Homemade Fluffy Dinner Rolls: An Incredible 7-Step Recipe


  • Author: Clara Walker
  • Total Time: 17 minute

Ingredients

– 4 cups all-purpose flour
– 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
– 1 packet (2¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast
– 1 ½ teaspoons salt
– 1 cup warm milk (110°F)
– ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
– 2 large eggs
– Extra flour for dusting
– Melted butter for brushing (optional)


Instructions

Creating homemade fluffy dinner rolls is a delightful process. Just follow these simple steps:

1. Proof the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and salt.

3. Combine Ingredients: Create a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add the melted butter, eggs, and yeast mixture.

4. Knead the Dough: Mix until the dough begins to form. Turn it out onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.

5. Let it Rise: Form the dough into a ball and place it in a greased bowl. Cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

6. Shape the Rolls: Punch down the risen dough and turn it out onto a floured surface. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place them in a greased baking dish.

7. Final Proving: Cover the shaped rolls with a cloth and let them rise for another 30 minutes, or until puffy.

8. Preheat the Oven: While the rolls are resting, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

9. Bake: Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter (if desired) and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.

10. Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly in the pan before serving warm.

These steps will guide you in creating amazing fluffy dinner rolls effortlessly!
