Prep Time: 30 minutes Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 cup warm whole milk
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour, divided
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (for brushing)
Instructions:
In a large bowl, combine the warm milk and yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes, or until foamy. Add 1 ½ cups of flour, the softened butter, sugar, egg, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix until combined.
Gradually add the remaining flour, 1/4 cup at a time, kneading until the dough is smooth and elastic, if it still sticky on the fingers add 1 tablespoon of flour and mix for two minutes. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Punch down the dough and divide into 15 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place on a greased baking sheet. Cover and let rise for 30-45 minutes, or until doubled in size.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Brush the warm rolls with melted butter for a shiny, buttery finish.
Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use a combination of white and whole wheat flour.
- You can add herbs like rosemary or thyme to the dough for a flavorful twist.
- To freeze the dough, shape the rolls and place them on a baking sheet. Freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. When ready to bake, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and bake as directed.
