Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 0.25 cup Sugar
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Milk (low-fat or whole)
- 1 cup Raisins
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon Salt
- 0 as needed Cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
In a small saucepan, heat the milk over low heat until it reaches about 110°F (43°C). Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of sugar. Add the yeast to the mixture and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until foamy.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, the remaining sugar, and salt. Once the yeast is foamy, add the yeast mixture, melted unsalted butter, egg, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients.
Step 3
Use a wooden spoon or stand mixer with a dough hook to mix the ingredients until a sticky dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes, either manually on a lightly floured surface or using the mixer on medium speed, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Gently knead in the raisins by hand, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 5
Lightly coat a large bowl with cooking spray and place the dough inside, turning it once to coat with a thin layer of oil. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free area for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Step 6
Punch down the risen dough to release excess air. Turn it out onto a floured surface and divide it into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spaced about 1 inch apart.
Step 7
Cover the rolls with a damp cloth again and allow them to rise for an additional 30 minutes.
Step 8
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) while the rolls are rising.
Step 9
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature.
