Ingredients
- 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/4 cup warm water (110-115°F)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup melted butter (plus extra for greasing and brushing)
- 1/2 cup warm milk
- 1 large egg
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
Preparation
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm water and let it stand for 5 minutes until frothy. This activates the yeast, ensuring your rolls rise perfectly. Add the sugar, melted butter, warm milk, and egg, whisking until well combined. Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and grease a baking tray or line it with parchment paper.
Once risen, roll the dough into small, golf ball-sized balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each roll. Brush the rolls generously with melted butter and let them rest for 15 minutes to rise slightly.
Bake the rolls for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. As soon as they come out of the oven, brush them with additional melted butter for that signature Texas Roadhouse shine and flavor. Serve these fluffy butter rolls warm, with extra butter on the side if desired. Enjoy the irresistible taste of homemade goodness!
