Ingredients:
- 1 cup warm water (110°F/43°C)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 1/4 teaspoons (1 packet) active dry yeast
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 1/2 to 3 cups all-purpose flour
- Additional melted butter (for brushing)
Instructions:
- Activate the Yeast: In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water and sugar. Sprinkle the yeast on top and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
- Make the Dough: Add the melted butter, salt, and 2 cups of flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until combined, then gradually add more flour, 1/4 cup at a time, until the dough is soft and slightly sticky but pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
- Knead the Dough: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook for 3-4 minutes.
- Shape the Rolls: Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and shape them into balls. Place them in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish or on a baking sheet. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place for 20-25 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- Bake the Rolls: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Brush with Butter: Remove from the oven and brush the tops with melted butter for a soft, flavorful finish. Serve warm.
