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.

Ingredients for Ten Minute Rolls

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.

Mixing Up Ten Minute Rolls

Place your flour, mayo, milk, and salt in a bowl…

Mixing up Ten Minute Rolls

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!

Spraying pan

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.

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.

  1. I love your site and recipes. I have made some of them and want to do many more:)

    One suggestion: When I see your post and want to take a quick look at the recipe I have to scroll down to see it. I enjoy reading your stories too but sometime I just want see the recipe first. Is there a way to go straight to the recipe – maybe there is I am missing it. Thanks.

    1. You know, as I was reading this, in my mind I pictured a new way to scroll, one that goes really really fast! lol
      I don’t believe there is a way to just skip forward other than scrolling down but if it ever comes to me and I have time to implement it I surely will. Thank you so much for commenting and letting my brain go silly on me picturing folks speed scrolling!
      I haven’t got any sense but you already know that 🙂
      Gratefully,

  2. I was brought up on the ‘tangy zip of Miracle Whip’ and tried to sub it for mayo in Ranch Dressing…BAD IDEA… I would not recomend it in this recipe either! So great that Mama Janice gave you the ‘Dutch’ bowl. Always love your posts, tangents, etc.! Thanks, Christy! Oh, and I will be making these biscuits/rolls soon! LOL They look yummy!!

  3. These rolls look easy…and good! I’m also very bad about not planning ahead with bread/rolls for a meal. These should come in handy!

    Funny you should mention Pyrex; I was just doing some research on food storage containers and decided on a set of pyrex ones (UPS is delivering them today!). I won’t be baking with them, for sure!

  4. The next time you are looking for a piece of glassware try looking at Replacements Ltd. website. They have just about anything you can come up with. I have a few pieces of a Bittersweet pattern by Universal Cambridge that you could buy from Montgomery Ward’s through the mail back in the 1890’s, Replacements send me out an email anythime they come across a new piece of this pattern.

  5. I’ve been making these rolls for awhile now, with the difference that my recipe adds 2 tbsp sugar. They’re so quick and easy!

    For the person asking about using Miracle Whip, you can. They cook the same. You do notice the taste more than you do with mayo, though. I use whatever I have handy and no one has any idea about the “secret” ingredient unless I tell them!

  6. Dang…I thought I was the only one who forgot about making rolls or biscuits until supper was almost ready! Now I don’t feel so dingy!! Thanks Christy, I can’t wait to try ’em!!
