Notes
- Can you use rapid rise yeast?
- I’ve only tested this recipe with dry active yeast.
- The recipe says 3 tablespoons of yeast. Is that a typo?
- Nope! You will need 3 tablespoons for this recipe and I promise it works!
- Can you use regular milk or cream instead of half & half?
- You should be able to use 2% or whole milk or heavy cream in place of the half and half. It should work fine.
- Can you add nuts?
- Yes, if you want to add nuts sprinkle them over the caramel sauce in the pan before you add the rolls. Chopped pecans or walnuts would work well.
- Can you make the rolls the night before and bake them in the morning?
- I don’t make them this way, but if you refrigerate them you will need to let them rise the next morning for an hour or so. If you bake them cold from the fridge they won’t puff up.
- Why is my caramel sauce hardened after baking?
- When you make the sauce you need to take it off the heat once it starts to boil. If you overcook the sauce at this stage, it can harden after you’ve baked the rolls. So, don’t overcook it in the saucepan.
- Can you use all-purpose flour instead of bread flour?
- I have not tried this, but some readers have and say it works fine.
