Ingredients
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup milk, warmed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3 large eggs
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- Add melted butter, eggs, and salt to the yeast mixture and stir until combined.
- Gradually add flour, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces, shaping each into a ball.
- Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, cover, and let rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Beat the additional egg and brush over the rolls.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.
