Buttermilk Dinner Rolls Key Ingredients

  • Buttermilk – Buttermilk, like milk, lends fat which makes the bread soft and tender but the acidity and cultures add that lovely tang.
  • Bread Flour – Bread flour is going to help give your bread more structure and chew. You can make these with all purpose, but bread flour is my first choice/suggestion.
  • Sugar – Just a little sugar helps these rolls get a little more brown than without. Additionally it will help your bread rise a little faster and also tenderizes the gluten.

Prep: 20 minutes
Bake: 30 minutes
Proofing Time: 2 hours
Servings: 12 Rolls

Ingredients

  • 480 g Bread flour 4 cups
  • 1 tsp Sea salt
  • 1 tbsp Granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp Instant yeast
  • cup Buttermilk warm
  • 1 large Egg room temperature
  • 3 tbsp Unsalted butter softened
  • 1 tbsp Buttermilk

Cinnamon Honey Butter

  • ¼ cup Salted butter softened
  • tbsp Powdered sugar
  • ½ tsp Cinnamon

Instructions

  • In the bowl of your stand mixer with dough hook attached, combine flour, salt, sugar, instant yeast, 1¼ cup buttermilk, egg, and 3 tbsp softened butter. Mix on low/low-med until dough is smooth and no longer sticking to the sides. For me this took about 12-15 minutes.
  • Cover bowl and allow to rise in a warm spot for 60-90 minutes or until dough has doubled in size.
  • Line a 9×13" pan with parchment paper.
  • When dough is ready, punch down and remove from bowl to work space. Divide dough into 12 equal portions.
  • Take a portion of dough and pull the sides to the middle, pinching together to form a dough ball. Place seam side down on the counter, cup hand loosely over the dough and move hand in a circular motion, creating tension in the dough. Place dough into prepared pan and repeat.
  • Cover your pan and allow your rolls to proof for 30-45 minutes, until they have grown in size and puffed up.
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F
  • When rolls are ready to go into the oven, take the remaining 1 tbsp buttermilk and brush the tops of the rolls.
  • Place your pan on the center rack of your oven and bake for about 25 minutes. Your rolls should be a light to medium golden brown on top when ready.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool. Store rolls in an airtight container and enjoy within 3 days.
  • Optional While rolls are cooling, in a small bowl add softened unsalted butter, cinnamon, and powdered sugar. Using a hand mixer with whisk attachment, whip for about 1 minute until the ingredients have combined and butter is light and fluffy.
