Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 packet active dry yeast
- 1 cup warm milk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3.5 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy, which indicates that the yeast is activated.
Add the warm milk, melted butter, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix to combine.
Gradually add the flour, one cup at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Once the dough comes together, turn it out onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is 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 30 minutes, or until it doubles in size.
Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place them on a greased baking sheet or a baking dish, spacing them slightly apart.
Cover the rolls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise for an additional 15-20 minutes, until puffy.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Once the rolls have risen, bake them in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Remove the rolls from the oven and brush with additional melted butter, if desired. Let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm!
