Ten Minute Rolls
Scroll down for printable recipe card! 😁
I’m the worlds worst about planning a meal from start to finish and not thinking about the bread until we’re about ready to eat. That is where these rolls come in handy. If you work fast, you can have them ready start to finish in about ten minutes using ingredients you probably already have on hand.
The ingredients are easy and you probably already have them on hand: Mayo, Milk, Salt, and Self Rising Flour.
Now let me start this post by saying that if you are someone who doesn’t care too much for mayonnaise, you’re in good company. I’ve never been a “Ooh mayo!” type gal myself. It kinda grosses me out. Thing is, though, mayonnaise is mostly just oil and eggs so lets look at it from that perspective for the basis of this recipe- because, while I don’t care for mayo, I love these rolls.
Place your flour, mayo, milk, and salt in a bowl…
Stir that up with a spoon until it well mixed.
These are kind of a cross between a biscuit and a roll, so if you want biscuits, call them biscuits. If you want rolls, call them rolls. Easy peasy!
Now spray six cups in a muffin tin with cooking spray. I also like that this recipe just makes six, which is usually plenty for us.
Divide your batter between the muffin cups. Bake at 425 for 8-10 minutes.
See how easy that was? Dump in a bowl, stir, bake.
Here are our finished rolls!
Sometimes I make these for breakfast, sometimes for supper, and sometimes as a little afternoon treat.
With a recipe that just has you throwing a few ingredients together in a bowl and stirring, then cooking for eight to ten minutes, it is entirely possible to have these done start to finish in ten minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Self Rising Flour*
- 2 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1/2 Cup Milk

Instructions

A great cook knows that its not what is on the table that matters,
it is in the chairs around the table.

I love love love these rolls…although they are in my handy dandy recipe basket as Mayonnaise Rolls. My mom and grandmother has made these for as long as I can remember. I made them for my husband when we were dating and he fell in love….with the rolls =) By the way, I love reading your blog…its an everyday thing for me.
oh and one more thing…for the ladies that isn’t crazy about mayo…neither am I but they don’t have a mayo taste. They are light, fluffy, and REALLY good. Especially with butter…
Thank you so much Penny!! I am so glad to have you as part of the family here.
Ok, so I am not a mayo gal either, rarely have it in the house, don’t care for the miracle whip stuff either, but I do have that because that is what my dear hubby likes. Can I substitute that for the mayo?
Mary, I haven’t ever tried them using Miracle Whip but I think it would work just fine. If you try it out let me know how they turn out.
Gratefully,
Christy
do not use miracle whip
Mayo on my shopping list now =P
~giggles~
these sound great and I am a a Blue Plate mayo gal myself! As Paula Deen would say anything with butter or mayo has got to be good. Making these tonight!
I hope you like them Robin…but I have a feeling you will love them!
I always thought “rolls” had yeast. This recipe to me is for biscuits, based on ingredients.
Can’t wait to try these! Another busy mom friendly recipe 🙂 Thanks Christy!…..BTW love the bowl!
Thank you Carrie, I hope you enjoy the rolls!!
Thank you so much for the easy roll share running the ranch and the Moo Poo Tea business always has me on the lookout for easy to prepare meals! Annie
I hope you enjoy Annie!
I made a double batch yesterday, and another double batch this morning. I am impressed how easy/decently good they are! I make your buttermilk biscuits religiously. They are my favorite and just delicious! My family eats biscuits and gravy regularly and every time I feel like it’s a shame to cover the buttermilk biscuit in gravy. Oh it’s amazing – but the buttermilk biscuits are so good on their own. I was out of buttermilk so I used the 10 minute roll for biscuits and gravy yesterday — and they were scarfed down! Much easier and no noticeable difference for my family. I made them again today and put cheese in some and jam in others. They were soft and warm and really hit the spot. Brilliant!!!! Thank you for all your recipes!!!
What is Moo Poo Tea?
I am headed into the kitchen right this minute to make these! I always think at the end of cooking, darn! I shoulda made some rolls with this. Now I can!
That is how I always feel too!!
Frankly* (to follow your tangent) I never really liked mayo either. Probably because my mom never used it much while we were growing up. BUT…. these rolls look great and I am going to try them soon!
You really can’t taste the Mayo in them. Let me know what you think after you try them. I think you will be pleased.
Mayo in biscuits is amazing; every time I add a heaping tablespoon of mayo into my biscuitdough and into my cornbread batter, my husband makes a special comment about how great they taste.
You canNOT taste the mayo but you surely can tell that something is “better”….. (I’ll never tell any one but my most trusted friends, because when you tell someone, you will see eyes roll or hear “eeewwwwww”; but, it soon passes once the idea sinks in.)
I also cut in a little extra virgin olive oil and use regular flour, baking powder and salt; pinch of sugar, is nice, too.
Really like your blog!
Have you used the 10 minute biscuit for strawberry shortcake?
My momma taught me a long time ago to put a little brown sugar in the biscuit dough and use it for strawberries. OH YUM. Thinking I will do this for a treat for tomorrow.
So I’ve made these twice in the last week! Doubled the recipe so I could have some to toast in the oven for breakfast the next day! So quick and easy. Maybe TOO easy for us bread lovers !
