Recipe preparation

Essential Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:

  • All-Purpose Flour: This versatile flour gives the rolls their chewy texture; I usually use unbleached for better flavor.
  • Active Dry Yeast: Look for fresh yeast to ensure proper rising; expired yeast can turn your rolls into sad little hockey pucks.
  • Warm Water: Ideally around 110°F (43°C); too hot will kill the yeast, while too cold will leave them sad and flat.
  • Granulated Sugar: Just a touch helps activate the yeast and adds a hint of sweetness to balance flavors.
  • Salt: A crucial ingredient that enhances overall taste; don’t skip it unless you want bland rolls.
  • Butter: Use unsalted butter for richness; melted butter adds an irresistible flavor that makes these rolls unforgettable. blueberry coffee cake.
  • Your Choice of Fillings: Options include cheese, ham, or veggies; let your imagination run wild!

Let’s Make it Together

Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine warm water and sugar. Stir in active dry yeast and let it sit until foamy—about 5-10 minutes—this means it’s alive and ready!

Mix the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Create a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture along with melted butter. Mix until combined.

Knead Away!: Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. You want it to feel soft but not sticky; it should bounce back when poked.

Let it Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover it with plastic wrap or a damp cloth. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size—about 1 hour. Patience is key here!

Shape Your Rolls: Punch down the risen dough gently to release air. Divide into equal pieces and shape each piece into rolls or fill with your choice of fillings before rolling up.

Bake to Perfection!: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 20-25 minutes until golden brown and deliciously aromatic.

Now that you’ve created these heavenly Breakfast Rolls, let them cool slightly before serving—and maybe grab one while they’re still warm because who can resist?

Enjoy these delightful bites at breakfast, brunch, or even as an afternoon snack! They’re sure to bring smiles all around as they did during my Sunday gatherings. For more inspiration, check out this Easy Apple Fritter Bites recipe.
