Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Simple & Quick: Takes just about 30 minutes from start to finish!
Irresistible Flavor: Creamy and slightly tangy from the yogurt, with a buttery finish.
Eye-Catching Appeal: The warm golden tops instantly make any table more inviting.
Flexible Serving: Perfect as a side for soups, salads, or slathered with butter for breakfast.
Diet-Friendly Options: Easily adaptable for different dietary needs.

Ingredients You’ll Need

2 cups self-rising flour: This ingredient is key as it provides the necessary leavening, creating those light and airy rolls. If you don’t have self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining all-purpose flour with 1 tablespoon of baking powder and a pinch of salt for each cup.
1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt: Using full-fat Greek yogurt adds richness to the dough, while the acidity activates the baking powder in the flour. You can substitute low-fat yogurt, but the texture might be a bit different.

How to Make 2 Ingredient Dinner Rolls (Easy No Yeast Bread Recipe!)

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F. Prepare an 8×8″ baking dish by lining it with parchment paper or giving it a light grease to prevent sticking.
Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of self-rising flour with 1 1/2 cups of plain Greek yogurt. Stir until a soft dough starts to form. The dough might seem a bit sticky—that’s okay!
Knead the Dough: Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it. Knead the dough gently for 1–2 minutes until it’s smooth and cohesive. This helps develop the gluten slightly, which will give your rolls great texture.
Divide the Dough: Cut the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball; they don’t need to be perfect, a little rustic charm adds to their appeal!
Bake the Rolls: Place the dough balls into your prepared baking dish, ensuring they are slightly touching. Bake them in the preheated oven for about 18–20 minutes, until the tops are a lovely golden brown and puffed.
Add a Butter Glaze (Optional): For an extra touch of flavor, brush the warm rolls with melted butter right after you take them out of the oven. This gives them a soft, glossy finish that’s hard to resist!

Storing & Reheating

To store the rolls, keep them at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 days. If you need to store them longer, they can go in the refrigerator for about a week. For long-term storage, freeze the rolls in a resealable bag for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy them again, simply reheat in a 350°F oven for about 5–7 minutes, until warm. You might notice a slight texture change after freezing, but a little heat will refresh their fluffiness!

Chef’s Helpful Tips

Be careful not to over-knead the dough; this can make the rolls dense. Just enough to bring it together is perfect!
Make sure your Greek yogurt is at room temperature for the best mixing results.
If the dough seems too sticky, add a bit more self-rising flour, but avoid making it too dry.
For extra flavor, consider adding herbs or cheese to the dough!

These 2 Ingredient Dinner Rolls are not only a fantastic addition to any meal but also a wonderful project you can do on a busy weekday. They require minimal effort and are sure to impress anyone at your dinner table.

Whether they are enjoyed fresh out of the oven or saved for later, these rolls will surely win the hearts of your family and friends. Trust me on this one; they’re simple to make, completely scrumptious, and perfect for any occasion!

Recipe FAQs

Can I use regular flour instead of self-rising flour?

Yes! If you want to use all-purpose flour, simply mix 2 cups of it with 3 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to mimic self-rising flour.

How should I store leftover rolls?

Store your rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If it’s longer than that, consider refrigerating them to keep them fresh!

Can I freeze the dough before baking?

Absolutely, you can freeze the shaped rolls before baking. Just place them in a single layer on a baking sheet until frozen, then transfer to a freezer bag. When ready to bake, do not thaw; simply add a few extra minutes to the baking time.

What can I serve with these dinner rolls?

These rolls are versatile! Serve them alongside soups, salads, or grilled meats. You can also use them for breakfast with a spread of butter or jam for a delightful treat.
