1
Combine Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and instant yeast until well combined.
2
Heat Milk and Butter
In a small saucepan, heat the milk and unsalted butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm (about 110°F or 43°C). Remove from heat.

3
Add Wet Ingredients
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the warm milk mixture and the egg. Mix together until a dough forms.
4
Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.

5
First Rise
Place the kneaded 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 doubled in size.

6
Shape the Rolls
Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball.
7
Second Rise
Place the shaped rolls into a greased baking dish, cover again with a towel, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
8
Preheat Oven
While the rolls are rising, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
9
Bake the Rolls
Once the rolls have risen, bake them in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
10
Cool and Serve
Remove the rolls from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes before serving warm.
