Buttery Fluffy Cornmeal Dinner Rolls recipe

These Buttery Fluffy Cornmeal Dinner Rolls are a great accompaniment for stews and soups. I make a batch of these every Thanksgiving and they always go down a treat because they are so light and fluffy. They’re easy to make too, which is always helpful at this time of year!

Start by cooking the cornmeal with milk – I usually use whole milk but you can use 1%, 2% or whole milk as you prefer. I then add the remaining ingredients in stages until I have a smooth dough.

To make Buttery Fluffy Cornmeal Dinner Rolls, you will need the following ingredients:

I tried making these today with my daughter. She says they are amazing. I think I kneaded it too much..
