Ingredients

Scale

Dough Ingredients

  • 1 cup Warm Milk (about 110°F)
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons Active Dry Yeast (1 packet)
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar
  • 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter, melted
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 3 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Salt

Cinnamon Honey Butter

  • 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Activate the Yeast: Warm the milk to about 110°F to create the ideal environment for yeast activation. Stir in the sugar and active dry yeast, then let the mixture sit for 5 to 10 minutes until foamy, indicating the yeast is active and ready.
  2. Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the warm yeast mixture with melted butter and the egg. Gradually add the flour and salt while mixing until a soft dough forms that is slightly sticky but manageable.
  3. Knead the Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth and elastic, developing the gluten structure essential for fluffy and chewy rolls.
  4. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 to 1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
  5. Shape Rolls: Punch down the risen dough and divide it into equal portions. Shape each piece into smooth spheres and place them close together in a greased baking dish to encourage soft sides.
  6. Second Rise: Cover the shaped rolls and let them rise again for 30 to 45 minutes until puffy, ensuring a light and airy texture when baked.
  7. Bake and Glaze: Bake the rolls in a preheated 350°F oven for 15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown. While still warm, brush them generously with the cinnamon honey butter for the signature flavor and glaze.

Notes

  • Make sure your milk is warm, not hot, to avoid killing the yeast and to ensure proper rise.
  • Knead the dough until elastic but avoid overworking it to keep rolls tender.
  • Place rolls close together in the pan to create soft, pull-apart sides.
  • Apply cinnamon honey butter glaze while rolls are still warm for best absorption and flavor.
  • Use fresh yeast and check expiration for best results and proper rise.
