Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package Active dry yeast
- 0.25 cup Warm water
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 0.25 cup Butter, melted
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 Egg
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2.75 cups All-purpose flour
Instructions
In a small bowl, dissolve the active dry yeast and 1 tablespoon of sugar in the warm water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy, indicating the yeast is active.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, sour cream, remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar, egg, and salt. Mix well to combine.
Pour the yeast mixture into the bowl with the wet ingredients, stirring until incorporated.
Gradually add the flour, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing with a spoon or dough hook attachment until a soft dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 6-8 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning it once to coat. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free spot for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place on a greased baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Cover the rolls with the towel again and let them rise for another 30-40 minutes, or until they are nearly double in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Remove the rolls from the oven and brush them with additional melted butter, if desired. Serve warm.
