30 Minute Rolls

I realized recently that I never posted this recipe. It is from Real Mom Kitchen, and I use it all the time.  I am the queen of deciding last minute that the meal I am making needs rolls or breadsticks to go with it.  Most roll recipes take 2 or 3 hours. This takes 30 minutes. Perfect. You can use it for a lot of different things, too. It makes great sweet rolls, breadsticks and pizza crust.


There are two recipes below. The first makes a dozen rolls, breadsticks or one pizza crust.  The second makes A LOT.  3 dozen rolls,  about a hundred sweet rolls, and 39 billion bread sticks.   Not really.  Just wanted to make sure you know that 3 dozen is a lot. 


1 1/8 cups plus 2 tsp. warm water
1/3 cup oil
2 T yeast
1/4 cup sugar or honey
½ tsp. Salt
1 eggs
