Ingredients
Dough Ingredients
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 package (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup whole milk Warm, not hot
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter Melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
- In a small saucepan, heat the milk and butter until warm but not boiling.
- Add the warm milk mixture to the flour mixture and mix well.
- Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and knead the dough for about 5-10 minutes until soft and smooth.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with a cloth. Let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into small balls. Arrange the balls in a greased baking dish.
- Let the dough balls rise for another 30 minutes.
Baking
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and brush with melted butter before serving.
Notes
Make sure your milk is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast properly. Knead the dough well for a light and fluffy texture. For an extra sweet touch, add a bit of honey to the dough. If you like softer rolls, place them close together in the baking dish.
