Ingredients

• 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 1 cup Low-fat milk
• 0.5 cup Water
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 large Egg yolk
• 1 for greasing Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine the low-fat milk, water, and unsalted butter. Heat over low just until the butter melts, then remove from heat and let it cool until warm to the touch.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix well.

Step 3

Add the warm milk mixture to the flour mixture, then add the egg yolk. Stir until a soft dough forms.

Step 4

Gradually add the remaining flour, about half a cup at a time, kneading the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.

Step 5

Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover with a clean towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 60 minutes, or until doubled in size.

Step 6

Punch down the dough and turn it onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball.

Step 7

Arrange the dough balls in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, cover with the towel, and let rise again for about 30 minutes, or until doubled.

Step 8

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 9

Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your warm, fluffy, low-fat butter rolls!
