Serves: 12 rolls
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1 cup of milk, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Make sure you have a large mixing bowl and a non-stick skillet or frying pan ready for cooking.
- In the large mixing bowl, combine the 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together until they are evenly mixed and there are no lumps.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in 1 cup of milk and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon or spatula until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, you can add a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time.
- Once the dough comes together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough gently for about 1-2 minutes until it is smooth and elastic. Be careful not to over-knead, as this can make the rolls tough.
- Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. You can do this by cutting the dough into pieces with a bench scraper or knife. Roll each portion into a ball using your hands, ensuring they are smooth and round.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. If desired, you can add a little butter or oil to the skillet to prevent sticking, but it's not necessary if your skillet is truly non-stick.
- Once the skillet is hot, place the dough balls in the skillet, leaving some space between each roll to allow for expansion. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your skillet.
- Cover the skillet with a lid to trap steam and help the rolls cook evenly. Cook the rolls for about 10 minutes on one side, or until they are golden brown.
- After 10 minutes, carefully flip the rolls over using tongs or a spatula. Cover the skillet again and cook for an additional 10 minutes on the other side, until they are also golden brown and cooked through.
- Once cooked, remove the rolls from the skillet and place them on a wire rack to cool slightly. You can brush them with additional melted butter for extra flavor, if desired.
- Serve the rolls warm, either plain or with your favorite spreads, soups, or stews. Enjoy your delicious no oven bread rolls!
Tips
- Use a truly non-stick skillet to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking
- Keep the heat at medium - too high will burn the outside while leaving the inside raw
- Don't skip covering the skillet with a lid, as the trapped steam helps the rolls cook evenly
- If the dough feels too sticky, add flour gradually - just a tablespoon at a time
- For extra flavor, try brushing the finished rolls with garlic butter or herbs
- These rolls are best served warm, so time your cooking just before serving
- Let the dough rest for a few minutes after mixing to help develop better texture
