- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
- 1 cup warm water (110°F / 43°C)
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter (melted) + extra for brushing
Instructions
- Activate the yeast by combining warm water and sugar in a bowl; sprinkle yeast on top. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and melted butter, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Transfer the kneaded dough to a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough, divide it into twelve pieces, and shape each into a ball.
- Place shaped rolls on a greased baking tray, cover again, and allow them to rise for another 30 minutes while preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown; brush with melted butter immediately after baking.
