  • Author: Miya
  • Total Time: 0 hours

Ingredients

– 4 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 packet (2 ¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast
– 1 cup warm milk (110°F / 43°C)
– ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
– ¼ cup granulated sugar
– 2 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon salt
– Additional melted butter for brushing


Instructions

Follow these steps to create your Easy Big Fat Yeast Rolls:

1. Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, until foamy.

2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and salt. Once mixed, add the activated yeast mixture.

3. Combine Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the flour, one cup at a time, stirring until a dough forms.

4. Knead the Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.

5. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and allow it to rise in a warm place for about 30-40 minutes until doubled in size.

6. Shape the Rolls: Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a round ball and place them in a greased baking dish.

7. Second Rise: Cover the rolls with a towel and allow them to rise again for 30 minutes, until puffy.

8. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

9. Bake: Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown on top.

10. Brush with Butter: Remove rolls from the oven and immediately brush the tops with melted butter for that irresistible finish.
