| Prep Time: | 40 mins |
| Additional Time: | 1 hr 5 mins |
| Total Time: | 1 hr 45 mins |
| Servings: | 12 |
| Yield: | 12 rolls |
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
- 2 (.25 ounce) envelopes Fleischmann’s® RapidRise Yeast
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons Mazola® Vegetable Plus! Oil
- 4 tablespoons butter, divided
Instructions
- Combine 1 cup flour, undissolved yeast, sugar and salt in a large mixer bowl. Heat water, oil and 2 tablespoons butter until very warm (120 to 130 degrees F). Add to flour mixture. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Add 1/2 cup flour; beat 2 minutes at high speed. Stir in enough remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 5 to 7 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.
- Divide dough into 12 equal pieces; shape into balls. Place in a greased 10-inch iron skillet. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 to 45 minutes. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and brush over rolls.
- Bake in preheated 375 degrees F oven for 18 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from pan; brush with any remaining butter, if desired. Serve warm.
- Note: Skillet Dinner Rolls may also be baked in a 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet. Baking time may vary depending on type of skillet. Bake as directed, but check rolls for doneness after 13 minutes in oven.

These are a must-have for dinner time around here! They are the best dinner rolls I’ve made.
Fun, easy recipe! They are delicious
At first I was very frustrated with these rolls. The dough is way more wet that I’ve ever encountered before….I couldn’t keep it from sticking to my bread board. Trying to roll it into balls for the skillet was a night mare. Next time I’ll get and use an ice cream scoop. It was so bad that at one point I was tempted to throw the dough out. But I persevered and wound up with the flakiest, softest most flavorful dinner rolls I ever tasted. As the Doors sang, Break on Through to the Other Side. You’ll be happy you did.
These were easy and moist! So delicious. I made 8 instead of 12. I also topped them with Everything but the Bagel seasoning (that I made). These are a new go-to. They will make great hamburger buns too.
Easy to make recipe was perfect! We loved them and will make many more times for sure!
These are nice and easy to make. My picky eater loves them. I don’t buy packets of yeast I just add 2.25 tsp they come out perfect
I also halved the recipe, they are fantastic!
These rose and looked real pretty. Taste / flavor needed a little more sugar and needed some salt. TOO MUCH YEAST—the taste was kind of malted –like beer flavor. Prefer the freezer rolls to these completely.
My mom always made rolls by a recipe from an old Watkins cookbook that I’ve never been able to find. Couldn’t find any to compare with hers so stopped eating them. Tried this recipe and family loved it. Added an extra tablespoon of sugar and they loved them even more. It’s quick it’s easy and only makes 12, just the right amount. It’s not my moms Parker House rolls recipe, it’s the next best one.
Love these. I live in a very humid climate so I had to add a touch of extra flour. So easy to make and always gobbled up by my picky eaters!
Absolutely perfect!! Didn’t change a thing, and they came out amazing. Perfect consistency, flavor and beautiful to look at. Definitely a keeper!
They turned out perfect in the 12″ cast iron pan.
The rolls tasted great. However, there were very sticky and it was hard to form them in to nice smooth rolls. They ended up looking a bit rustic — but again the taste and texture was great after they were baked. Will be checking out what to do in order to make them a bit more uniform.
I have made these rolls before love them when they come against
altered recipe a little. added extra melted butter in mix. Also added poppy seeds Much better than store bought.
These are delicious and easy to make. They were a hit with the family. I used instant dry yeast instead by using the equivalent’s chart online.
Really good, quick yeast rolls!
Yum. Easy to make.
These rolls were oh so yummy and very easy to make! Definitely going to be a regular for me. I love not having to do two rise sessions, just knead, rest, shape, rise once and bake. Easy as 1-2-3. Ssooooo good, I bet these are great with a stew or soup?!?! The texture is very fluffy and the taste is even better. I love these, thanks for a great recipe! ????
I have made these 4 times now. not my husband’s fav. but then agin he’s not a bread guy. I think they are great and easy. I’d say they are a no fail easy rolls recipe. worth a try
My husband and I loved these. They came out just right, I wish I had taken a picture they were so pretty. To us they came very close to a roll we used to get at a local restaurant, now closed. I will be making these again and again!!
