Fluffy Potato Dinner Rolls Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 cup mashed potatoes (from about 2 medium-sized potatoes)
  • 1/2 cup warm milk
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions:

  1. Activate the Yeast: In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, melted butter, sugar, and yeast. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until the yeast is foamy and activated.
  2. Add Mashed Potatoes: Stir in the mashed potatoes, ensuring they are well-incorporated into the yeast mixture.
  3. Mix in Flour and Salt: Gradually add the flour and salt to the mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.
  4. Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  5. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
  6. Shape the Rolls: Punch down the dough to release air. Divide it into equal-sized portions, shaping each one into a ball. Arrange the rolls in a greased baking pan, leaving space between each one.
  7. Second Rise: Cover the rolls again and allow them to rise for 30-45 minutes, or until they have doubled in size.
  8. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  9. Apply Egg Wash: Brush the tops of the rolls with the beaten egg for a glossy finish.
  10. Bake and Enjoy: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve warm and enjoy your fluffy potato dinner rolls!
