hard to find recipes like this that are just really great overall and so versatile to allow for substitutions. It’s exactly what I was looking for, for dinner tonight! Thanks again!
thank you so much for sharing your experience!
Not good at all !
Followed all directions and I only needed dough over 4 times so not to over work it and they were soft and light yet once baked they were heavy and turned out like a scone / damper type .
Not a soft fluffy bun
I’m sorry they didn’t work out for you. the dough doesn’t need to be kneaded at all actually. I’m wondering if you added too much flour?
Another successful recipe! I made 6 instead of 7, a good dinner roll and not biscuit-like. Delicious! In fact, I left one for 2 days, and it never lost any value at all!
I’m so glad they worked out well!
Does work well with self-rising flour???? :/
I haven’t tried
I want to make this recipe today but was planning on using whole wheat flour instead. Have you tried WWF rather than APF?
Thank you!!
I have not, sorry
East to make i used vanilla almond milk added the butter and a bit if oil runs oil and I did add the butter on top Instead of waiting after I’m impressed with the results
That’s olive oil sorry auto correct lol
I’m glad you enjoyed!
Can I mix ahead and place in fridge until ready to cook?
I have not tried, but I think that should be okay
Any luck with doubling the recipe?? Need a little bigger batch
that should be fine
I sent the wrong signal and it hit me, I like it??
I’m glad you liked them!
Loved the ease of this, but with 2 cups flour I still had a liquid dough and finally after 4 cups of flour I got a kneading type mass. I must say I was very dubious by this point at what they would taste like but My oh my, they turned out wonderfully and taste real good!
I’m glad they still worked out!
Can I use GF flour, like Bob’s Red Mill All-Purpose GF Flour?
I have not tried with gf flour
Very tasty, but mine came out more like biscuits than bread. Maybe I did something wrong? Any suggestions? Thanks!
the more flour you have to add, the more biscuit-like they will be so try to add less flour next time.
Could I add a bit of shredded cheddar cheese to make these cheese rolls?
That should be fine
Hi could you use almond flour or something else as replacement for flour
it will not work with almond flour. I don’t think it will work with a flour substitute
Love the recipe. Thank you so much have wanted this recipe for awhile!
I’m so glad you liked it!
Love this recipe, made it but I added garlic and parsley. They came out absolutely tasty and so easy. Love it
I’m so glad they worked out well for you!
I made 12 of these little rolls from one batch of dough. I topped them with a little bit of Everything topping so the result was almost like bagel-holes! My boyfriend loves these so much he actually told me to save the recipe (instead of just nodding like he usually does). So that must be a good sign!
I’m so glad you both liked them!
Just want to say how awesome this recipe is! I would not listen to any complaints I had no yeast but had all the ingredients listed just added some minced garlic and shredded cheese and mr dash seasoning and I would totally make them again super easy to make! Thank you SO much for sharing. I can’t believe people could post negative comments they may have made a mistake on this mixture because it’s delish!
Thank you for the kind words!
Can I freeze these for later use? If so how long are they good?
I have not tried freezing them
Amazing!!!
I’m so glad you enjoyed!
Why do you say “Be careful not to add all the flour…” Then why do you list that amount in the ingredients? Why wouldn’t you just say 1.5 cups?
I’m not sure where you are getting 1.5 cups. As I state in the notes, the amount of flour will vary depending on whether you use butter or oil. It will be close to 2 cups, but not the full 2 cups. You should only have a little bit of flour leftover
After reading the comments and simple ingredients I am looking forward to making the biscuits today. Because there were numerous mentions of too much salt. I’m planning to add more sugar as you suggested. In reviewing the ingredients it’s hard to understand why they tasted so salty to some of the cooks.
i hope you enjoy!
Quick and easy, the family were so impressed they wanted more.
I’m so happy to hear that!
They had a nice flavour but were like scones, maybe our bread rolls in Australia are different.
They came out real good but it’s more biscuit I enjoyed it
I’m glad you enjoyed!
I’ve saved this recipe for a while now and finally made them today. Thank you so much for this recipe it’s amazing, they are more like biscuit rolls but fluffy in the middle and mine rose quite a bit, they taste Devine. It was so easy to make which is perfect for me and the quantities are spot on. My family loved them, so tasty and looks so good. I will definitely be making these again. Thanks so much.
I’m so glad your family liked the rolls!
So I made two kinds of vegan bread using this recipe.
I add 1 tbsp of basil pesto n 1/3 cup of vegan mozzarella, 1/4 tsp salt. Made the dough into rolls
5 mins before done, brushed lemon margarine. Turned out great, slices perfect n tastes great. Baking time 25mins until light brown..
Second bread I wanted more of a flat brioche style.
Again less salt. Give it 30 mins to rise. Then patted or pressed to 4 inches round and inch thick. Baking time 25 mins.. turned out soft, slightly puffed for slicing and taste delicious. Definitely recommend this recipe.
.
Thank you for sharing your experience and variation!
The rolls came out super hard for me and my family couldn’t eat them. I thought maybe I had missed an ingredient or a step on the recipe but I looked it through carefully and that wasn’t the case. Well because they are so easy and fast to make, I thought I would try again. I made them two more times trying to follow the recipe religiously each time But to no avail. The only reason I tried so three times is because my husband loves bread rolls with his tomato soup and the ones I usually make require yeast. I cannot find any yeast since we went into quarantine. I know it’s not my baking powder that’s an issue because I used it for a different recipe and it worked just fine. I Appreciate you sharing the recipe and wish it would have worked for meeting .
I’m really sorry to hear that. I’m not sure why your rolls are coming out hard unfortunately
Try adding a little less milk and a little more butter? Often with baking I’ve found that if my muffins or breads are too hard I’ve added too much milk or water. Try adding an egg? If I want a cake to be a little lighter I add an extra egg or two (: Hope it helps.
I had to double the recipe because it didn’t make enough
Made these using my kitchenaid stand mixer (looking for any excuse to use it- it’s brand new, hehe). Expectations were low considering the ingredients & skill level, but my kids LOVED them!
I omitted the salt since I used salted + olive oil butter, and they weren’t salty at all! I also brushed them with minced garlic before baking, which was subtle & yummy.
Definitely adding these to my RecipeBox app! Thanks.
I’m glad you enjoyed!
Quick, easy & delicious!
Thank you
I’m glad you enjoyed!
Hi I was wondering what tempature the oven should be at?
as stated in the recipe instructions, 350F
I’ve run out of yeast and have tried to order yeast multiple times on my past grocery orders, so had to look for a recipe that didn’t call for yeast. I’m glad to have found your recipe. It was easy and I actually doubled it and used both Canola oil and butter. Tasted more like biscuits but were delicious. Thank you!
I’m glad you enjoyed them!
They did not work for me. Could not get them to be in a nice ball shape they were breaking apart.
It sounds like you added too much flour.
They were so easy to make. SO DELICIOUS! ?
glad you liked them!
Tried this ! Came out very very yummy and soft. Few adjustments though: Less salt( the original recipe was too salty for me when i tasted the mixture). And i used brown sugar. But definitely a great recipe and very yummy
I’m so happy you liked them!
It was basically a scone?! Yum tho but not a fluffy bread roll!
It sounds like you may have added too much flour
What else can be used in place of butter/ oil? Applesauce?
you need butter or oil
Made these with oil and sprinkled some “everything but the bagel” seasoning and they were delicious! I have yeast at home but honestly i’m too lazy to wait for it to proof sometimes so this was a quick way to get my bread fix!
I’m so glad you enjoyed!
Can I omit the salt and sugar. I know strange question but I want it to be baby friendly for my 6m old as well. If not, I’ll just reduce each.
yes you can omit
Hi! Tried your recipe and it was good. Maybe i should add more sugar next time coz my kid has a sweet tooth. ? by the way, was wondering if instead of forming it into balls could i roll it around 1 1/2 inch thick and use a cookie cutter instead. Would it still turn out the same way in terms of texture? Thanks.
I haven’t tested that so I’m not sure.
Yummy and easy/quick. Made these with a small handful of dates for some sweet flavour. Definitely don’t use all the flour. I added a little bit more butter and a little bit of mayo. Came out great.
I’m glad it worked out for you!
I made these buns with margarine rather than butter (butter is 4 x the price) so I cut back on the salt and they were delicious.
Thank you
I’m glad they worked out for you!
Best bread rolls ever! I made these for my family for dinner for nearly 2 weeks during coronavirus quarantine (when I couldn’t get yeast). They all loved them. They’re super easy!
I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Can I use aluminum foil!?!?
The bread may stick to aluminum foil
Loved them, recipe is easy and quick which in my house is perfect. Thanks for the recipe.
So glad it worked out well for you!
So good!!!
I’m so glad you like them!
This was my first time ever baking bread, and I decided to use this recipe since I don’t have yeast, and making them into smaller rolls instead of a large loaf seemed less intimidating. My attempt actually came out really well! Slightly dry, and I think I either used too much salt or I accidentally got salted butter, but luckily it’s not too salty. I like salty stuff. It was definitely messy and took me a minute to figure out what the right texture was (again, first time baking bread), but I don’t think that’s any fault to the recipe. ? Thank you for this! I’ll have to try again in the future.
I’m glad it worked out for you!
Terrific recipe. I brushed them with garlic butter once they came out of the oven. Recipe worked perfect.
So happy you liked them!
I’d like to use these as a hamburger bun. If I use half yogurt and half milk, oil (or mayo?) Would it be tender enough to serve the purpose of being similar to a bun?
Not looking for exact, just something that works in these quarantine, waiting on ingredients to be delivered, times.
I would say these are more biscuit like than bun, especially if you use yogurt.
These were amazing! I sprinkled some herbs and garlic salt on top before baking. They came out delicious and perfect for pulling apart and soup dipping. Thank you so much 🙂
I’m so glad they worked out well for you!
Will bread flour work instead of all-purpose?
I have not made it with bread flour but I think it may work
I followed the recipe to the T, rolls came out more like Biscuits and didn’t get much bigger then the balls i rolled. Maybe i didn’t add enough of something… they still tasted good though. Good compliment to my roast carrots and tators.
They won’t rise as much as traditional bread rolls but they should rise. You may need to check your baking powder.
Do you think I would be able to use whole wheat flour, or half and half?
I think half and half may work, but I have not tested it
Can I use baking soda instead of baking powder?
No the recipe will need baking powder for best results.
I just tried of this recipe everything was truly amazing. Just that it was too salty and I followed the ingredients exactly. Try going for 1/2tsp of salt instead. Other than that, best dinner rolls recipe I’ve found so far. Thank you.
I haven’t had issues with it being salty. Did you use unsalted butter in the recipe? But I’m glad you got it to work for you.
Can I use self raising flour as dont have baking powder thanks
I have not tested with self rising flour
This recipe looks amazing. I can’t use yeast (or all-purpose flour) right now during Passover, do you think I could substitute with rice flour?
I don’t think it will work with rice flour
I like the recipe. I have tried a similar one and wondered why it didn’t look like the photos. This one is explained well, step by step, with variations. If I make choose one ingredient over the other what result I should expect. Now I can make adjustments based on the result I desire. Thank you!
Hope you enjoy!
I made the no yeast rolls and they were amazing. I will totally make them again.
I’m so glad they worked out well for you!
Thank you so much for your recipes! In this time of avoiding contact with others, I am not running to the grocery store every time I run out of something, and my pantry is getting kind of lean. I am so grateful for you and your recipes! I love how you list all of the possible substitutions for every recipe. You are a lifesaver (perhaps literally!)!!!
I’m so happy to help!
These rolls were extremely easy to make & a great substitute after an epic fail with making bread for Easter dinner. I did not use all of the flour & I actually made 8 rolls. They were more biscuit like but moist & I brushed melted butter on them as soon as they came out of the oven. I would double the recipe & definitely make them again!
Thanks for sharing your experience! I’m so glad the recipe worked out for you
Great recipe! I am planning to make these today for Easter! Is it possible to sub honey for the sugar?
I haven’t tried it with honey but I think it should be okay since it’s only a little.
hi just looking at your site for no yeast rolls and i see that you do not state how much of each ingredient to use could you please rectify this please thanks ken have a happy easter
Hi, all the ingredient amounts are listed in the recipe card.
I only have raw sugar and brown sugar can I use either
try with the brown sugar
They are good but I recommend using less salt they taste too salty
Did you by chance mix up your salt and sugar? There’s only 1 tsp of salt in the entire recipe and there is also sugar to balance it, so the rolls should not taste salty
Do you think you can shape this dough to make bunny rolls?
yes that should work
I am really looking forward to making these, but do you not need to knead the dough? Also do you think this recipe would work to bake the bread as a loaf instead of buns? Thank you! Just discovered your blog and everything looks lovely
You don’t need to knead the dough. If you are looking to make a loaf, I would use this recipe instead: https://kirbiecravings.com/no-yeast-bread/
Would this work if you made it with almond flour so it’s keto friendly?
This recipe will not work with almond flour. If you’re looking for a keto bread rolls, I have a recipe: https://kirbiecravings.com/keto-bread-rolls/
