These are some of the best rolls I have ever made. The taste and texture is like they came from a restaurant! I found this recipe online, on a blog named The Sisters Dish, and she said she adapted the recipe from her friend, Molly. Note: Prep time includes time for the dough to rise.
Ingredients:
1 (2 1/4 teaspoon) package active dry yeast
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup warm water (about 110 degrees f)
1 cup milk, warmed to lukewarm
1/3 cup oil
1 egg
1/2 tablespoon salt
all-purpose flour (i think i use about 5 cups)
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Directions:
1. In a mixer (or by hand), combine the yeast, sugar, and warm water; let grow until bubbly (about 5 minutes).
2. Add milk and mix.
3. Mix in oil and egg.
4. Slowly add 2 cups flour, mix, and then add salt.
5. Add 1/2 cup flour at a time until the dough pulls away from the side of the bowl.
6. Lightly spray the dough with cooking spray, and let rise in a covered mixing bowl for about 30 minutes.
7. On a floured surface, form rolls (they will each be 2 oz., if you weigh the dough like I do) as desired, and place on a lightly greased or parchment-lined jelly roll pan (or rimmed cookie sheet). Cover with plastic wrap, and let rise an additional 30 minutes.
8. Bake at 400 degrees for 18-20 minutes (the original recipe said 10-12 minutes, but I found mine needed about 18 minutes for 24 rolls on a jelly roll pan).
9. You can rotate the pan halfway through, if you'd like, but I don't.
10. Brush hot rolls with melted butter.
