How to Make Amish Dinner Rolls

  1. In a large bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Whisk in the egg, melted butter, and salt until well combined.
  3. Gradually add flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  5. Punch down the dough to release the air. Divide the dough into 12-15 equal pieces.
  6. Shape each piece into a ball and place them on a greased baking sheet, leaving some space between each roll.
  7. Cover the rolls loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until almost doubled in size.
  8. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  10. Remove from oven and brush with extra melted butter for extra flavor and softness.
  11. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
