Instructions
For the Dough
Using the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, add all of the ingredients; mix on low speed for 2 minutes. Increase speed to medium and mix for 3-4 more minutes, or until dough is smooth.
Transfer dough into a large oiled bowl; cover with plastic wrap. Place in a warm (85°F) location for 55-65 minutes, or until dough has almost doubled in size.
Transfer dough onto a lightly floured surface; gently fold the dough to press out the air. Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces (~2 oz. each). Shape each piece into a tight ball and place in a 10” cast iron skillet.
Spray tops of dough with nonstick baking spray and cover lightly with plastic wrap. Place pan in a warm location for 35-40 minutes, or until dough has almost doubled in size.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
For Topping
Using a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and water. Brush the tops of the rolls with this egg wash.
Sprinkle tops of rolls with chopped fresh thyme and coarse sea salt.
Bake rolls for 14-16 minutes, or until tops are golden brown in color.
