Homemade Bread Rolls

This is my favourite recipe for super easy and nutritious bread rolls.

Ingredients:

3 cups (450g) strong plain flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

40g butter

1 cup (250ml) warm milk

1 tablespoon (14g/2 sachets) dried yeast

2 teaspoons caster sugar

Plain flour, to dust

Method:

1. Combine flour and salt in a bowl. Add butter; use fingertips to rub butter into the flour until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.

2. Combine milk, yeast and sugar in a jug; set aside for 5 minutes or until frothy. Add to flour mixture; stir to combine. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10-15 minutes or until smooth and elastic.

3. Brush a large bowl with oil. Place dough in bowl and cover with a damp tea towel. Set aside in a warm, draught-free place for 1 hour or until dough doubles in size.

4. Preheat oven to 200°C. Punch centre of dough. Turn onto lightly floured surface; knead for 2 minutes or until smooth. Divide dough into eight even portions. Roll each portion into a ball. Place on lightly floured oven tray. Set aside for 10 minutes to rise.

5. Lightly brush rolls with a little water and dust with extra flour. Bake for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to 180°C; bake for a further 15-20 minutes or until rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on base. Serve warm or at room temperature.
