Ingredients:

For the Dough:

3 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons instant yeast
2 tablespoons sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 tablespoons milk
1 cup lukewarm water
2 large eggs

For the Egg Wash:

1 egg
1 tablespoon water

Optional Variations:

Add vanilla extract for a subtle sweetness.
Use honey instead of sugar for a natural flavor.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds or poppy seeds for extra texture.

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.
In a small saucepan, heat butter and milk until the butter melts. Let it cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together lukewarm water and eggs.
Combine the milk mixture with the egg mixture, then pour over the dry ingredients.
Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until a sticky dough forms.

Step 2: Knead & Rise

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 10-15 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 2-4 hours until doubled in size.

Step 3: Shape the Rolls

Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces.
Shape each piece into a round ball and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Cover with a towel and let them rise for 1 hour until puffy.

Step 4: Egg Wash & Bake

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Whisk together egg and water, then brush the tops of the rolls with the mixture.
Bake for 13-15 minutes until golden brown.

Step 5: Serve & Enjoy

Let the rolls cool slightly before serving.
Enjoy them warm with butter, jam, or your favorite spread!
