Macadamia Free Bread Machine Dinner Rolls
Soft, golden, pull-apart dinner rolls are one of those things that make any meal feel like a special occasion, and this bread machine method makes them genuinely achievable on a weeknight. The dough comes together with pantry staples — flour, butter, egg, sugar, salt, and yeast — so there's no hunting down specialty ingredients or second-guessing labels. For anyone avoiding tree nuts, these rolls are naturally in the clear, built entirely from simple baking basics with zero risk of sneaky nut additions hiding in the mix. The bread machine handles all the heavy lifting through the kneading and first rise, so by the time you're shaping the dough, the hardest part is already done. Each roll bakes up pillowy and tender inside with a deep golden crust, then gets finished with a brush of melted butter straight out of the oven. That final butter step is the move — it gives the tops a glossy, rich finish that makes them almost impossible to resist before they've even cooled. Serve them alongside a roast, a bowl of soup, or honestly just on their own with a little extra butter.

Add the ingredients to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by your machine's manufacturer — typically liquids first.

When the Dough cycle completes (typically 90 minutes, including kneading and the first rise), the dough should be smooth, slightly tacky, and roughly doubled in size. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
