I saw this recipe for Quick and Easy No Yeast Dinner Rolls on Pinterest. Actually I saw the same photograph on many sites, but none of them actually looked legitimate so, in all fairness, I don't really know who to give credit to. If you do, I will be more than happy to add their information on this post.
To be honest, I was completely intrigued. No yeast? Quick and easy? Small batch? It was worth a go!
At the present moment, with this horrible virus, we are experiencing a shortage of flour, as well as yeast. I have no idea why? Its like they are the toilet paper of the food world I guess.
So when I saw the recipe for no yeast rolls, using only a cup of flour, and making only four rolls, I was immediately interested. The photograph looked pretty good as well . . . although having now baked them I can pretty much say that the photo they show on Pinterest has nothing to do with this recipe.
It happens. I was not entirely disappointed however. The end result was quite good actually, and while not totally like a yeast roll, it was not so far removed from being similar to a yeast roll either either.
You can't even call them a muffin . . . because they bear no resemblance to a savoury muffin either. The crumb and consistency is far more "bread-like" than "muffin-like."
As you can see they puffed up really nicely and have a beautiful crumb. Filled with lots of nice holes, but not too many . . .
They are not crumbly in the least. More like bread as I said, than a muffin . . .
They took very well to being spread with butter . . . .
They went really well with our dinner which was a delicious Spam & Bean Bake.
They actually tasted really nice. I was very pleasantly surprised. There is no fat in them with the exception of 2 TBS of mayonnaise, no eggs either. I suspect the mayonnaise takes the place of both.
All in all I would consider this to be a winning recipe that I will absolutely make again. I might even try to add some flavours to them, like perhaps some herbs and garlic powder . . . I think it is a basic recipe that you could very easily play with.
When I make them again I might substute some of the flour with some corn meal and some molasses for a portion of the milk. Just a bit and add some raisins. That would make them a bit like brown bread I think. We will see how it goes! Watch this space.
