Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons active dry yeast
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/4 cups milk warm (between 95-100 degrees F)
- 4 cups einkorn all-purpose flour
- 1½ teaspoons salt
Egg Wash
- 1 whole egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine the yeast and the sugar. Add warm milk and stir until dissolved. Let the yeast mixture sit for about 10 few minutes until frothy.
- Add half of the flour and the salt to a mixer and add the yeast mixture. Turn the mixer on low and mix until the flour is combined. Keep on mixing while adding the remaining flour in, a 1/4 cup at a time until the dough pulls away from the sides of the mixer. This is when you know you have added enough flour—it's okay if you have flour remaining.
- Turn the mixer off, cover the bowl with a kitchen towel, and let the dough rise until doubled in size.
- Once your dough has doubled again, sprinkle flour on your counter and hand knead the dough. Using a knife or a pizza cutter, divide dough into 15 pieces of dough, then use your hands to shape dough into evenly shaped balls and place in a lightly greased 9" x 13" baking dish. Cover the rolls gently with a kitchen towel and let rise again in a warm place until doubled.
- While the rolls rise, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
- Once the rolls have doubled in size, whisk together the egg and water and brush over the dough balls using a pastry brush.
- Bake in your preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and brush with melted butter before serving warm. Enjoy!
