Homemade Dinner Rolls

Langkah-langkah

1. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.

2. Measure the honey into a glass measuring cup or heat-proof bowl and microwave for 15 seconds, until warm and loose (this helps it dissolve).

3. In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the dough hook or a large mixing bowl, stir together the honey and water (be sure to check it's temp, preferably with an instant read thermometer! It should feel warm but not hot) until the honey is dissolved. Add 3½ cups flour, butter, 1 egg, yeast, and salt.

4. If using a stand mixer: Turn the hook on medium-low speed, and knead until the dough is uniform, soft, and smooth, adding more flour if necessary (I used about 1/4 cup), until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl, about 3 minutes.

5. If not using a stand mixer, once you have a shaggy dough, turn it out onto a clean work surface and knead until it comes together and is no longer sticky, adding flour as necessary (I added about ¼ cup).

6. Place the kneaded dough into a clean, greased bowl (or remove the dough from the mixing bowl, spray the bowl with nonstick spray, and return the dough to the same mixing bowl). Cover with a dish towel. Let rise somewhere warm for 15 minutes, until the dough looks puffy.

7. Make a fist and gently punch down the dough to deflate it. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces (about 2.7 ounces each). On a clean work surface, roll the pieces into tight balls under your palm: using one hand, roll each ball of dough on the counter in a circular motion until they are smooth and taught. Arrange the balls in the prepared baking dish. Preheat the oven to 400°F.

8. Cover the dish with a clean dish towel and let the dough rise somewhere warm until puffy, about 15 minutes.

9. Beat the remaining egg in a small bowl until smoothly blended.

10. Uncover the dish, brush the rolls with the beaten egg, and sprinkle with flaky salt. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Place the baking dish on a wire rack and let cool in the baking dish for 10 minutes before serving.
