Description

Easy Instant Pot Dinner Rolls that are soft, fluffy, and golden-brown. Quick to make and perfect for weeknight dinners or holiday meals.

Ingredients 

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
  • 1 1/4 cup water, lukewarm
  • 2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar, white or brown
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large egg, beaten

Instructions

  • In a cup or a glass combine 1 tablespoon active dry yeast, 1 teaspoon sugar and about 1/3 cup lukewarm water. Mix well and set aside for 5 minutes.
  • In the Instant Pot combine the 4 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoon salt and the yeast mixture. Start mixing with a wooden spoon. Add the 3 tablespoons olive oil and continue stirring. Little by little add the remaining water. Mix until a soft and not too sticky dough forms. Knead it with a hand shortly, to make sure all the flour is evenly absorbed.
  • Make a ball out of the dough and leave it in the Instant Pot. Cover with the glass lid of the pot or with a plate: you don’t need to use the pressure lid.
  • Press the yogurt button and set to 60 minutes at “normal”. Make sure it is not on “boil”!
  • When the program is over, the dough should have at least doubled its size.
  • Divide the dough in 12 parts. Knead each part gently and then extend it on your hand. Wrap the sides, creating a roll with the wrapped size down. This step would make the bread puffier.
  • Arrange the rolls into a rectangular pan (7 x 11 inch or similar), lined with parchment paper. Let them sit for 15 minutes in the oven with just the light on.
  • Brush the rolls with the lightly beaten 1 large egg. Bake for 20-25 minutes at 390 degrees F/ 200 degrees C or until the tops start becoming golden.

Equipment

  • Instant Pot, or Ninja Foodi
