The easiest way to make eggless rolls is to follow a recipe that doesn't make use of eggs. Though many dinner rolls use eggs to make them fluffier and richer in flavor, rolls are really just small, hand-sized loaves of bread and do not require eggs. Omitting eggs from a recipe that calls for them, however, can ruin the rolls, so if a roll recipe that uses eggs is being used, a replacement for the eggs should be added into the mix. Once the dough for eggless rolls has been worked and, in most cases, allowed to rise, it should be baked in a hot oven until the rolls are completely cooked.

Most bread roll recipes do not call for eggs. The best way to make eggless rolls is to find a recipe for this type of roll and follow it carefully. Baking requires strict control over the ingredients, so measuring out the flour, yeast, and water is important in order to make the rolls turn out correctly.

People who are making eggless rolls can improve the quality of their rolls by choosing high-quality ingredients. The appropriate type of flour should also be used in the rolls, which can, depending on the recipe, be whole wheat, bread, all-purpose, or another type of flour. Additionally, yeast needs to be proofed to make sure that it is alive before it is mixed into the dough, or it will not cause the eggless rolls to rise.

When following a recipe that calls for eggs, the eggs need to be omitted but replaced with a suitable substitute. In breads, eggs function to help the ingredients bind together and to change the bread's texture. The best substitute is a vegan egg replacer, which is specifically made to mimic the qualities of eggs. In order to replace one egg, one teaspoon of the replacer and two tablespoons of water should be added to the dough. Other common egg substitutes, such as oil, tofu, or banana should not be used in eggless rolls.

As with any type of baking, it is also important to heat the oven to the correct temperature when making eggless rolls. Depending on the recipe, the oven may need to be heated to any temperature between 300 and 450 degrees Fahrenheit (150 to 230 degrees Celsius) and the rolls baked for anywhere from 15 minutes to 30 minutes or so. The temperature and time should not be adjusted or the rolls may not cook evenly. It is also important to allow the oven to fully heat before placing the eggless rolls inside.
