I made these rolls as the original poster suggested using 1/4 cup dried onions in the dough and 2 1/2 t. yeast (bread machine). I also used dried milk and did not brush the rolls with egg white nor did I top them with additional dried onions as I thought the onion flavor was sufficient. They were very soft and a nice change to plain rolls for burgers.

This is the best recipe for rolls I have ever made!! Extremely versatile, I have made, onion rolls, hamburger garlic rolls (using l teas. garlic or more to your liking), plain dinner rolls, and today I made 2 loaves of wheat bread. I replaced 1/2c. flour and used 1/2 cup whole wheat flour. Bake 350 for 25 to 30 min. Next time I bake, I will try 1 cup whole wheat flour. Also, I took another reviewer advice, and I do not use milk, just 1 cup of water. I just love this recipe!! Thank you so much for sharing with us.

These turned out good ! I also added 1/4 cup of onion to the dough for more flavor . Turned out like the kind you get at the bakery . These are great with chicken salad .

Wonderful! I used 21/2 tsp. yeast, and did not put the topping on before baking. I did brush the buns with butter after they came out of the oven. Soft and tasty and the bottoms have a little crunch to them. Delicious!

These were absolutely delicious. Just like the onion rolls from the local bakery that I love. I'll make them again and again! Oh...as a couple of other reviewers have said, they were pretty dry as made originally. I ended up added a few extra T of water while they were still in the stand mixer to get the dough to a better consistency. (I don't use bread machines).

Not a bad idea. I thought the dough had too much onion in it and it overpowered everything. I want to have the yeasty taste of the bread also. I would recommend cutting the amount of onion powder and minced onions in half.

Really great rolls! They did make my entire house smell like onions, but it was worth it! I increased my yeast to 2 1/2 tsp and put in a full 1/4 cup of minced onion into the bread per the submitter's additional notes. My husband thought they tasted a bit like a biscuit, which wasn't bad, just an observation. Very flavorful and great for burgers!

This was my first time making rolls and they turned out well I think. I didn't have any instant potato flakes but I used quick cooking oats instead based on another review. I also substituted one cup of wholewheat flour for 1 cup AP flour. Also I was running low on Whole Wheat flour so I topped up the cup with some cornmeal. Good recipe. I will use again

I ended up with 2 batches of these...the first time I accidentally added water instead of milk but didn't realize it until after the bread machine was mixing...so rather than throw it away, I just let it go and made another batch with the milk. I could hardly tell the difference. I made them by the recipe but I didn't have any onion powder left, so I omitted that...they were phenominal! We ate them warm as hamburger buns...yummy!

These are faaaaabulous! Best rolls I've ever made. The sprinkling of dried minced onion on top makes them look extra gourmet. I've added a bit of garlic powder which is nice with these too. Perfect texture and they rose beautifully. Great recipe!
