No Yeast Dinner Rolls

Hi! Iโ€™m Sheila from Life, Love, and Good Food, and Iโ€™m excited to bring you this three-ingredient recipe for no-yeast dinner rolls!

My Quick Mayo Dinner Roll recipeโ€”yes, I do mean mayonnaiseโ€”has been a family favorite for as long as I can remember. With just three basic ingredients and ready in about 20-minutes, this recipe has saved the day many times when Iโ€™ve forgotten to get rolls from the bakery.

Letโ€™s face it, I rarely make traditional homemade bread, and I especially donโ€™t have time to do it on weeknights. That’s why this recipe is really handy and my family loves them!

Besides being convenient, these dinner rolls without yeast have a light and airy texture and are delicious, especially when served hot from the oven with a little butter!

How To Make No Yeast Dinner Rolls

Start with two cups of self-rising flour, a cup of milk, and three โ€œheapingโ€ tablespoons of mayonnaise. My mom taught me to make these rolls and the amount of mayonnaise was never exactly determined. She would just open the jar and dip out three big spoonfuls. In all actuality, thereโ€™s probably about five tablespoons of mayonnaise if you leveled them out!

Just dump all the ingredients into a mixing bowl, stir until the dry ingredients are just moistenedโ€”think muffin batterโ€”then evenly divide the roll dough into the cups of a well-oiled muffin tin. The dough will be thick and lumpy.

As the rolls bake, a nice golden brown crust forms on the bottom and sides. The tops may not get overly browned, so pop them under the broiler for just a minute if you like them more browned.

Sometimes I like to sprinkle a few poppy seeds on the rolls before they bake and then I brush them with melted butter as soon as they come out of the oven. You may also want to double this recipe, because these dinner rolls disappear fast!

    Bland and boring. No flavor at all. Stick with NO KNEAD ROLLS or find a good drop biscuit recipe that uses butter or shortening!

    Hello.. I’m in Brazil and we don’t have self-rising flour. How much baking powder should I use? Thanks!

      Use 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon baking powder if you are using all-purpose flour.

    Made these last night. Delicious! Iโ€™m too intimidated to make โ€œregularโ€ biscuits, so I thought Iโ€™d try these. Delicious! And so fast! I cut the recipe in 1/2 for just 2 of us. Topped with shredded cheddar just before baking. Thank you so much!

    Sheila, this is Sandy again. I have a question do these rolls have the texture of biscuits when they are made?

      Sandy, they are more “muffin-like” than a biscuit texture.

      I use this recipe with 1 cup self rising flour, 2 heaping tablespoons mayo, 1/2 cup milk. They are definitely biscuits, not muffins or yeast rolls…biscuits, the best and easiest to make. Double the recipe, as they won’t last!

    Sheila,
    I was so happy to see you post this recipe for the no yeast dinner rolls. I have been looking for A recipe like this for months, and just never could find one. I am not fond of baking anything that you have to use yeast in. I will be baking these rolls very soon. Thank you again for posting this great recipe.
