1️⃣ Activate the Yeast

  • Stir together warm milk, yeast, and a pinch of sugar. Let sit for 5–10 mins, until foamy.

2️⃣ Mix the Dough

  • In one bowl, combine flour and salt.
  • In another, whisk eggs and sugar.
  • Add yeast mixture to the egg mixture and stir.
  • Gradually blend wet into dry, then knead in softened butter until dough is smooth and elastic. (Stand mixer with dough hook = total win)

3️⃣ First Rise

  • Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and rise in a warm place for 1–2 hours until doubled in size.

4️⃣ Shape the Rolls

  • Punch down dough, divide into equal portions (12–16 rolls).
  • Shape into smooth balls and arrange on parchment-lined sheet.

5️⃣ Second Rise

  • Cover loosely and let rise for 30–60 mins until puffy.

6️⃣ Prep & Bake

  • Preheat oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
  • Mix egg wash and brush tops of rolls.
  • Bake for 15–20 mins, until golden and hollow-sounding when tapped.

7️⃣ Cool & Serve

  • Cool on wire rack before devouring (or slathering with jam). 🧈
