Ingredients (makes ~12 rolls):

3 ½ cups all-purpose flour (plus more for kneading)

1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeas1 cup warm milk (about 110°F / 43°C)

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 tsp salt

1 egg

¼ cup unsalted butter, softened (plus extra for brushing)

Instructions:

In a bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.

In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture, egg, and softened butter. Stir to combine, then knead by hand (8–10 minutes) or with a mixer (5–6 minutes) until dough is soft and smooth.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1–1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.

Punch down the dough and divide into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place them in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish or round pan.

Cover and let the rolls rise for another 30–45 minutes, until puffy.

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake rolls for 15–18 minutes or until golden on top.

Brush with melted butter while warm.

Optional: sprinkle with sea salt or garlic butter.
