Soft Dinner Rolls Recipe

Ingredients:

• 4 cups (500g) all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
• ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons instant yeast
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup (240ml) milk, warmed (about 110°F/43°C)
• ¼ cup (60g) unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of flour, sugar, instant yeast, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the warm milk, melted butter, and egg until well combined.
3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until a sticky dough forms.
4. Gradually add the remaining flour, mixing until the dough comes together. You may need more or less flour, depending on humidity.
5. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes, until it’s smooth and elastic.
6. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
7. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
8. Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball.
9. Place the dough balls in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spacing them slightly apart.
10. Cover the dish with a towel and let the rolls rise for another 30-45 minutes, until puffed.
11. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
12. Optional: Brush the tops with melted butter immediately after baking for extra softness.

Enjoy!
