Lion House Rolls are known around the world for their incredible texture and flavor. I’ve made this Lion House dinner roll recipe so many times that I’ve learned some tricks that I will share with you in the directions. Great for Thanksgiving, Easter, or any occasion.

If you aren’t familiar with the Lion House, it is a restaurant in Utah that is known for its food and especially its rolls. Everything on the Lion House menu is amazing but my favorite recipe is still their rolls.

They are so moist and the texture is amazing. Last time I was visiting my sister Shelly in Utah she made these.

I think she made her rolls extra large because she only got 12 rolls out of the batch. Imagine how big those would be.

I remember sitting and eating my roll and thinking there could not be a better roll recipe in the whole world.

I know Thanksgiving should be all about the turkey, but for me it’s all about the rolls. I’m a sucker for a warm homemade roll with butter slathered all over.
Ingredients
  • 2 cups warm water
  • ⅔ cup instant nonfat dry milk, (like Nido or Nestle)
  • 2 Tablespoons active dry yeast
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • ⅓ cup butter, softened (5 ⅓ tablespoons - plus more for brushing the rolls after baking.)
  • 1 large egg
  • 5 to 5 ½ cups all-purpose flour, (bread flour can be used if you have it on hand and will make for a lighter roll)
