Whether you're a seasoned baker or just starting out with bread, these simply delicious dinner rolls are sure to be a hit!

Preparation

Combine milk, sugar and salt in a small sauce pot. Heat on low until just warm to the touch, then add buttermilk and mix to combine. Sprinkle with yeast and let stand for 5 minutes. 

In the bowl of an electric mixer, add flour, milk mixture and softened butter. Mix with a dough hook for 5 minutes. Turn dough out on a lightly floured work surface and knead for 1 minute, adding flour as needed if dough becomes tacky.

Place kneaded dough in a work bowl and cover with plastic wrap to proof. Let dough rise in a warm area of the kitchen for about 1 hour, until it doubles in size.

Turn risen dough onto a work surface and cut into 16 equal portions, about 2 ounces each. Arrange rolls in a greased 10x10-inch baking dish and cover with plastic wrap. Proof again until they have doubled in size, about 30 minutes.

Heat oven to 350°F.

Bake rolls for 18–20 minutes, rotating 180 degrees halfway through, until golden brown. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

Rolls may be stored in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
