Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Buttermilk Rolls
- In a stand mixer, combine 1 cup of warm milk (110°F) and 2 teaspoons of active dry yeast. Let sit for about 10 minutes until frothy.
- Add 1 cup of buttermilk, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt to the bowl. Mix on medium speed until well combined.
- Gradually add in 2 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 tablespoon of baking powder to the wet mixture. Mix until the dough pulls away from the bowl.
- Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the kneaded dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm area for 1-2 hours.
- Punch down the risen dough, shape it into a log, and cut it into 12 equal pieces.
- Roll each piece into a ball and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Let rise for another hour.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Whisk together 1 egg and 2 tablespoons of milk for the egg wash. Brush over the tops of the rolls.
- Bake for 13-15 minutes until golden brown on top. Cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Notes
For best results, ensure the yeast is fresh and the milk is warm, not hot. Allow sufficient rising time for light, fluffy rolls.
