Easy Slow Cooker Dinner Rolls

As November starts rolling in, my excuses to bake have been exponentially increasing, and that gets me excited to get in the kitchen and start experimenting with new recipes and techniques.

These buttery slow cooker dinner rolls are super easy to make and definitely addicting. Serve them with dinner or use them as buns for sliders.

I like to slather the tops with melted butter and broil them for a couple of minutes as soon as they’re ready. The texture is soft and the taste is sweet. You can add garlic and herbs if you’d like. If you prefer them less sweet simply reduce the quantity of sugar.

Last night, I shared the entire process on my Instagram page. I am sure the content has been erased but keep on the lookout for more recipes and preparations.

Why cook them in the crock-pot when there’s an oven? Because you might need the oven to cook other things or you don’t want to heat up the entire house.

Author: Tiffany Bendayan
Ingredients
For Rolls:
  • 3 cups bread flour or all-purpose flour more may be needed
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast (1 packet)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 teaspoons salt
Topping:
  • 1 Tablespoon melted butter
  • Coarse salt optional
US Customary - Metric
Instructions
  1. Warm the milk in the microwave
  2. Pour the milk in the bowl of a mixer, sprinkle the yeast. Mix lightly and cover for 5 minutes for yeast to activate
  3. When the mixture starts to bubble add the flour, honey, sugar, melted butter, and salt
  4. Using the dough hook, mix on medium speed for 5-6 minutes or until dough becomes soft and elastic. You'll know the dough is ready when it cleans the sides of the bowl
  5. Remove from the mixer and place on the counter. Cut into 12 equal pieces (I used a weight to be more exact and each of my rolls weighted approximately 2.29 oz)
  6. Roll each piece into a ball
  7. Line slow cooker with parchment paper
  8. Place balls inside and cover
  9. Cook on HIGH for approximately 90 minutes
  10. Check the bottom to see if the bread is completely cooked (bottom should be browned)
  11. Remove from the crock pot and brush the tops with melted butter
  12. Sprinkle the tops with coarse salt (optional)
  13. Broil for 1-2 minutes or until the tops brown
  14. Enjoy!

    Can this be done in an instant pot on slow cooker setting?

      If it works in a regular slow cooker I don’t see why it wouldn’t work in the instant pot, as long is on the slow cooker setting and the inside of the pot is DRY.

      I’m thinking you would have to at least half it as the IP is tall and skinny. Make sure you use high cooking of slow cooker setting.

      Oh no! did you check the expiration date of your yeast? did you use instant yeast?

        Brand new yeast that’s exactly in your video. I think it might be the milk. I’m going to try a third time today!

          Maybe your milk was too hot? Liquids that are too hot kill the yeast. Good luck!!

    Made these crockpot dinner rolls and they were wonderful. Although my yeast was heavily expired the rolls were quite heavy but they raised just enough and still delicious! The house had the warm delicious baked bread aroma. Mmmm, willl definitely do this again but wth fresh yeast!

    If i dont have a dough hook can i do this by hand i.e. kneading for how long? Thank you!

      February 14, 2018 at 9:21 am

      Of course Edwina! Good to get some elbow grease. Knead until the dough becomes together, is stretchy, and smooth. About 10-15 minutes of manual kneading

    Can you use another type of flour such as almond flour etc? If so what would be the best kind? Also what temp should your milk be for the yeast?

    Reply
    • Tiffany says

      April 5, 2018 at 11:05 am

      Milk should be at temp 105-110 F. For other types of flour I haven’t tried.. I am guessing a combination of cornstarch, almond flour, and GF flour but we’d have to figure out the exact measurements of each

    What happens with the moisture from condensation on the inside of the lid? Was that a problem? Can one put a cloth over the bread while it cooks to soak up the moisture?

    • Tiffany says

      May 24, 2018 at 9:20 am

      Not really Susan! As you can see in the video it didn’t bother the rolls. Just remember to brown them in the oven to get a nice caramelization on the top

    Made these today and unfortunately they got burnt on the bottom. I left them for less than 90 min on high, in a similar crockpot.. I don’t get it. The part that’s not burnt, is delicious, but I would never use the crockpot again for bread šŸ™

      Oh no Emma! so sorry that happened! if your crock pot is stronger then maybe try lining the bottom with parchment paper

    I tried this today and it was easy least! The pull-apart rolls turned out great, light and fluffy. The top wasn’t golden brown but the bottom was. Did you brown the top in the oven? This recipe is going in my rotation.

      Exactly Karen. If you’re replacing honey, add sugar. Remember that honey has a liquid component. If you’re dough feels dry, add 1 tb extra of water (but only if the dough feels dry)

    Can I omit the honey? I don’t like the taste of honey cooked in bread…. If so should I increase the sugar by 2Tbs in place of the honey?
