Snowflake Dinner Rolls
Soft dinner rolls with a nice crust, dusted with flour before baking.
Ingredients
Yeast Mixture
- ½ cup Warm Water 95°F to 110°F (35°C to 43°C)
- 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar
- 1½ tablespoon Active Dry Yeast
Dry Ingredients
- 4? cup All Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 3 tablespoon Granulated Sugar
Wet Ingredients
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
- ½ cup Plant Butter melted and cooled
Instructions
- Stir 1 tablespoon of the sugar into warm water (95°F to 110°F or 35°C to 43°C) and stir in the yeast until dissolved. Set aside to let it foam up.
- Combine in the bowl of a stand mixer, the flour, salt, and remainder of the granulated sugar. Equip the mixer with a dough hook and stir to combine.
- Add the melted butter, milk, egg, and proofed yeast mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir the wet and dry ingredients on low until combined.
- Increase the speed of the mixer to medium in order for the dough to knead and comes together in a ball. Notice that the dough should be stretchy, and tacky, not sticky.
- Shape the dough into a large bowl and place it on a lightly floured surface. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for 15 minutes.
- Divide the dough into 16 equal pieces. Use a kitchen scale to weigh the total weight of the dough and then divide accordingly.
- Shape each piece of dough into a ball with your finger. Stretch out the piece to create a smooth surface and bunch up the dough underneath, pinching it closed.
- Place the balls of dough into a lightly greased 9"x13" baking dish, creating 4 rows of 4, spacing them evenly. Cover the baking dish in plastic wrap and let them rise for 40 minutes or until they have doubled in size.
- Notice that the dinner rolls are ready to bake when they they have filled up the surface of the baking dish. Sprinkle the top of the buns with flour, using a small mesh sifter.
- Place in a preheated 380F oven. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the tops and side are lightly golden in color.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool for 5-10 minutes. Carefully remove them from the pan and place on a cooling rack, to prevent the buns from "sweating" and making sure the crust can crisp up.
