Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 for greasing non-stick cooking spray or vegetable oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a standard 6-cup muffin pan into the oven while it preheats. The pan needs to be very hot to create the 'pop' effect.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined and frothy. This step ensures enough air is incorporated into the batter.
Gradually add the flour and salt to the egg mixture, whisking until the batter is smooth and lump-free. The batter will have a thin, pancake-like consistency.
Stir in the melted butter until fully incorporated.
Carefully remove the hot muffin pan from the oven. Lightly grease each muffin cup with non-stick cooking spray or a thin coat of vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
Quickly pour the batter evenly into the six muffin cups, filling each about halfway. Work quickly to ensure the pan stays hot.
Place the pan back into the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Do not open the oven door during this time as the rolls need the consistent high heat to rise properly.
After 20 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and puffy.
Remove the rolls from the oven and immediately transfer them to a cooling rack. Serve warm and enjoy with butter, jam, or as desired.
