Description
I have this yummy super soft recipe that I have been using for my rolls, it is so easy and the rolls are honestly so soft and delicious. 10/10 reviews from the people!
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups warm milk
1 egg
60g butter – melted
2 tablespoons sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons instant dry yeast (I use Lowan)1 1/2 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 cups plain flour
Instructions
In a pyrex jug warm 1 1/2 cups milk – mine usually takes about 35-40 seconds on high, whisk to allow it to heat evenly, it should be warm and not hot
Add the sugar and whisk up mixture
Whisk 1 egg into the milk mixture and then add the melted butter whisk together
Add yeast, whisk and set aside in a warm spot for about 5 minutes until foamy
While the milk mixture is developing place the flour and salt in the bowl of your mix master and whisk the salt through
Add the dough attachment and add the milk mixture once it has become foamy, mix on medium until combined, you will need to scrape down sides and help it along a bit
Once combined mix for about 3 minutes
Turn mixture out onto a floured surface (the mixture will be very soft – this is how you want it)
Sprinkle flour on top and knead for about 1 minute, form mixture into a ball and place in an oiled large pyrex bowl, cover with glad wrap and allow to rise in a warm spot for 60 to 90 minutes, or until double in volume
Once it has risen punch out gas from dough and turn the dough out onto a floured surface
Divide bread into 12 – 15 pieces depending how big you want the rolls (15-18 for dinner rolls or 12 for normal burger buns)
I use a large rectangle pyrex dish to bake mine – I spray it with oil and then line with Glad Bake
Roll each piece of dough into a ball – to do this use a lightly floured surface and knead each piece into a ball
Place each ball into your lined tray allowing room for them to expand, they will join up eventually
Once you have rolled all the pieced cover with glad wrap and allow to raise for about 30 – 45 minutes in a warm place
Pre-heat oven to 190-200 degrees C (it will depend on your oven and may need a lower heat for fan forced)
Brush each bun with an egg wash when they are ready to go into the oven and sprinkle with sesame seeds if you like
Bake until golden brown
When you take them out of the oven brush the top of the rolls with some melted butter
Turn the rolls out onto a rack and cover them with a tea towel
Now the trick with rolls is to allow them to cool for about 20-30 minutes before serving, if you serve them straight out of the oven they may be a little doughy. When you serve them they will still be lovely and warm and just perfect, you will be amazed.
