Diets There’s something about the aroma that completely fills up the air of the house when you prepare these heavenly buttery soft pull-apart rolls. The sweet crumbs are just the cherry on top and my family enjoys them until the last drop. Perfect pre-fast, for dinner or brunch!
Please note, dairy breads can only be made in a small enough quantity that will be consumed in one day. If you are baking for a smaller crowd, prepare just half the recipe; or else, follow the parve variation below.
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 and 1/2 teaspoons (1 packet) instant dry yeast, such as Shibolim, or active dry yeast
3 and 1/2 to 4 cups Tuscanini High Gluten Flour
1 cup 2% or whole milk (or your favorite parve milk), warm
2 large eggs, room temperature + 1 egg for egg wash
1 and 1/2 teaspoons Tuscanini Sea Salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter or vegan butter, at room temperature and cut into small pieces
cooking spray
5 tablespoons butter or vegan butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
3/4 cup Tuscanini High Gluten or all purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
1/8 teaspoon Tuscanini Sea Salt
Add sugar and yeast to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with hook attachment or into a large bowl. Pour in warm milk, whisk to combine, then allow to sit for 10 minutes, or until foamy.
Add three and 1/2 cups flour, eggs, sea salt, then mix on low speed for about one to two minutes, or if kneading by hand mix until combined. Add softened butter to the dough, then increase the speed to medium-high. Continue kneading until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Add up to 1/2 cup additional flour as needed.
Grease a large bowl with cooking spray, transfer the dough to the bowl. Spray the top with additional spray, cover with a kitchen towel. Allow the dough to rise in a warm area for about an hour, or until it doubles in size.
Line a nine-inch baking dish with parchment paper or coat with cooking spray.
Turn the dough out onto a clean surface. Lightly flour if necessary. Cut the dough in half, then into quarters. Each quarter will yield 4 rolls. Once you have 16 pieces, fold the edges of the dough towards the center, then gently roll each into a smooth ball.
Arrange the rolls in the prepared pan, cover again with a kitchen towel, then allow to rise for 30 to 45 minutes.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Prepare the sweet crumb topping: add ingredients into a small bowl, mix well until soft crumbs form.
Brush egg on top of the proofed rolls. Coat with sweet crumbs. Bake for 25 to 28 minutes, or until the rolls have puffed up and are golden brown.
