Ingredients
For the Rolls:
1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
2 1/4 teaspoons (1 packet) active dry yeast
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 large egg
1 teaspoon salt
For the Honey Cinnamon Butter:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Recipe Directions
In a small bowl, combine the warm milk, yeast, and a pinch of sugar. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, melted butter, egg, salt, and the yeast mixture. Stir until a soft dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 20 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place them in a greased baking dish, leaving a little space between each roll.
Cover the rolls with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes, or until puffed up.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
While the rolls are baking, prepare the honey cinnamon butter. In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, honey, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Remove the rolls from the oven and brush them with melted butter while they’re still warm.
Serve the rolls with the honey cinnamon butter on the side for dipping.
