Grandma's Old-Fashioned Yeast Rolls

Ingredients

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 packets (4 ½ teaspoons) active dry yeast
  • 1 cup milk
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, heat the milk until it is warm but not boiling. Remove from heat and stir in the sugar and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture along with the softened butter and eggs.
  3. Mix the ingredients together until they form a soft dough. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean cloth, and let it rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, about 1-2 hours.
  5. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and shape it into small balls. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, allowing for some space between each.
  6. Cover the rolls again and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes until they have puffed up nicely.
  7. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown.
  8. Remove from the oven and brush with melted butter, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

There you have it! A delightful recipe that will bring back memories of family gatherings and holiday cheer. These rolls are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, so gather your loved ones and indulge in the simple pleasure of homemade bread.
