Ingredients

• Self-rising flour
• Plain Greek yogurt, fat-free- Learn how to make your own Greek yogurt
• Garlic powder
• Egg wash, optional
• Butter, optional

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Add the self-rising flour and Greek yogurt to a large mixing bowl. Stir until the ingredients come together. Mix in the garlic powder, if using.

Lightly flour your hands and work surface, then divide the dough into 9 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball or roll flat and use a cutter. If the dough feels very sticky, add flour a tablespoon at a time until it’s easier to handle.

Arrange the dough balls on the baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between them. Brush with egg wash, if desired.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the rolls are cooked through and lightly browned. Brush with butter before serving, if you like.

Recipe Notes

• The recipe makes 9 rolls. Each roll is 1 point on Blue and Purple or 2 points on Green. Points don’t include optional egg wash, butter, or other add-ins.
• Nutrition per roll: 63 calories, 11g carbohydrates, 4g protein, and 1g fat.
• For best results, use Greek yogurt. Regular yogurt is thinner and won’t give the dough the same texture.
• If you don’t have self-rising flour, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour with 2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Why These Rolls Rise Without Yeast

Self-rising flour contains baking powder, which helps the rolls rise as they bake. The dough doesn’t need yeast or a separate rise time, so you can mix it, shape it, and put it straight in the oven.

Variations

Garlic powder adds a savory flavor, especially alongside an Italian-style dinner. You can also mix chopped bacon into the dough or add cheese inside each roll or on top. Cinnamon butter is another tasty option, though it adds ingredients and Weight Watchers points.

Make-Ahead Tips

You can wrap the dough tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for up to 3 days. Before shaping, let it come back to room temperature so it’s easier to work with.

Storage

Keep baked rolls in an airtight container or wrap them well. They stay fresh for about 3 days before their texture starts to become stale. You can also freeze the rolls, baked or unbaked, as long as they’re wrapped well to help prevent freezer burn.
