Vanishing Yeast Rolls
Report
The best rolls, period. They will keep fresh for up to 2-3 days in a tightly closed container. You may want to toast them for the best results. If you decide to scale down the recipe, make sure to use a proportionately smaller cake pan to keep the size of the rolls unchanged.

Ingredients
For the dough:
- 900 g all-purpose flour King Arthur all-purpose flour is recommended. See note 1
- 520 g water see note 2
- 50 g sugar
- 10 g kosher salt
- 10 ml lemon juice
- 55 g vegetable oil
- 18 g Rapid Rise Yeast see note 3
For the egg wash:
- 1 egg
- 5 ml water or milk
Instructions
- Mix all of the dough ingredients in a large bowl, cover and let the dough rest for 5 minutes.
- Knead the dough by hand right in the bowl for about 2-3 minutes. The dough should be soft slightly tacky, but not not sticky. If the dough is sticky, let it rest for another 10 minutes and then knead again for 1-2 minutes. As the flour in the dough absorbs more water the stickiness will go away. Cover the bowl with a damp kitchen towel or saran wrap and place in warm place for 1.5 hours to rise. The dough needs to double in size. If not, let it continue to rise until it does.
- Divide the dough into 15 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball. Some flour can be added in this step if the dough is too sticky, but normally this is not needed. Grease your palms with soft butter and butter each dough ball. This will allow better separation of the yeast rolls after they are baked and help with browning.
- Place the dough balls in a well-greased 10 x 14 inch cake pan, arranging them into 5 rows of 3. Cover the pan with a damp towel or saran wrap and proof for 40 minutes in warm place
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Whisk one whole egg with a teaspoon of cold water or milk until well blended. Brush the tops of the dough balls with a light, even coat of egg wash.
- Place the pan in the oven and bake for 25-27 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Note 1 - this recipe was developed using metric measures. This is the best way to ensure the intended and consistent results. If you use cups to measure flour, this may be tricky. If you have very fresh, well-hydrated flour, you will need 6 cups (using the scoop-and-sweep method) for this recipe. Otherwise, you may need up to 7.2 cups (the scoop-and-sweep method) if the flour is less hydrated.
- Note 2 - you can use warm (about 80F - 90F) water, which will result in a quicker rise; however, a longer rise will result in better flavor development. There is a bit of a trade-off there. If you are too worried about the dough not rising in time and such, it makes sense to use warm water.
- Note 3 - this recipe is designed for rapid-rise (also known as instant or bread machine) yeast. Traditional (or active dry as it was formerly marketed) yeast has a larger granule and needs to be dissolved in water before use, while rapid-rise yeast has a finer texture and can be mixed right into dry ingredients. You can use traditional yeast, but it nust first be dissolved in warm water (about 100F - 105F) with a little bit of sugar. Let it sit for about 10 minutes until you see foam formed on top. At this point, the yeast is ready to be used.
