• 1 tbsp instant yeast (or active dry yeast)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Activate yeast (if needed)
   If using active dry yeast, mix it with the warm milk and a teaspoon of sugar. Let it sit 5–10 minutes until foamy.

2. Mix dough
   In a stand mixer with a dough hook (or by hand):

   • Combine flour, sugar, salt, and yeast (if instant).

   • Add warm milk and eggs. Mix until combined.

   • Gradually add softened butter, a few pieces at a time, until incorporated.

   • Knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth and elastic (it will be slightly sticky).

3. First rise
   Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm spot for 1½–2 hours, or until doubled.

4. Shape rolls
   Punch down dough and divide into 8–10 equal pieces. Shape into smooth balls and place on a lined baking sheet or in a greased baking dish.

5. Second rise
   Cover loosely and let rise again for 45–60 minutes until puffy.

6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

7. Brush and bake
   Brush rolls with egg wash. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until golden brown and internal temp reaches 190°F (88°C).

8. Cool slightly before serving.

✅ Tips

• Make ahead: Shape the rolls and refrigerate overnight. Let them rise at room temp before baking.

• Add-ins: Chocolate chips, dried fruit, or a cinnamon swirl for sweet rolls.

• Softest texture: Use bread flour or add 1 tbsp milk powder for extra tenderness.
