Easy Flaky Dinner Rolls
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Whole milk Warm
- 2 1/2 teaspoons Yeast
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 large Eggs
- 4 Cups All purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 4 tablespoons Butter Room Temp
- 2 tablespoons Butter Melted
Instructions
- 1. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine MILK, YEAST, HONEY, EGGS, FLOUR and SALT. Using a dough hook, mix until the flour is completely incorporated, about 4 – 5 minutes. Add 2 teaspoons melted BUTTER and mix until combined, about 2 – 3 minutes more.
- 2. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- 3. Grease a 9 x 13” baking dish with BUTTER.
- 4. Punch dough down and roll out on a slightly floured surface into a large rectangle about ¼” thick. Spread remaining 4 tablespoons of softened BUTTER all over dough, being careful to not break through the dough with butter.
- 5. Fold one half of the rectangle towards the center and the other over the top of the first. You should now have three layers. Cut into 12 equal squares. Arrange in the prepared baking dish. Cover pan and let rolls rise for about 45 minutes to an hour, until they are puffy. Alternatively, you can place the pan in the fridge to rise overnight.
- 6. Preheat oven to 350. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until they are golden brown on top.
- 7. Remove from oven, brush with melted butter, sprinkle with salt, if desired. Pull apart and serve warm.
