Yogurt gives this dinner roll recipe a bit of a tang and honey provides it with a subtle sweetness.


To make the dinner roll recipe more cupcake fan friendly, I baked the rolls in cupcake tins. The rolls came out looking just like little bread cupcakes!

For kicks, you could “frost” them with some butter and jam!
