Ingredients
Scale
- 4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup warm water (110°F/43°C)
- 2 cups scalded milk, cooled to lukewarm
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 7 to 8 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (for cinnamon butter)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for cinnamon butter)
- 1/4 cup honey (for cinnamon butter)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for cinnamon butter)
Instructions
- Dissolve yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in warm water. Let it sit until foamy (5-10 minutes).
- In a large bowl, mix together lukewarm milk, remaining sugar, melted butter, egg, and salt until smooth.
- Add the yeast mixture and 3 cups of flour. Blend until smooth.
- Incorporate remaining flour, adding 1 cup at a time until a soft dough forms.
- Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled (about 1 hour).
- Punch down the dough and roll out onto a floured surface to 1/2 inch thick.
- Cut into 2-inch squares and place on greased baking sheets.
- Cover and let rise again until doubled (about 45 minutes).
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
- While baking, whisk together softened butter, powdered sugar, honey, and cinnamon until fluffy.
- Brush baked rolls with additional melted butter and serve warm with cinnamon-honey butter.
Notes
For best results, ensure your yeast is active. You can also prepare the dough in advance and let it rise in the refrigerator overnight.
