Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Warm water
- 0.5 cup Whole milk
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 packet Active dry yeast
- 4 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 whole Egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons Additional melted butter
Instructions
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the warm water and milk. Heat until the mixture is warm to the touch, around 110°F (43°C).
Stir in the granulated sugar and sprinkle the active dry yeast on top. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until it’s foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the yeast mixture with 2 cups of the all-purpose flour, salt, melted butter, and the beaten egg.
Gradually add the remaining 2 cups of flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough back into the mixing bowl, cover it loosely with plastic wrap or a damp towel, and let it rise for 10 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a ball. Arrange the balls evenly in the prepared baking pan.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let the rolls rise for another 10 minutes until slightly puffy.
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
Remove the rolls from the oven and immediately brush the tops with the additional melted butter.
Serve warm and enjoy!
