Ingredients
Scale
Dough Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
Topping
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for brushing, optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the rolls evenly and obtaining a golden crust.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to combine all dry ingredients uniformly.
- Add wet ingredients and form dough: Pour the milk and melted butter into the dry mixture, stirring gently until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing to keep the dough tender.
- Shape rolls: Lightly flour your hands to prevent sticking, then divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a smooth ball and place them spaced apart on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Optional brushing: For a beautiful golden finish, lightly brush the tops of the dough balls with olive oil before baking.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until the rolls are lightly golden and cooked through.
- Serve warm: Remove from the oven and serve the rolls warm for the best texture and flavor experience.
Notes
- These rolls are best served fresh but can be reheated in the oven the next day.
- Enhance flavor by adding garlic powder, herbs, or shredded cheese to the dough before shaping.
- Do not overmix the dough to keep the rolls soft and fluffy.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute milk and butter with plant-based alternatives.
