Ingredients

• 1 cup Warm water
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
• 1 cup Milk
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 4 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Melted unsalted butter (for brushing)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.

Step 2

Sprinkle the yeast over the water and allow it to bloom for 5-10 minutes until foamy.

Step 3

In a microwave-safe bowl or small pot, heat the milk and 4 tablespoons of butter until the butter is melted. Allow the mixture to cool to lukewarm temperature.

Step 4

Add the milk-butter mixture and salt to the yeast mixture. Stir to combine.

Step 5

Gradually add the flour, one cup at a time, mixing with a wooden spoon or using a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment. Continue adding flour until a soft dough forms and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.

Step 6

Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. (If using a stand mixer, knead on medium speed for 3-4 minutes.)

Step 7

Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a greased bowl, turning the dough to coat it in the grease. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for 15 minutes.

Step 8

Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish or on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 9

Cover the rolls with the towel again and let them rise in a warm place for an additional 15 minutes, or until they have doubled in size.

Step 10

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 11

Bake the rolls for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown on top.

Step 12

Remove the rolls from the oven and brush the tops with melted butter for an extra soft, flavorful finish.

Step 13

Serve warm and enjoy these fluffy one-hour yeast rolls with butter, jam, or as a side to your favorite meal!
