Ingredients (makes 8 Bread rolls)

• 3 cups Plain flour
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt
• 40 grams Butter
• 1 cup Warm milk
• 1 tablespoon Dried yeast
• 2 teaspoons Caster sugar
• 3 tablespoons Plain flour to dust

Method

1. Combine flour & salt in a bowl. Add butter, use fingertips to rub butter into the flour until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
2. Combine milk, yeast & sugar in a jug, set aside for 5 minutes or until frothy. Add to flour mixture, stir to combine. Turn onto a lightly floured surface & knead for 10-15 minutes or until smooth & elastic.
3. Brush a large bowl with oil. Place dough in bowl & cover with damp tea towel. Set aside in a warm, draught free place for 1 hour or until dough doubles in size.
4. Preheat oven to 200 degrees celcius. Punch centre of dough. Turn onto lightly floured surface, knead for 2 minutes or until smooth. Divide dough into eight even portions. Roll each portion into a ball. Place on lightly floured oven tray. Set aside for 10 minutes to rise.
5. Lightly brush rolls with a little water & dust with extra flour. Bake for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to 180 degrees celcius. Bake for a further 15-20 minutes or until rolls are golden brown & sound hollow when tapped on base. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Especially delicious with melted butter. I often serve these with soup & they are fantastic in lunch boxes.
