Honey Glazed Dinner Rolls

Honey Glazed Dinner Rolls are soft fluffy dinner rolls perfect for any meal, your family will love these homemade rolls.

Honey glazed dinner rolls are made with substituting honey for the sugar in the recipe, and after they are baked they are brushed with melted butter and honey. The rolls are a sweet slightly sticky delight.

Our daughter got married this past October. At the reception for the meal, the caterers had rolls that were delicious. I heard a lot of people comment on them about how good they were. The tops were just a little sticky and there was a bit of sweetness.

These honey glazed dinner rolls remind me of the rolls served at the wedding. I really love the touch of sweetness that the honey brings to these rolls

We have an upcoming birthday dinner for our daughter this weekend, so these rolls will definitely be on the menu. I am sure I will not hear any complaints about my choice of bread.

I have been making bread since my teen years, I learned from the best teacher, my mom. She made bread every two weeks when we were kids. She would make at least 14 loaves at a time. Yep, 14 loaves.

Things that my mom taught me about making bread.

Always use fresh yeast. Never add too much flour, your bread will come out dry and crumbly. If your house is cool, put some water in the kitchen sink or a larger bowl and place the bowl of bread dough in the warm water, it will help it to rise.
