  • 1 Dutch Dough Whisk

Ingredients
  

Roll Ingredients

  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 2 cups warm water
  • 4 ¼ teaspoons active yeast
  • ½ cup butter melted
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 6 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Butter Topping

  • 2 Tablespoons Butter melted

Shape the Dough

  • Preheat oven to 375˚ F.
  • Add a generous amount of flour to the countertop. Remove the batter from the large bowl on top of the flour. Sprinkle flour on top and use a dough cutter to add flour to the dough to make it workable. Roll into a 12x20 rectangle.

Bake the Dough

  • Bake in a preheated 375˚ F oven for 12 minutes. Rotate the pan and bake for an additional 8 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the internal temperature of the rolls is 190˚ F.
  • Brush immediately with melted butter and sprinkle with kosher salt. Let cool and serve.

Notes

Storing: Once your no knead dinner rolls have completely cooled, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. 
Reheat Instructions: When you're ready to enjoy your rolls again, reheat individual rolls for about fifteen seconds in the microwave. This will bring back the soft, buttery texture we all love.
