Ingredients
- 1 cup mashed potatoes cooled to room temperature
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup warm milk 110°F
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
Instructions
- In a small bowl, dissolve sugar in warm milk. Sprinkle the yeast over the milk mixture and let it stand until frothy, about 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes, melted butter, and salt.
- Stir in the yeast mixture and gradually add flour until a soft dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Punch down the dough and divide into 12 portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake rolls until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.
- Allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.

I tried this recipe, but my dough didn’t rise well. Not sure what I did wrong. Maybe the yeast was old?
These potato rolls are a game changer! Super soft and delicious. A definite must-try!
Totally agree! These rolls are the best! So soft and fluffy! Yum!
I don’t know, I’ve tried potato rolls before and they were kinda heavy. Not sure if I’d make these. 🤔
Yum!! Perfect side for dinner. Plus, my kids loved helping to shape the rolls. Will make again!
Easy to make, but took longer than expected to rise. Still worth it!
These rolls are the best! So fluffy and soft, my family loved them!
Easy peasy! Love it!
So simple and delicious! Perfect for our family dinner!
I dunno…sounds too easy. Bet they won’t taste good. Hmmmm.
I think the yeast was dead… my rolls came out flat. Very disappointing.
Flat rolls? That ain’t right! Maybe try a different brand of yeast? Sometimes they’re just old.
Did you check if the milk was too hot? That can kill the yeast too! Make sure it’s not above 110°F next time.
Yum! My family loved them, but I used leftover sweet potatoes instead. Delicious twist!
Yummm, I’m gonna make these again! 😋
Easy to follow but mine came out a bit dry. I might have added too much flour. 🤔
Why use potato in bread? Seems kinda strange to me. Still enjoyed the bread tho.
These rolls turned out amazing! So fluffy and soft, thank you for sharing!
I tried these rolls and they were great too! So easy and fun to make. Will definitely make again!
I followed everything but they did not rise like I expected. Maybe should have let them sit longer?
I had the same issue! Maybe try letting the dough rise in a warmer spot next time? It really helps it to puff up better!
Pretty good, but I expected more flavor. Maybe next time I’ll try adding cheese.
I had a hard time getting the dough to rise. Maybe my yeast was expired? Not sure if I’ll try again.
No yeast in mine, just used baking powder! Still tasted fine, I guess. 🤷♀️
That’s interesting! I’ve never tried using baking powder instead of yeast. Glad it turned out fine for you! 😊
But like, aren’t rolls supposed to rise with yeast? I don’t know, just seems off to me. 🤔
Super easy recipe! Made them with my kids and they had fun rolling the dough!
I added garlic and herbs and it turned out amazing, highly recommend!
I tried this recipe but my dough didn’t rise… what did I do wrong?
Rolls are just alright, but my kids gobbled them up. So I guess that’s a win!
