Ingredients:
For the rolls:
- 1 cup warm milk (110°F)
- 1 package active dry yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon salt
For the cinnamon honey butter:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm milk. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- Add sugar, melted butter, egg, and salt to the yeast mixture. Stir until well combined.
- Gradually add flour to the mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into small portions, shaping each into a roll.
- Place the rolls on a greased baking sheet, cover them, and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden brown on top.
- While the rolls are baking, prepare the cinnamon honey butter by mixing softened butter, powdered sugar, honey, and ground cinnamon until smooth.
- Serve the warm rolls with a generous dollop of cinnamon honey butter on top.
