Servings: 10 rolls
Calories: 206kcal
Ingredients
For the Dough
- 2½ cups bread flour
- 1¾ tsp active dry yeast
- 1½ Tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- ¾ cup milk warm
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 oz. unsalted butter, softened
For the Rolls
- 1 large egg
- 2 Tbsp poppy seeds
- 2 Tbsp sesame seeds
Instructions
- Using an electric mixer, add all of the Dough 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 countertop; 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 onto a parchment-lined baking pan or small cast iron skillet. (Tip: Leave ~½"-1" in between rolls to allow room to grow.)
- 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.
- Whisk together the large egg with 1 Tbsp of water. Brush the tops of the rolls with this egg wash.
- Sprinkle tops of rolls with poppy seeds, sesame seeds or a combination of both.
- Bake rolls for 14-16 minutes, or until tops are golden brown in color.
