Fluffy Bread Rolls
These light, pillowy homemade bread rolls yield the softest, fluffiest texture you'll ever taste—perfect for dinner sides, weekend breakfast, or anytime you crave fresh bread.
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour plus more for dusting
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
- 1 cup whole milk warmed to 110°F
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoon salt Kosher or sea salt
- 1 large egg room temperature
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast; let it sit for 5–7 minutes until foamy.
- Add melted butter, salt, and egg to the yeast mixture; stir until smooth and well combined.
- Gradually add flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough forms and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
- Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic (or use a stand mixer with dough hook for 6–7 minutes).
- Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour or until doubled.
- Punch down dough, divide into 12 pieces, and shape each into a smooth ball, pinching seams underneath.
- Arrange on greased sheet, cover loosely, and let rise 30–45 minutes until puffy.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake rolls for 15–18 minutes or until golden brown.
- Brush hot rolls with melted butter and let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
For extra flavor, sprinkle herbs or coarse salt on top before baking. Leftover rolls freeze well for up to 3 months in a sealed bag.
