Extra soft dinner rolls

Ingredient

1/4 cup

AP flour (plus 1/2-1 cup more)

1 tsp

unsalted butter, for the bottom of the baking dish & top of the rolls

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Take 1/4 cup unsalted butter and slice it as thin as you can, add the slices to the bottom of a stand mixer. Add ¼ cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon kosher salt to the mixer. Take out egg and beat it so it will slowly be at room temperature.

* Step 2

Warm 1 ¼ cups whole milk milk in a microwave safe bowl in the microwave. I like to do this in 30 second intervals. The temperature of the milk should be between 105-110°F (do not warm to over 110°F). Pour 1 cup of the warm milk into the bowl with the butter, no need to stir, just let it sit. Add 2 ¼ teaspoons (1 packet) active dry yeast to the remaining 1/4 cup milk and give it a stir. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, until foamy.

* Step 3

Add this mixture to the mixer. Add in 1 large egg, beaten and stir everything to combine.

* Step 4

Using a stand mixer, attach the hook attachment, start stirring in 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour (one cup at a time), scrape down the sides as needed.

* Step 5

Do this until you add 3 and ½ cups of flour. Once the mixture resembles a dough, turn the speed to medium-high and start to knead it. If the dough doesn’t start to cleanly pull away from the sides of the bowl, add a little flour at a time (up to a half cup) until the sides of the bowl are clean, if the dough is still attached at the very bottom of the bowl that’s okay. Continue to knead for 3 minutes.

* Step 6

In a large bowl, add the vegetable oil. Take the dough out of the mixer and add it to the bowl with the oil, turn it around in the oil so it is coated. Cover with plastic wrap or a tea towel and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours until doubled in size.

* Step 7

Melt the remaining ¼ cup of butter. Brush a 9″x 13″ baking dish with some of the butter, you will only need a small amount, set aside. Punch down the dough to release the air bubbles.

* Step 8

Lay some flower down on your counter, take out dough and roll around in it, you may want to flour your hands. Divide the dough into 15 sections. Take each dough ball with your hands and stretch it out, tuck the ends of the dough around itself to form a smooth ball and pinch the seams together. Gently roll it between your hands to form a ball.

* Step 9

Place the ball seam side down into the prepared baking dish, 5 rows of 3 rolls. Cover again with plastic wrap or a tea towel and let them double in size, about 1 hour. When there is about 15 minutes left, preheat oven to 350.

* Step 10

Uncover your baking dish and cook for 20-25 minutes until the tops are golden brown, and when tapped, the rolls sound hollow. Immediately brush the rest of the butter all over the hot rolls.
