Equipment

  • oven

Ingredients

  • 4 to 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup butter divided
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter to brush on baked rolls

Instructions

  • In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment combine 2 cups flour, sugar, undissolved yeast and salt. Mix on low until combined.
  • heat the milk, water, and 1/4 cup butter in 30 seconds increments until very warm to the touch (120°F to 130°F).
  • Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture. Mix on medium speed for 2 minutes.
  • Add in the egg and 1/2 cup flour and mix for 2 minutes at high speed. Stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. Dough should form a ball and be slightly sticky. Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes, or alternately, you can do this step in your mixer with a dough hook.
  • Cover the dough with a clean towel and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Divide the dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll each half to a 12-inch square, about 1/4-inch thick. Using a knife or a pizza cutter cut the dough into 6 (12 x 2- inch) strips. Then cut each strip into thirds (4 x 2-inch rectangles).
  • Melt the remaining 1/4 cup butter. Brush each rectangle with butter.
  • Crease each rectangle slightly off center with dull edge of knife and fold at crease, so it’s not quite folded in half.
  • Place the rolls onto the prepared baking sheet, short folded side facing down. Cover and place in a warm, draft-free place. Allow to rise for 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Serve warm.
