Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups All-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 1.25 cups Milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Butter (melted, for brushing)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast until well combined.
In a small saucepan, heat the milk and unsalted butter over low heat until the butter has melted. Allow the mixture to cool to lukewarm (around 100-110°F).
Add the lukewarm milk mixture and the egg to the dry ingredients. Stir until a sticky dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes, or until it becomes soft, smooth, and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook on medium speed for 5-7 minutes.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel, and refrigerate overnight (or up to 24 hours).
The next day, remove the dough from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature (about 30 minutes).
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide it into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a smooth ball.
Arrange the dough balls in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish or on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let the rolls rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until they have nearly doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
Remove the rolls from the oven and immediately brush them with melted butter.
Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
