Easy 4-Ingredient Bread Rolls Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 cups self-rising flour (Note: If you don’t have self-rising flour, you can make your own by combining 2 cups of all-purpose flour with 2 ½ teaspoons of baking powder and ½ teaspoon of salt.)
- 2 teaspoons sugar (For a slight touch of sweetness)
- ¾ cup milk (Whole milk or any milk alternative works)
- ¼ cup butter, melted (Plus extra for brushing on top)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent the rolls from sticking.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour and sugar. Stir them together until they’re well-mixed.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the milk and the melted butter into the dry ingredients. Mix everything together until a dough forms. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky but not too wet. If it feels too dry, add a little more milk, one tablespoon at a time.
- Shape the Rolls: Using your hands, form the dough into small, round balls. You can make them as large or small as you prefer, but for soft, pillowy rolls, aim for a size that fits comfortably in the palm of your hand. Place the rolls onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they’re close to each other for a soft and tender texture when they bake.
- Brush with Butter: For an extra touch of flavor and a golden finish, brush the tops of the rolls with a little extra melted butter.
- Bake: Pop the rolls into your preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until they’re golden brown on top. The rolls should feel soft to the touch and have a beautiful golden hue when done.
