Ingredients
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for the baking dish
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- One .25-ounce package dry yeast
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Heat the buttermilk, butter and sugar in a pot until simmering; whisk in the baking soda, then let cool to lukewarm. Meanwhile, put 1/4 cup lukewarm water in a bowl and stir in the yeast; let stand 5 minutes. Whisk the yeast mixture into the buttermilk mixture.
- Whisk the flour and salt together in a large bowl. Add the liquid and mix until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough in the bowl until it comes together and is smooth, about 2 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand 30 minutes.
- Butter a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. Divide the dough into 12 pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Arrange the balls in the buttered dish. Lightly cover with plastic wrap and let rise until nearly doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Bake the rolls until puffed and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm.

Pretty good
Excellent! Second batch: Mixed in grated cheddar cheese with the flour and served warm with a honey/chili compound butter. Amazing.
Excellent rolls they where not dry and a very easy recipe to put together. I did use my stand mixer with the bread hook on it. I think I will to brush butter on the top of the rolls next time.
Love me some bread!!!
I tried this recipe twice. The first time the dough did not rise. I realized that 5 minutes was not long enough for the buttermilk mixture to cool to a temperature that wouldn’t kill the yeast. The second time I used a laser thermometer to check the temperature and waited until it was near 110 degrees before adding the yeast mixture. This time they rose as expected.
Mine didn’t rise either
I still have to check the temp on my water for the yeast. Great rolls!
Julie H., your yeast may have been bad.
Followed recipe and my rolls never rised.
Amazing recipe loved by family & friends!
