Rolls

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Activate Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt together.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the yeast mixture. Add in the milk and melted butter. Mix until a dough forms.

  4. 4

    Knead the Dough

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  5. 5

    First Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

  6. 6

    Shape the Rolls

    Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place them in a greased baking dish.

  7. 7

    Second Rise

    Cover the rolls with a damp cloth and let them rise for another 30 minutes.

  8. 8

    Bake the Rolls

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

  9. 9

    Serve with Butter

    Let the rolls cool slightly before serving with softened butter.
