๐งพ Ingredients
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup warm milk
- 2 ¼ teaspoons (1 packet) instant yeast
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 4 tablespoons butter (softened)
๐ฉ๐ณ Instructions
Step 1: Activate the Yeast
In a bowl, combine warm milk and yeast. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.
Step 2: Make the Dough
Add sugar, egg, and softened butter to the yeast mixture. Mix well.
Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Step 3: Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Step 4: First Rise
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for 1–1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
Step 5: Shape the Rolls
Punch down the dough and divide it into equal portions. Shape into small rolls and place them on a lined baking tray.
Step 6: Second Rise
Cover and let the rolls rise again for 30–40 minutes until puffy.
Step 7: Bake
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake for 15–20 minutes or until golden brown on top.
Step 8: Serve
Brush with melted butter (optional) and serve warm. Enjoy soft, fluffy goodness!
๐ก Tips for Best Results
- Use warm (not hot) milk to activate the yeast properly.
- Don’t over-flour the dough; it should stay soft.
- Let the dough rise fully for extra fluffiness.
- Brush with butter after baking for a shiny, soft crust.
❓ FAQ
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the dough and refrigerate it overnight. Let it come to room temperature before baking.
Can I freeze the rolls?
Yes, freeze baked rolls for up to 2 months and reheat before serving.
Why are my rolls not soft?
This can happen if too much flour is added or the dough didn’t rise enough.
Can I use water instead of milk?
You can, but milk gives a softer and richer texture.
