Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.25 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 0.25 cups warm water
- 1 cups sour cream
- 0.25 cups granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups unsalted butter, melted
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (for brushing)
Instructions
In a small bowl, dissolve the active dry yeast in the warm water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine sour cream, granulated sugar, melted butter, eggs, and salt. Mix well.
Add the yeast mixture to the sour cream mixture and stir to combine.
Gradually add the flour, one cup at a time, mixing after each addition until a soft dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a floured surface. Divide it into 12 equal portions.
Shape each portion into a ball and place them onto a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
Cover the rolls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise again for about 30-40 minutes, or until they have doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
Remove the rolls from the oven and brush the tops with melted butter while they are still warm.
Let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them fresh and warm!
