Step-by-step
- Mix all ingredients in a large bowl, cover and let the dough rest for 5 minutes.
- Knead the dough by hand right in the bowl for about 2-3 minutes. The dough should be soft slightly tacky, but not not sticky. If the dough is sticky, let it rest for another 10 minutes and then knead again for 1-2 minutes. As the flour in the dough absorbs more water the stickiness will go away.
- Cover the bowl with a damp kitchen towel or saran wrap and place in warm place for 1.5 hours to rise. The dough needs to double in size. If not, let it continue to rise until it does.
- Divide the dough into 15 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball. Some flour can be added in this step if the dough is too sticky, but normally this is not needed.
- Grease your palms with soft butter and butter each dough ball. This will allow better separation of the yeast rolls after they are baked and help with browning.
- Place the dough balls in a well-greased 10 x 14 inch cake pan, arranging them into 5 rows of 3.
- Cover the pan with a damp towel or saran wrap and proof for 40 minutes in warm place
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Whisk one whole egg with a teaspoon of cold water or milk until well blended. Brush the tops of the dough balls with a light, even coat of egg wash.
- Place the pan in the oven and bake for 25-27 minutes until golden brown.
- Serve and enjoy!
The Day My Yeast Rolls Disappeared (Almost!)
Baking has always been my sanctuary, a quiet corner where I can lose myself in the rhythmic kneading, the comforting warmth of the oven, and the sheer joy of creating something delicious from humble ingredients. Today, I want to share a recipe that’s become a staple in my kitchen, a recipe that's almost too easy, yet produces results so impressive, they're practically magical.

A Word About Ingredients
While the recipe calls for specific types of flour and yeast, feel free to experiment. I often substitute different types of flour depending on what I have on hand, and the results are always delicious. The key is to use good quality ingredients and pay attention to the consistency of the dough. Remember to maintain patience during the proofing times. Sometimes a slight delay in rising is necessary. Do not panic if the dough is not ready in the exact amount of time given.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these rolls warm, right out of the oven. They’re perfect alongside soups, stews, or salads. They also pair well with savory dishes like roasted chicken or grilled meats. A little butter or honey adds extra flavor, but honestly, they're delicious all on their own.
