These soft, airy breakfast rolls are perfect for make-ahead mornings. Lightly sweetened and golden-baked, they are easy to prepare in advance and reheat for a warm start to your day.

  • Total Time: 2 hours
  • Yield: 12 rolls

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine yeast, sugar, and warm milk. Let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add melted butter and eggs to the yeast mixture. Mix well.
  3. Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  4. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
  5. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
  6. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Punch down the dough and divide into 12 equal pieces.
  7. Shape each piece into a roll and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  8. Cover and let rise for 20-30 minutes.
  9. Bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm or make ahead and reheat.

Notes

  • Reheat rolls in an oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes for best texture.
