Ingredients
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 1/2 cups warm water
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup milk
- Cooking spray
Instructions
- In the bowl of your stand mixer, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Allow it to rest for approximately 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
- Add melted butter, salt, and 3 cups of flour to the yeast mixture. Mix on low speed until combined.
- Gradually add the remaining 1 cup of flour and continue to knead the dough with the dough hook attachment until it's smooth and elastic about 5-7 minutes.
- Form the dough into a round shape and position it in a bowl that has been coated with grease. Cover with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel. Allow it to rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Gently deflate the fully risen dough and separate it into 12 evenly sized portions. Shape each piece into a ball and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the bread rolls with milk and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Let them cool on a wire rack while removing from the oven.
