Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup warm milk (105-115°F)
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • For the Cinnamon Honey Butter:
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Whisk in the eggs and melted butter.
  3. Add salt and 2 cups of the flour. Mix until just combined.
  4. Gradually add the remaining 2 cups of flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  6. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  7. Punch down the dough and divide it into 12-16 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball.
  8. Arrange the dough balls in a greased 9×13 inch baking pan, leaving a little space between them.
  9. Cover the pan and let the rolls rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until puffy.
  10. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  11. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  12. While the rolls bake, prepare the cinnamon honey butter: In a small bowl, cream together softened butter, honey, cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
  13. Brush the warm rolls generously with the cinnamon honey butter immediately after they come out of the oven.

Notes

  • For make-ahead rolls, you can refrigerate the shaped dough balls after the second rise for up to 24 hours. Let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking.
  • You can also freeze baked rolls. Let them cool completely, then store in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
  • Ensure your milk is warm, not hot, to avoid killing the yeast.
  • Kneading develops the gluten, which gives the rolls their signature soft, chewy texture.
