Ingredients:
– 4 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 2 1/4 teaspoon active dry yeast
– 1 cup warm milk
– 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1 large egg
Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm milk, melted butter, and egg until well combined.
3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
4. Gradually add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough is smooth and elastic. You may not need to use all of the flour, so add it slowly and stop when the dough is no longer sticky.
5. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and springs back when touched.
6. Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning once to coat. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
7. Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Divide the dough into 16 equal pieces and shape them into balls.
8. Place the shaped dough balls on a greased baking sheet, cover with a kitchen towel, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
9. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown on top.
10. Remove the rolls from the oven and brush the tops with melted butter for a delicious finish.
