Ingredients

  • 4 cups All purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons rapid rise instant yeast
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1½ cups warm milk 110 degrees F

Method

Cover with a towel and let rise for an additional 30 minutes at room temperature. Brush with an egg wash (optional) if you want them to be shiny.
  9. 9. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake the rolls for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
