Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
In a small saucepan over low heat, heat the milk until it is just warm to the touch (about 110°F or 43°C). Remove from heat and stir in the sugar and butter until melted and combined.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, active dry yeast, and salt. Mix well.
Add the warm milk mixture and water to the flour mixture. Stir until smooth.
Beat the egg into the mixture until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the remaining flour, about a half cup at a time, stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a soft dough that pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl (using the olive oil), turning the dough once to coat the surface. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.
Cover the rolls with a damp cloth and let them rise again until doubled, about 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
