Method

For the Parker House Rolls

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a small bowl, combine the warm milk (110°F to 115°F) with the active dry yeast and granulated sugar. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, until frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Create a well in the center and add the yeast mixture, melted butter (reserve 2 tablespoons for brushing), and eggs. Mix until a dough forms.

  3. 3

    Knead the Dough

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

  4. 4

    First Rise

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

  5. 5

    Shape the Rolls

    Punch down the risen dough and turn it out onto a floured surface. Divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and then flatten slightly. Fold the edges over to the center and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.

  6. 6

    Second Rise

    Cover the rolls with a towel and let them rise again for 30 minutes, until puffy.

  7. 7

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  8. 8

    Bake the Rolls

    Brush the tops of the rolls with the reserved melted butter. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

  9. 9

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

For the Maple Butter

  1. 10

    Prepare the Maple Butter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter and pure maple syrup. Mix until well combined and smooth.

  2. 11

    Serve

    Transfer the maple butter to a serving dish and serve alongside the warm Parker House rolls.
