Almost Heaven Honey Butter Yeast Rolls image

A familiar, famously fluffy and buttery-sweet Southern comfort, these yeast rolls are sure to satisfy day or night. The combination of white and brown sugars with the honey lends to the rich complexity of the sugar profile, and elevates the dish from just another buttery roll, to an inimitable southern comfort. Halve the dough and roll to make a soft and fluffy cinnamon roll base, or sprinkle sugar on top after baking and buttering for a doughnut breakfast alternative.

Time 2h17m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

⅔ cup whole milk
3 tablespoons brown sugar
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
6 ½ tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, divided
1 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons honey, or more to taste
1 teaspoon salt, or as needed

Steps:

  • Mix milk, brown sugar, and white sugar together in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until warm, 40 to 50 seconds. Stir in yeast.
  • Whisk 6 tablespoons butter and eggs in a separate bowl. Whisk into the milk mixture until just combined, 30 to 60 seconds. Stir in flour, 1/2 cup at a time, mixing well after each addition until dough is smooth and still wet.
  • Place dough in a greased bowl. Loosely cover and let rise in a warm, dry place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  • Transfer dough to a floured work surface. Drizzle with honey and salt. Fold in half and repeat the honey-salt drizzle. Repeat folding and drizzling, 5 to 6 times.
  • Roll dough into a rectangle about 1/2-inch in thickness. Cut into 12 equal pieces using a pizza cutter. Place rolls on lightly greased 9x13-inch baking pans or on lightly greased baking sheets. Cover rolls with a light cloth and let rise again until doubled in volume, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake rolls in the preheated oven until tops begin to brown, 11 to 14 minutes. Brush the remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter and some honey over the rolls right after removing from the oven.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The rolls were dense and chewy.

These rolls were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my family loved them. They were very soft and fluffy.

I was so excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The rolls were dry and crumbly. I think I might have over-kneaded the dough.

I've tried many yeast roll recipes, but this one is by far the easiest. The dough came together quickly and easily, and the rolls baked up perfectly. I'll be using this recipe again and again!
