Amy, my go to soft roll/ bun is CI's potato burger bun. The recipe is available on line. It is amazing what difference the potato makes...acts like a moisture magnet.

I second the potato roll recommendation.

Dear Amy,

I made the FC rolls for "Baby Jaden" and he loved them. They are light and so flavorful, a definite keeper!

Baking breads is something I have never gotten good at, so a question for the experts: Can these be made and frozen before baking? They look amazingly good, and not terribly difficult, but ... a 9 x 13 pan. For two people. For two fat people who are plugging on a so-far successful diet. :) I'd rather not blow the diet but an occasional dinner roll would hit the spot as a treat.

PS: Treats are good. That is why I have six pounds of bacon in the smoker, right? (I did eat miso soup for lunch today...)

You can also bake them and then freeze them. Or par-bake them, so you can eat fresh, nice rolls and you are less tempted to snack on one.

I feel your pain...I love carbs. I won't deny myself of them but will have them in moderation.

You shouldn't have any problem freezing them after you bake them. Enjoy!

Are these rolls really soft? I'm still looking for a really soft roll for pulled pork. And, I'm doing a smoke on Saturday.

Sorry I didn't see this until now, Amy. Actually I just made a double batch of these rolls on Friday night for DH to take on a golf trip yesterday, and yes, they are really soft. I typically brush them with butter after they come out of the oven, which I'm sure helps a bit. But in general they are the softest, fluffiest roll recipe I've made, and I've tried a bunch.

Let us know how the potato rolls turned out if you made them. I've made white loaves and burger buns with potato flour but never dinner rolls. And just talking about this is making me hungry. I might have to sneak one of the rolls in the freezer in a minute (for self-control purposes, I guess it's better to freeze them unbaked ;) ) .

Edit: One thing I do that I think helps keep baked goods from browning/crisping too much on the bottom is to always put a heavy cookie sheet under whatever pan is baking. Then when I open the oven to rotate the pan once, I slide the sheet out. So that gives them time to brown slightly but not too much.

This sounds like what I am looking for. I assumed you would freeze before baking so you would have fresh rolls, but par-baking sounds like it would, except I have no idea how one successfully par-bakes. Help?
