We love how simple and delicious Copycat King’s Hawaiian Rolls recipes are
Ingredients
6 cups all-purpose flour, plus an
additional 1/2 cup flour, divided
3 eggs
2 cups pineapple juice, room
temperature
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 (1/4 ounce) envelopes yeast
1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) butter,
melted
Instructions
- In a small bowl, beat eggs. Add the pineapple juice, sugar, ginger, vanilla, and melted
butter.
- Measure 3 cups of the flour into a large bowl. Stir in your egg mixture until well
combined. Sprinkle in the yeast packets, one at a time, mixing well.
- Add the remaining 3 cups of flour and mix well. If it becomes too difficult to stir with a
wooden spoon, just use your hands! Make sure all of the flour is well incorporated—the
dough should be tacky to the touch but not overly sticky. If it appears too wet, sprinkle
in a bit of extra flour, just a tablespoon or so at a time. Cover your bowl with a clean
kitchen towel and set it in a warm place to rise for 1 hour.
- Remove your dough from the bowl and knead in an additional ½ cup of flour. I kneaded
mine 10 to 15 times, making sure the flour was well incorporated.
- Divide the dough into three equal parts. You may either bake 3 loaves of bread, form
the dough into rolls, or a combination of the two. I baked one loaf of bread, forming the
remaining dough into 15 rolls and baking in a 9×13 pan. Cover and place in warm place
to rise for an additional hour, or until the dough doubles in size.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Brush tops with melted
butter, and serve warm.
