Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Warm water
- 1 cup Milk (low sodium or salt-free)
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 Egg
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt substitute (optional, low sodium)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, heat the milk until warm but not boiling. Remove from heat and stir in 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter until melted. Allow the mixture to cool until lukewarm.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, honey, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
Add the lukewarm milk-butter mixture, the egg, and the salt substitute (if using) to the yeast mixture. Stir until well combined.
Gradually add the all-purpose flour, 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Continue until the dough comes together and is slightly sticky but manageable.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll it out to about 1/2-inch thickness and cut it into 2x2 inch squares using a sharp knife or bench scraper.
Place the dough squares on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving some space between them. Cover with a towel and let them rise for an additional 30-45 minutes, or until puffed up.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
Brush the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter over the warm rolls as soon as they come out of the oven.
Serve warm and enjoy your low sodium Texas Roadhouse Rolls!
