Soft Fluffy Dinner Rolls
Ingredients:
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 1/4 teaspoons (1 packet) active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup warm water (110°F/45°C)
- 1/2 cup warm milk (110°F/45°C)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (for brushing)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Yeast Mixture:
- In a small bowl, dissolve the granulated sugar in the warm water and milk. Sprinkle the active dry yeast over the top and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, until frothy.
- Mix the Dough:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture, melted butter, and eggs. Stir until a dough forms.
- Knead the Dough:
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, until smooth and elastic. If using a stand mixer, knead with the dough hook attachment on medium speed for about 6-8 minutes.
- First Rise:
- Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Shape the Rolls:
- Punch down the dough to release the air. Divide the dough into 12-16 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball. Place the balls in a greased baking pan, spaced slightly apart.
- Second Rise:
- Cover the rolls with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let them rise in a warm place for about 30-45 minutes, or until puffy and touching each other.
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake the Rolls:
- Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
- Final Touch:
- Remove the rolls from the oven and brush them with additional melted butter for a shiny, soft crust.
- Serve:
- Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature.
Tips:
- Ensure the liquids (water and milk) are at the correct temperature to activate the yeast properly.
- The dough should be soft but not sticky; adjust with small amounts of flour or water as needed.
Enjoy your soft and fluffy dinner rolls!
