I love making these at home. Whether I shape them into rounds or rectangles they are the ultimate bread for a late night sandwich. Kiddos love them in their lunch boxes too.
Ingredients
- 1 Cup warm milk
- 1 TBSP Yeast
- 1 TBSP Sugar
- 1 TSP Salt
- 3 TBSP Butter, softened and cut into small cubes (approximately 40 grams)
- 1 Egg, room temp
- 3 – 4 cups flour
Directions
- In a stand mixer mix milk, yeast, and sugar. Let it stand for 2 minutes.
- Add 3 cups of flour, egg, butter, and salt.
- Mix using a dough attachment.
- At this point add flour as needed until the dough no longer sticks to the side of your bowl. Depending on which flour I use, I can use up to that extra cup.
- Cover and allow the dough to double in size for 1 – 2 hours.
- Punch down the dough, cut and shape into rectangles or rounds, which ever you prefer.
- Cover and let it rest for another 40 minutes.
- Cut slits into the dough as desired and bake into a preheated oven at 180 degrees until golden brown.
- Cover with a towel for 10 minutes before cutting or eating, so it cools down.
