Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour (unbleached)
- 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast
- 1 ½ cups warm water (110°F)
- 2 tbsp sugar (brown sugar preferred)
- 1 tsp salt
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter (melted, plus more for brushing)
- ½ cup whole milk
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine warm water and sugar. Sprinkle yeast over the top and let it sit until frothy (5-10 minutes).
- In a large mixing bowl, mix flour and salt. Stir in melted butter and activated yeast mixture until a shaggy dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 1 hour).
- Punch down the risen dough; divide into equal pieces and shape each into a ball. Place them close together in a greased baking dish.
- Cover shaped rolls and let them rise until doubled again (30-45 minutes).
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Brush with melted butter after baking.
