12 Rolls
- Serves:
- 12
ingredients
- 1 tablespoon instant dry yeast
- 1 cup warm water
- 1⁄4 cup honey
- 1⁄4 cup melted salted butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 2 1⁄2 - 3 cups all-purpose flour
directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine yeast, water, and honey. Stir in melted butter, salt, and eggs until combined.
- Slowly add in the flour, 1 cup at a time, until dough forms into a ball and easily pulls away from the sides of the mixing bowl.
- Divide into 12 even pieces and shape into balls. Place into a 12-inch cast iron skillet. Cover and let rise 20 minutes, or until double in size.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Brush with another tablespoon of melted butter if desired.
- Pro Tip: This recipe uses a large amount of yeast to cut rising time as much as possible. If your house is on the colder end, you may want to create a warmer environment for it to proof, or rise. A warm, humid environment between 80 and 90 degrees is ideal for proofing bread. If your house is below 70 to 75 degrees, your rolls will not rise as quickly.
