Garlic Dinner Knot Rolls
“Wanted garlic bread with a basic spaghetti dinner and improvised by creating a whole wheat garlic dinner roll. Turned out excellent and thought I should share this wonderful, easy, and delicious dinner roll recipe.” – Linda
Abby’s Challah
“I like a sweet, dense, rich challah – this is a combination of several different recipes I found on-line and tweaked until I had just what I wanted. This recipe makes one loaf.” – Liz
Mashed Potato and Chive Bread
“While this is not traditional Hungarian potato bread, I want to give them a nod of thanks for thinking of putting potatoes in bread. At that time, it was out of necessity. It just happens to turn ordinary bread into amazing, feathery soft breads.” – Linda

Honey Dinner Rolls

Homemade Sourdough Bread & Starter
“I love making this bread. I even make cinnamon rolls with it, too. You can also freeze the loaves of bread once they’re cooked, for they freeze very well. I also love to wrap each loaf with plastic, then aluminum foil, tie a festive ribbon around it, and give it to someone special.” – Bea
Mom’s Icebox Rolls
“My mother made these wonderful yeast rolls for every occasion – sometimes Sunday dinner was all the occasion she needed! They really are easy to make (easier than they sound!). They can be made a day ahead, and left in the fridge until you’re ready to prepare and bake them.” – Janice

“Easy dinner rolls. Everyone loves hot, fresh bread. This is an easy recipe that my family loves.” – Christine
Dinner Rolls
“Over the years I have learned to make wonderful things that my family and friends get to enjoy. The easiest one—and most frequent—that I make are dinner rolls. These sweet, buttery, warm, soft rolls are the best I have ever had anywhere and, while it may sound like bragging, every one of my friends and family agrees. They rock.” – Lori
Crusty Bread
“You will love this bread. It is the easiest bread you will ever make. I have made a ton of bread over the years and have failed at so many. This one I have never failed, and it is so flexible you can create just about anything.” – Dana
Do the Mashed Potato Roll
“My mom (Nanny Darling) handed down this recipe to me. My hubby, children, and guests have enjoyed these for years. The delightful part for cooks with this recipe is that the dough may be made ahead of time, for any occasion you want this special treat of homemade rolls with dinner. The dough can be left in your fridge for up to 5 days!” – Patricia D

Amish “Fancy” Butter and Egg Dinner Rolls
“Another recipe that I brought home from my trip to an Amish community in northern Indiana. When I asked why they were called fancy rolls, I was told by an old Amish woman that they had butter, sugar, and egg, making them too fancy for everyday meals.” – Family
