Say Goodbye to Time-Consuming Dinner Rolls: Try Amish Friendship Bread Rolls

I love making homemade dinner rolls during the holidays, but they can be so much work. Multiple rises, etc. So this year I wanted to try my hand at an Amish Friendship Bread version, to see how they would turn out. Definitely much easier, but the texture is a little bit different. It doesn't have that stringy pull apart gluten factor we know and love from traditional rolls.

    I made these and mine didn't rise as I would have liked either. The recipe said to bake 10 minutes or until the tops were brown... 40 minutes later the tops were very light brown. The taste was heavenly, but they are definitely denser than regular bread rolls. I will definitely make them again and I will add more flour and knead by hand next time.

    I'm an very old professional baker and I almost always either refrigerate the dough after a short fermentation Then shape rolls morning of Or I let fermentation proceed, shape into rolls THEN refrigerate rolls covered with plastic. May oil tops if you wish. Take out while preheating and bake. If large pan might sit at room temp 15 mins or so. I never use a Tablespoon of ANY yeast even if doubled if a starter is used. A slow rise is preferable for taste and crumb AND using the frig to retard rise or slow fermentation allows one to fit into schedule at home or even in bakeries. A cool dough is quite easy to shape also for those sticky doughs. Look for a cold rise recipe. Many brioche doughs use cool rise technique.

    Might add IF frig is too full for shaped rolls then cut yeast amount and put rolls in unheated area. They will rise slower but may need a few more mins to warm before into oven. They do not need to be kitchen warm to bake.

    Rachel, I also use avocado oil in my yeast rolls-bake them in my gas oven. I think the lack of browning comes partly from the avocado having a higher burn temp and also possibly the gas oven. I always have to flip my biscuits over to get the tops to brown. I never had to do that in my electric oven. I still wouldn’t give up my gas stove though! Your rolls looked great!

    Thanks for this recipe try out. Nice job, those rolls look so delicious. I have to admit that I am slightly intimidated by yeast/bread making. Funny enough, my dad was a professional baker. Because I was young, and uninterested, he wasn't able to impart much bread making wisdom to me.😶 In the past I have kept and used friendship bread starter. It is just a bit too sweet for me. I tried to get a sourdough starter going without success. I plan on trying again in the future.

    I made these today and they are rising currently. In regards to the amount of flour it depends on where you live. Even with it being so dry where I am living I had to add more flour. So I'm wondering if the recipe was wrong about the amount of flour. Interesting anyways. I tasted the dough itself and I can tell its going to be VERY good. It tastes very similar to my buns recipe that is more of a sweet roll. I've made Hawaiian rolls before and this (to me) tastes different from that. They are currently rising and I'm waiting until they have doubled in size before baking.

    Rachel, I have a question. My Friendship bread starter didn't bubble much at all🥺 I did research and it's suppose to bubble and your kitchen is suppose to really warm for this to happen. How warm is your house? We heat with wood and pellet stove and in WI almost straight across from you. I'm going to try again. I have sourdough going and make a lot of sourdough and yeast breads. I kept my starters far from each other too. I am enjoying watching you having fun with your Friendship bread starter and all your ideas!!
