Description

These No-Knead Buttermilk Dinner Rolls are fluffy, buttery, and incredibly easy to make, requiring no kneading at all.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups buttermilk, room temperature (sub dairy free)
  • 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 4 cups bread or all-purpose flour, plus more for shaping
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 3 teaspoons kosher salt
  • ¼ cup melted butter (sub dairy free), plus 1 tablespoon for finishing
  • Flaky salt to finish

Instructions

  1. Stir the yeast into the buttermilk and let it sit for 10-15 minutes. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt and let sit for 10 minutes.
  2. Add buttermilk, yeast, and ¼ cup melted butter to the bowl and mix it together until combined. The dough will be wet and sticky. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 2 hours until it has doubled in volume.
  3. Uncover and sprinkle dough with flour, then turn it out onto a floured surface. Divide the dough into 2 halves, then each half into thirds for a total of 6 pieces. Divide each section in two again to have 12 pieces.
  4. Using flour, shape each piece into a ball, smoothing the top and pinching the sides under to hide the seam. Place rolls in a lightly greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spaced evenly apart.
  5. Cover and let rise for 60-90 minutes until the rolls have doubled in size.
  6. Bake at 400ºF (200ºC) for 25-30 minutes until golden.
  7. While baking, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter. Remove from oven and brush the tops with melted butter, then sprinkle with flaky salt and serve warm.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free option, substitute buttermilk and butter with appropriate alternatives.
  • These rolls can be refrigerated after shaping if you don’t plan to bake them immediately.
