Homemade Sweet Rolls
  1. In a small bowl, combine warm milk, active dry yeast, and honey. Stir gently, and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy. This indicates that the yeast is active.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, add the 4 cups of all-purpose flour. Make a well in the center.

  3. Pour the melted butter, and the egg into the well in the flour. Drizzle honey to your heart's content (I personally suggest a ¼ cup).

  4. Pour the small bowl of milk, yeast, and honey into the large mixing bowl with remaining ingredients.

  5. Mix everything together until a dough forms. You can use a wooden spoon or your hands for this step.

  6. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. You may need to add a little more flour if the dough is too sticky.

  7. Divide the dough into little balls, about the size that can fit in your hand. You want to take some dough and roll them until they're seamless spheres of dough.

  8. Cover the your rolls with a kitchen towel and let the rolls rise for 20-30 minutes.

  9. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  10. Place your rolls in a greased baking dish or cast iron, leaving a little space between each one.

  11. In a small bowl, combine your Egg Wash ingredients. Then, gently brush egg wash on the top of your rolls.

  12. Bake for about 25 minutes or until they are golden brown on top and cooked through.

  13. Remove the sweet rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.

  14. Drizzle more honey and butter over the warm rolls if desired.
