Mom's Yeast Rolls Recipe Reviews - Allrecipes.com (Pg. 1)

I agree with the others in terms of needing more flour than the recipe called for a least a cup more of flour. I also used my kitchen aid mixer and think that it absolutely needed the extra flour in order to get the dough to the right consistency. I think that the walnut size was way too small for a dinner roll, so I suggest that you make them a little larger. Good flavor. I would make them again with the appropriate changes.

This is a really nice recipe for yeast rolls. I would definitely not recommend baking for more than 30 minutes though if using something besides a cookie sheet.

Great Results. I used butter instead. I had to add about 3/4 cup extra flour. I will definitely Make these again.

The baker in me knew that there was not enough flour in these for my liking. I added around 3/4 to 1 cup of additional flour in the kitchen aid. They were still a bit sticky but flouring the hands helped. I also let them rise the third time after forming the dough into balls. They are quite lovely with a bit of tweaking.

I found that the issues outlined by the majority of the raters proved to be true. The dough was sticky and needed substantial more flour. I also will use butter milk instead of the hot water when I bake the rolls again. That was what my mother used in her recipe. i haven't found anyone who could make the rolls as wonderful as she did. These rolls came close and with some tweaking I think I will have a winner. When it was all done, the rolls were delicious. I am so happy to have found this recipe. This year I will be making my mother's rolls for Thanksgiving. Thanks again.

I cut this recipe in half to get 18 rolls. I used my Kitchen Aid to make these rolls. I proofed the yeast in the mixer bowl with the sugar and warm water for ten minutes until the yeast "bloomed", then I added melted margerine, the egg and the dry ingredients. This dough needed 1 3/4 more flour than the recipe stated to get the dough into a ball and able to jump on a hook. I kneaded this dough with my dough hook for about five minutes then I set it to rise for an hour in a large greased bowl covered with a tea towel on a warm heating pad for an hour. I used a 1/3 cup measuring cup to make uniform rolls and rolled them on the counter to make better shaped rolls. I got 11 smallish rolls out of this recipe, not 18. I covered the top of the rolls in the muffin tin with saran wrap before letting it rise on the warm heating pad for another hour or so. I baked them at 400 degrees for 12 minutes, then brushed the tops of the hot rolls with vegetable oil right out of the oven. These rolls rose a little slow but the flavor of the rolls was very good. I liked that this roll asked for no milk, no butter as I have a child with a milk sensitivity. I'd make these again--they remind me of rolls my Grandma used to make. No frills but comforting all the same.

This was my first time making yeast rolls. We loved these. I was surprised by the sticky batter but did not give in and add more flour. I was glad I followed the recipe. Per the picture and the advice of a few of the reviews, I did use a muffin tin instead of a 9x13 pan. They baked beautifully. For those who said they did not like this recipe, notice that they added more and more flour - DON'T DO IT!! Grease up those fingers and dig in!! Enjoy!! :)
