From soft rolls to golden donuts to the perfect pizza base, this homemade dough collection by deesviral brings warm, bakery-style comfort straight to your kitchen.
1. Homemade Dinner Rolls
Ingredients:
4 cups all-purpose flour (plus extra for dusting)
2 teaspoons yeast
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/4 cups warm milk
1/4 cup oil
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
For brushing before baking:
1 egg white + 2 tablespoons water (egg wash)
For brushing after baking:
2 tablespoons melted butter
Steps:
1. In a large bowl, combine the yeast and sugar. Add the warm milk and let it sit for 5 minutes until bubbly.
2. Mix in the oil, salt, and eggs. Gradually add the flour, one cup at a time, mixing as you go.
3. Knead the dough for 5–7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
5. Once risen, divide the dough into 16 to 24 equal pieces. Shape each into a smooth ball and arrange them in a baking pan.
6. Cover and let them rise again for 30 minutes.
7. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
8. Brush the tops of the rolls with the egg wash to achieve a beautiful golden color.
9. Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
10. Immediately after baking, brush the warm rolls with melted butter for a soft, glossy finish.
Perfect alongside warm soups, morning coffee, or an afternoon cup of tea.
2. Homemade Donuts Dough Recipe
Ingredients:
1 pack rapid rise yeast
1/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 cup warm milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup softened butter
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Oil for frying
Steps:
1. In a large mixing bowl, add the warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Mix well and let it rest for 5 minutes until bubbles form on top.
2. Add the eggs, butter, salt, and flour. Mix thoroughly to form a dough, then knead until smooth and elastic.
3. Cover and let the dough rest for 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
4. Once risen, divide the dough into 2 parts for easier handling.
5. Lightly dust your surface with flour. Roll out each portion of dough to about 1/4 inch thickness.
6. Use a donut cutter to cut out shapes. Re-roll any scraps and repeat until all dough is used.
7. Heat a deep pan with about 3 inches of oil. Once hot, carefully fry the donuts in batches until golden and crispy.
8. Drain on paper towels or a wire rack.

Serve warm for a nostalgic, homemade treat that’s perfect with milk or coffee.
