Grease a 9x13-inch pan. Arrange the frozen rolls evenly inside, leaving a bit of space between each one.
12 frozen yeast dinner rolls
Cover with greased plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel. Let the rolls thaw and rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, usually about 3–4 hours, depending on your kitchen temperature and package directions.
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
In a small bowl, stir together the melted butter, honey, cinnamon, and vanilla. Brush the mixture over the warm rolls immediately after baking.
½ cup unsalted butter, ¼ cup honey, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Serve warm with any remaining honey butter and enjoy.
Notes
The calories listed are an approximation based on the ingredients in the recipe card and a serving size of 1 roll. Actual calories will vary.
After making the honey butter, chill it for a few minutes until slightly firm. It should be spreadable, not solid.
Use part of the honey butter to brush over the rolls and save the rest for serving.
I used Rhodes frozen dinner rolls and followed the package directions for thawing, rising, and baking. Use the instructions on the brand you buy.
Store leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the fridge for up to 5.
