About Yeast Rolls
Golden Corral Yeast Rolls cost from $3.99 for a half dozen To Go, and they are the most famous thing on the menu. Bakers make them from scratch all day, so your roll lands minutes out of the oven: soft sheets that pull apart, a little sweetness, a thin buttery crust. Add the whipped honey butter and a basket disappears before the entrees do.
At the buffet the rolls come unlimited with your ticket; the To Go box brings the same bread home. The half dozen totals 1070 calories, and they work best next to gravy, mopping up Pot Roast juices or paired with Bourbon Street Chicken. The recipe below is the closest home version we have tested.

How to Make Yeast Rolls at Home?
The restaurant works from an enriched dough: milk, butter, egg and sugar, risen twice and baked hot. This home version follows the same method and makes a dozen rolls soft enough to press flat, with the honey butter that finishes every pan at the buffet.

Directions
0 of 8 steps
Tips
- Milk at 110 F feels warm on the wrist, never hot. Above 120 F it starts killing the yeast.
- A cold kitchen doubles rise times. Set the covered bowl in an oven with only the light on for a steady 80 F.
- Brush butter twice: once out of the oven, once five minutes later. That double coat is the buffet shine.
Variations
- Sweeter Sunday rolls: raise the sugar to a third of a cup and add a teaspoon of vanilla to the dough.
- Whole wheat: swap in up to a third whole wheat flour before the crumb turns dense.
- Garlic butter rolls: skip the honey and whip the butter with a grated clove and parsley instead.
Serving Ideas
- Split and stuff with leftover pot roast for a two bite slider.
- Serve warm beside anything with gravy; the roll is the mop.
- Day old rolls make the best french toast base you will ever try.
