SOFT DINNER ROLLS

Easy Soft Dinner Rolls
➡1 tablespoon rapid-rise yeast
➡3 tablespoons white granulated sugar, divided*
➡1/2 cup warm water, (110-115˚F)
➡1 cup milk
➡1/4 cup butter, melted
➡1 1/2 teaspoons salt
➡4 cups bread flour, (or all purpose four), plus about 1/4 cup extra for dusting your work surface
➡2 tablespoons melted butter, for brushing baked rolls
Directions;
➡Heat oven to 200°F | 100°C (if using your oven to proof the dough).
➡Mix the yeast, 1 tablespoon of sugar and warm water in a large bowl. Let sit for 7-10 minutes until foamy and frothed.
➡While yeast is activating, combine the milk and butter in a 2-cup capacity microwave safe jug.
➡Microwave on high for about 40-50 seconds, or until butter has half melted and milk is luke warm. Stir in remaining sugar and salt.
➡Add in 2 cups of flour, giving it a light mix to combine with a wooden spoon, then add in the remaining 2 cups of flour. Mix until starting to pull away from the walls of the bowl
➡Transfer dough back into the bowl. Cover with a warm damp towel.
➡Scrape dough onto a lightly floured work surface or kitchen bench, knead lightly for about 30-40 seconds if needed to bring the dough together, and mould into a loaf shape.
➡Working one by one, lightly flatten each piece of dough in the palm of your hands, then bring up all sides to form a peak on top
➡Arrange rolls, smooth side up into a lightly greased baking pan or dish.
➡Lightly spray rolls with cooking oil spray, cover with plastic wrap and let rise again until just about doubled in size
➡Bake in a preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until rolls are golden browned.
➡Lightly brush with a little extra melted butter, and transfer to a cooling rack.
