For an extra touch of flavor, try adding a tablespoon of honey or molasses to the dough. The rising times are estimates and may vary depending on the warmth of your environment. Be careful not to overheat the water, as it can kill the yeast. The ideal temperature is between 105-115 degrees F. If you don't have muffin tins, you can bake these rolls on a baking sheet. Just be sure to space them evenly.
