Instructions
-
Combine warm milk, egg, sugar (or honey), and instant yeast in a bowl; let sit briefly to activate.
-
In a separate bowl, mix flour, salt, and softened unsalted butter. Add the wet mixture and stir until a shaggy dough forms.
-
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 5–7 minutes.
-
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled in size, roughly 1 hour.
-
Punch down the risen dough, divide into equal portions, shape into rolls, and place on a greased baking sheet.
-
Cover the rolls and let them proof for about 20–30 minutes.
-
Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F until golden brown, about 12–15 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
-
While the rolls bake, combine softened butter, powdered sugar, cinnamon powder, and honey in a bowl; mix until smooth.
-
Serve the warm rolls with the cinnamon butter spread on top or on the side.

About this recipe
The rolls have a light, pillowy crumb thanks to warm milk, a touch of sugar, and butter folded into the dough. A quick rise and bake give them a golden exterior without being dense. Serve them warm straight from the oven, split in half, and slather with the aromatic cinnamon butter for a comforting starter or side. Pair with steak, soup, or enjoy as a breakfast treat with coffee.
