How to Make Cottage Cheese Caraway Rolls

  1. In a food processor, combine 1 cup warm water (105-115°F), 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon sugar. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add 1/2 cup cottage cheese, 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon caraway seeds to the food processor.
  3. Gradually add 3 1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour, processing until a shaggy dough forms.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic (the dough will be slightly sticky).
  5. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  6. Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces.
  7. Shape each piece into a smooth ball and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each roll.
  8. Cover the rolls loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30 minutes.
  9. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  10. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  11. Let the rolls cool on a wire rack before serving.
