Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 1.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Honey (for glaze)
- 1 tablespoons Milk (for glaze)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, heat the milk and butter together over low heat until the butter is melted. Allow the mixture to cool until warm to the touch (around 110°F).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, instant yeast, and 1 tablespoon of honey. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes, or until foamy.
Add the cooled milk and butter mixture, the remaining honey, and the egg to the yeast mixture. Mix well until combined.
Gradually add the flour and salt to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook for 6-8 minutes.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Take each portion and divide it into 4 smaller pieces; shape each piece into a ball and arrange them in a cluster of 4 on a parchment-lined baking sheet, forming the shape of a flower. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let them rise again for 30-40 minutes, or until puffy.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and milk for the glaze. Brush the glaze over the tops of the rolls before baking.
Bake the rolls for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and baked through.
Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
