Provided by Natalya Drozhzhin

Categories     Easy

Time 3h40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 cup whole milk (warmed to 110F)
4 Tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
1 Tbsp active dry yeast
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 1/4 tsp salt ((we used fine sea salt))
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp unsalted butter (melted to brush the tops of dinner rolls)
1/2 tsp kosher salt (to sprinkle finished rolls)

Steps:

  • In the bowl of your mixer, whisk together warm milk (about 110F) and 1 Tbsp sugar. Sprinkle the top with 1 Tbsp yeast and let sit 1 minute. Whisk together and let it sit for about 5 minutes until yeast looks foamy. Add 4 Tbsp melted butter, remaining sugar and salt.
  • Add flour half a cup at a time until the dough whisking to incorporate. Once the dough gets too thick, switch to the dough hook attachment and mix on speed 2 (you can also continue mixing by hand with a stiff spatula). Add about 4 cups of flour, adding the last 1 to 3 Tbsp of flour only if needed. The dough should feel sticky and tacky but should not stick to clean/dry finger tips.
  • Knead the dough with the dough hook in a stand mixer for 2 minutes or knead by hand (10 min), then place dough in an oiled bowl. Cover it with plastic wrap and let it rise about 2 hours in a warm place or until doubled in size.
  • Once the dough rises, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and cut it into 15-24 even pieces depending on the shape of your baking dish. Roll each piece of dough into a ball and place them onto an oiled 9x13 casserole dish or baking sheet.
  • Cover the dinner rolls with plastic wrap and let them rise another 30-60 minutes in a warm place or until puffed (do not over-proof). Bake at 375F for about 23-25 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
  • Immediately brush tops of dinner rolls with melted butter and set aside to cool to room temperature before serving.

Categories     side-dish

Time 3h

Yield 24 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/3 cups whole milk
2 sticks (16 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup warm water, about 110 degrees F
One 1/4-ounce package active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
5 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting (see Cook's Note)
Nonstick cooking spray
Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium-high until it just starts to simmer, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter and the sugar until melted. Set aside to cool.
  • Put the warm water in a small liquid measuring cup and stir in the yeast. Let it sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Combine the milk mixture, yeast mixture, eggs, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and half the flour in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Mix on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Slowly add the remaining flour, mixing until a smooth ball forms. Increase the speed to medium-high and continue to knead the dough until very smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Coat a large bowl with nonstick cooking spray, then place the dough inside. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 60 to 75 minutes.
  • Melt the remaining 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Set aside.
  • Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray, line with parchment paper then spray the paper.
  • Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour. Punch down the dough and turn it out onto the prepared surface. Pat into an even thickness.
  • Use a chef's knife or bench scraper to divide the dough into 24 pieces, then shape into balls to create small rolls. Place in the prepared baking dish in rows of 4 by 6, then brush the tops of the rolls with 4 tablespoons of the melted butter. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled in size, 30 to 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven 350 degrees F.
  • Remove the plastic wrap and sprinkle the rolls lightly with flaky sea salt. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with the remaining 4 tablespoons melted butter. Serve warm.

Provided by Katie Aubin

Categories     Breakfast

Time 50m

Yield 9 cinnamon rolls

Number Of Ingredients 15

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
5 ¼ cups all purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 ¾ cups whole milk, warm to the touch
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
1 large egg
½ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons instant yeast
1 ¼ cups brown sugar
½ stick unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon cinnamon
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch square baking dish with nonstick spray.
  • Make the dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour, milk, melted butter, egg, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and yeast. Mix with a rubber spatula until a shaggy dough forms. Turn out onto a clean surface and knead for about 1 minute, until mostly smooth and the dough springs back when poked. Return the dough to the bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let rest while you make the filling.
  • Make the filling: In a medium bowl, mix together the brown sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon until combined.
  • Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to a 12 x 16-inch rectangle.
  • Spread the filling evenly over the dough. Starting with a the long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut the log into 9 even pieces.
  • Transfer the cinnamon rolls to the prepared baking pan. Bake for 25 minutes, until light golden brown around the edges.
  • While the cinnamon rolls bake, make the frosting: In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
  • Let the cinnamon rolls cool for 10 minutes, then cover with the frosting.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use warm milk for the dough, as this will help the yeast activate and rise more quickly. Ensure the milk is warm but not hot, as hot milk can kill the yeast.
  • If you don't have a stand mixer, you can make the dough by hand. Just be sure to knead it well for at least 5 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will usually take about an hour. You can tell the dough has risen enough when you poke it with your finger and the indentation remains.
  • When shaping the rolls, be sure to pinch the edges together well so that they don't come apart during baking.
  • Brush the rolls with melted butter before baking. This will help them brown and give them a nice shine.
  • Bake the rolls until they are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped.

Conclusion:

These 40-minute dinner rolls are the perfect addition to any meal. They are light and fluffy, with a slightly crispy crust. They are also incredibly easy to make, so you can have fresh, homemade rolls on the table in no time. Whether you are serving them with dinner, soup, or stew, these rolls are sure to be a hit.
