What are Hawaiian Rolls?
Hawaiian rolls are a sweet bread that originated in Hawaii. We like King’s Hawaiian rolls, buns, and round bread. Sweetened with a combination of sugar and pineapple juice they are sweet, soft and SO SO good. Hawaiian rolls are perfect for so many things. I love making turkey melt sliders and mini Philly cheesesteak sandwiches with them and today we’re making French toast.
