Turkey Free Bread Machine Dinner Rolls
Soft, pillowy dinner rolls fresh from the oven are one of those simple pleasures that never get old, and this bread machine method makes them genuinely foolproof. The dough comes together with pantry staples — flour, butter, egg, sugar, and yeast — so there's nothing mysterious or unexpected hiding in the ingredient list. Letting the machine handle the kneading and first rise means you do the easy, satisfying part: shaping the dough into smooth little rounds and watching them puff up until they're crowding the pan. A brush of melted butter right out of the oven gives each roll a glossy, rich finish that makes them nearly impossible to resist. These are the kind of rolls that disappear fast at the dinner table, whether you're serving them alongside soup, a holiday spread, or just tearing into them warm with a little extra butter.

Instructions

Add the ingredients to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by your machine's manufacturer — typically liquids first. Add the warm water, softened butter, and egg, then add the flour, sugar, and salt. Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the yeast. Select the Dough cycle and press Start.

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.
