These Hawaiian sweet rolls are amazing! I've actually dreamt of the flavor of these many times since I made them. There are not many recipes I can say I actually dream about, but this is one of them.
*Disclaimer - This recipe was originally published in 2011. I'm working hard to update all my older recipes with recipe cards, new photos, and additional recipe information. But, getting to all of them will take time. Please bear with me. In the meantime let me assure you that this recipe is still a winner and one I'm sure you'll be well pleased with when you make it at home.
HAWAIIAN SWEET ROLLS {PRINT THIS RECIPE}
3-½ cups flour
½ cup potato flakes
⅓ cup sugar
2-¼ teaspoons yeast
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons dry minced onion
2 tablespoons garlic powder
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 cup pineapple juice
⅓ cup milk
4 tablespoons butter
1 egg, beaten
2 teaspoons coconut extract
-Add the first 9 ingredients into a large mixing bowl.
-Sift together to blend thoroughly and make a well in the center.
-In a small saucepan (or microwave) heat until butter melts and liquids are warm (not hot).
-Add the butter mixture to the flour mixture.
-Stir well to combine.
-Add the coconut extract and beaten egg to the mixture and, using your hands, mix and knead the dough (on a floured surface) until completely blended and the dough is soft and smooth.
-Place your dough into a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap.
-Place in a warm, draft-free place (I use my preheated warmed oven at 220 degrees and turned off) until doubled. About an hour.
-After an hour's time, remove the dough and punch it down to deflate.
-Allow the dough to rest for about 10 minutes.
-Grease a 13x9-inch baking pan.
-Divide the dough into 12-15 balls and place them next to each other in the baking pan.
-Cover again with plastic wrap and allow to rise in that warm place for an additional one hour.
-Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
-Bake your rolls for approximately 35 minutes or until golden and the amazing aroma is wafting through your house. SO GOOD!
-Brush with melted butter (optional, but why not?) and serve!
Your family and friends will certainly be all lined up to get one. Just you wait!

Awesome choice on the recipe!!! I LOVE these! To be honest I'm a little shocked you chose them because those pictures from that post are back from when I never edited or used a good camera, but phew thank goodness you looked at the important stuff (INGREDIENTS!) Thank you so much for the kind words, it really means a lot to me to have such a wonderful, gorgeous blog post something by *me*

Dropping by from SRC. I'm always looking for new types of dinner rolls, since my hubby likes bread with his supper. I'll be trying these tasty looking ones soon.
