Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water
- 2.25 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (for brushing)
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the warm water, active dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon of the sugar. Stir gently and let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
In a saucepan over low heat, warm the milk and 4 tablespoons of butter until the butter is just melted. Remove from heat and let cool to lukewarm.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar, and the salt. Pour in the yeast mixture and the lukewarm milk mixture, stirring until combined.
Gradually add the flour, one cup at a time, and mix until a sticky dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Add a small amount of flour if necessary to prevent sticking.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm, draft-free place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a smooth ball and place on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Cover the rolls with a clean towel and let rise again for 30-40 minutes, or until puffy.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
Remove the rolls from the oven and brush the tops generously with the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter while still warm.
Let the rolls cool slightly and serve warm with butter or your favorite spread.
