Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 cup slightly warm milk
- 3 tablespoons melted but not hot butter
- 1 beaten egg
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 1/4 teaspoon instant yeast
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Combine wet ingredients plus the yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer using the paddle attachment
- Add in flour a cup at a time, still using the paddle attachment
- Once fully incorporated, switch the dough hook and knead until dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl, approximately 10 minutes. The dough will remain quite sticky, this is normal.
- Cover and let dough rest in mixing bowl for an hour
- Punch down and turn dough out onto a board or countertop, it will still be somewhat sticky so use some bench flour to help keep everything together
- Portion into 12 equal pieces and place onto a half sheet pan (use a SILPAT if you have one). We use a scale, which comes to 2.5oz portions, but if that's too Bill Nye for you just make three equal pieces, cut each of those into two and then each of those into two.
- Cover and let rise for another hour, remembering to start pre-heating the oven to 350ยบ halfway through
- Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes
- (Brush with butter if desired)
Variations
- Mixing in whole wheat flour gives great flavor--start by substituting a quarter cup and see what ratio works for you
- This doesn't have to be rolls, you can make six sub style portions or even toss it into a loaf pan and make sandwich bread.
