These pan yeast rolls will melt in your mouth. They are absolutely delicious and the perfect addition to any gathering! I have made them for years and they are wonderful. My family looks forward to these rolls during the holidays. This recipe was on a box of grits years and years ago and I have been making them ever since!

Pan Yeast Rolls Ingredients Needed:
Instant grits or quick grits, uncooked
Sugar
Salt
Hot water ( I just use hot water from the tap.)
Vegetable oil (I use canola oil)
All-purpose flour
2 packages of dry yeast (two 1/4 ounce packages or 4 1/2 teaspoons)
I have also made the dough balls larger and placed in a 9 x 13 inch greased cake pan. They will be more like sandwich rolls if made this way. I have been making these rolls for many years and they have always been a hit. They are wonderful with butter. The texture is different with the addition of the grits and we love it.
- I have reheated the whole pan by covering with foil and putting in the oven on a low temperature.
- I use a hand mixer when I make these rolls.
- This makes two pans of rolls, you could cut the recipe in half if you wish.
- The sugar doesn’t make the rolls sweet at all, the sugar helps the rolls rise.
“I experimented with freezing the grits rolls before letting them rise — turned out great! I just took them out of the freezer, covered with a towel, and let them rise overnight. Baked them the next morning. I’ve made these twice now — they are so easy to make! I used the quick grits, and the particles in the dough that was exposed to baking were noticeable. The interior particles were not. Kinda adds a good little crunch to the tops.” – Janet
“I used to make these 35 years ago (!) using the recipe on the instant grits bag. I guess I thought they’d have it forever and never wrote it down, but then it wasn’t there. I grieved! I cannot wait to make these again. By the way, I substituted half whole wheat flour, and the flavor was incredible. Thanks for giving this pre-family tradition back to me for me to share with the family now!”- Jocelyn
