2. Ingredients

• 3 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
• 1 packet (2¼ teaspoons) instant yeast
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• ¾ cup warm milk (about 110°F)
• ⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 large eggs
• Optional: cinnamon sugar, vanilla extract, or raisins for filling

For the glaze:

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2-3 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3. Step-by-Step Instructions

Preparing the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. In a separate bowl, warm the milk and then add the melted butter and eggs. Mix well. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and knead until a smooth, elastic dough forms. You can do this by hand or using a stand mixer with a dough hook.

First Rise

Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free area for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it doubles in size.

Shaping the Rolls

Once the dough has doubled, punch it down gently. Turn it out onto a floured surface and roll it into a rectangle about ½ inch thick. If you wish to add fillings like cinnamon sugar or raisins, spread filling evenly over the rectangle before rolling it up tightly from the long side. Slice the rolled dough into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking dish.

Second Rise

Cover the rolls loosely with a towel and let them rise again for about 30-45 minutes, until puffy.

Baking the Breakfast Rolls

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown on top. When finished, remove from oven and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack.

Adding the Glaze

In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk to make a smooth glaze. Drizzle over the warm rolls for a sweet, shiny finish.

4. Storage Tips

Store leftover breakfast rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze them in a sealed bag for up to 1 month. To reheat, warm them in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes or microwave for 20-30 seconds until heated through.

5. Serving Suggestions

Enjoy these fluffy morning bread with a spread of butter, honey, or your favorite jam. Pair them with a hot cup of coffee or tea for an extra special breakfast experience. For added flavor, consider topping with whipped cream or serving alongside fresh fruit for a colorful, nutritious addition.

6. Additional Tips and Variations

• For a richer flavor, substitute some of the milk with melted butter or cream.
• Add a touch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dough for a warm, spiced variation.
• Mix in dried fruits like raisins or cranberries for added sweetness and texture.
• To make these breakfast pastries vegan, substitute dairy and eggs with plant-based alternatives.

7. FAQs about Fluffy Breakfast Rolls

Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the dough the night before, let it rise in the refrigerator overnight, and bake fresh in the morning. This allows for a quick and easy breakfast without morning prep.

What substitutions can I use for the eggs?

For egg-free versions, substitute each egg with ¼ cup applesauce or a commercial egg replacer. These options maintain the moisture and texture of the rolls.

How long does it take to make these breakfast rolls from start to finish?

Including rising times, the total process takes approximately 3 hours. If you refrigerate the dough overnight, the active prep time is about 30-45 minutes.

Can I freeze the unbaked dough?

Yes, shape the rolls, place them on a baking sheet, freeze until firm, then transfer to a sealed bag. Bake directly from frozen at 375°F, adding extra baking time as needed.
