Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
- ¾ cup warm water (110°F / 43°C)
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- ½ cup whole milk
Instructions
- Activate the yeast by mixing warm water with sugar in a bowl. Sprinkle yeast over the mixture and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Combine this with the yeast mixture, melted butter, and milk until a sticky dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm spot for approximately 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough gently, shape into small balls, and arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Let rise again for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake rolls for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
