Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water (110°F/43°C)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast by combining warm water and sugar in a small bowl. Sprinkle yeast on top and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt.
  3. Add melted butter and activated yeast mixture to the flour. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
  4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a towel, and let rise in a warm place for about an hour or until doubled in size.
  6. After rising, gently punch down the dough, divide into equal pieces, shape into balls, and place on a greased baking sheet.
  7. Cover again and let rise for another 30 minutes while preheating the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  8. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm with butter.

Keywords: For added flavor, consider mixing in herbs such as rosemary or garlic powder into the dough. You can substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a nuttier flavor profile. Store leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or freeze them for up to three months.
