Ingredients
- 1 ¼ Cup (295 g) Water room temperature
- 1 Cup (242 g) Whole Milk microwaved to 110℉ (43℃)
- 1 tbsp (12 g) Sugar
- 4 1/2 tsp (14 g) Active Dry Yeast or Instant Yeast

- 1 tbsp (14 g) Oil vegetable oil, peanut oil, avocado oil, or any neutral oil
Instructions
- Bloom the Yeast: In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the warm water, milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit until it becomes foamy (roughly 5 minutes).
- Knead: Add the rest of the ingredients into the stand mixer bowl. With the dough hook attachment, knead on low speed for five to ten minutes.

- Shape and Second Rise: Place the dough on a floured work surface. Divide the dough into four (it does not have to be perfectly even). Roll each piece into a log that is 8-10 inches long. Place them onto your baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover and let rise for an additional hour or until doubled in size.
- Preheat: Preheat your oven to 425℉ (218℃).
- Bake: Bake for 15-20 minutes or until it is golden brown on the outside. The internal temperature should be 195℉ (90℃).
- Let sit on a wire rack to cool down for one hour or until ready to eat.

- No Stand Mixer? No problem! You can knead the dough by hand. It will take double the time to knead. The bread will still turn out the same as it would if kneaded by a stand mixer.
- Second Rise: Make sure to cover the dough while leaving enough room for the rise.
- Storage Instructions: These bread rolls will last at room temperature for up to three days. If you need to store it for longer, place the bread in an airtight container and freeze it. When you are ready to eat them, defrost them at room temperature for an hour.
