These Soft & Fluffy Dinner Rolls are light, fluffy, and slightly buttery, making them perfect for pairing with soups, stews, or enjoying warm with a pat of butter. They’re simple to make and a great addition to any dinner table.
In a small bowl, combine warmed milk, granulated sugar, yeast and give it a stir. Set aside until the yeast starts to activate and become bubbly.
In a stand mixer bowl, combine flour, melted butter, egg, salt and yeast mixture and knead until a dough starts to form.
Continue kneading (about 10-15 minutes) until the dough comes together and is elastic and smooth. It will be a little on the sticky side, but it will come together as you knead it.
Remove the dough from the mixer bowl and place into a lightly greased bowl.
Cover and leave in a warm location until doubled in size.
Shape:
Once risen, punch down the dough, divide and shape into 12 round balls, about 60g each.
Place the shaped dough balls onto a parchment lined 9" by 13" baking tray.
Cover and leave to proof until almost doubled in size, about 20-30 minutes, depending on how warm your kitchen is.
Bake:
Preheat oven to 350°F/177°C.
Bake at 350°F/177°C for 18-20 mins, or until an instant-read thermometer reads 200°F in the middle of the buns.
Remove from oven and cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm and fresh.
