This yeast roll recipe comes courtesy of Meg from Little Bit of Life blog. She got it from her great-grandmother Lola.
And I ask you, does anyone make rolls better than a great grandma?
I think not.
I've gotta tell you, I am a staunch believer in my own garlic cheese rolls, a family favorite for a number of years. Every roll I bake is measured against the venerable GCR. Very few make the cut.
These? Well just look at them. I think, rather than Yeast Rolls, they should be renamed Mile High Rolls. One roll stretches from chin to eyebrow. Eating one is like eating buttery air.
This year, for Thanksgiving? I will make two kinds of rolls. My garlic cheese rolls (because we want no serious pouty-faces around here). And these.
They are that good.
I love making home made bread for the holidays! This is a wonderful recipe! Thank you! ♥
ReplyDeleteThat is so nice using Lola's roll recipe. I know Meg will be so happy that you featured them here. I know I am really proud that you did, so thank you. Both ladies are wonderful cooks. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving too,The benefits of having a great daughter-in-love who cooks. :)
ReplyDeleteFarm Girl, so Meg is your daughter-in-law? How cool! I didn't know! And you know Lola, too? I love it so much when we can all share recipes. I'm eager to try more of Meg's since this one is so wonderful :)
ReplyDeleteI could have sworn I left a comment already, so if you get a double post so sorry!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the link up! I'm so glad you liked them, they really are delicious rolls.
I have your garlic cheese rolls on my "To Make" list now, can't wait to try them!
I may just give these a shot, Lynn, even though I have had very little luck at making yeast rolls before. But hope springs eternal! :)
ReplyDeleteHope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
they look so soft and fluffy, my kind of rolls!
ReplyDeleteButtery air...now I LOVE the sound of that!

I can't believe how high those rolls are. That's fantastic. I'm always on the lookout for a good roll recipe. I usually measure them up again the Tyler Florence Parker House Rolls recipe I always use. But, these might give them some stiff competition. Thanks for visiting my blog and for your kind comments.
ReplyDeleteTrying these this week. My T-giving rolls burned (forgot to adjust for altitude change).
ReplyDeleteEek.
Lynn, these rolls look fabulous, so light and fluffy :-)
ReplyDeleteWow..I came from Diane's blog and what a yummy blog :)
