These soft and fluffy dinner rolls are perfect for any meal, offering a delightful texture and a hint of sweetness.
Combine 2 cups of the flour and the yeast in a large mixing bowl.
Mixing the dry ingredients first ensures even distribution of the yeast.
In a small saucepan, heat the milk, water, butter, sugar, and salt until lukewarm.
Ensure the mixture is not too hot to avoid killing the yeast.
Add the warm liquid mixture to the flour and yeast, and mix until smooth.
Use a wooden spoon or a stand mixer with a paddle attachment for this step.
Gradually add the remaining flour to form a soft dough.
The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic.
Kneading develops the gluten, which gives the rolls their structure.
Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and let it rest for 15 minutes.
Resting allows the dough to relax and makes it easier to shape.
Shape the dough into 12 equal balls and place them on a greased baking sheet.
Use a kitchen scale for evenly sized rolls.
Cover and let the rolls rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
Place the rolls in a warm, draft-free area for optimal rising.
Bake in a preheated 375°F oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
Rotate the baking sheet halfway through for even baking.
Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your homemade dinner rolls!
