Homemade Parker House Rolls – Bread Recipe

Directions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add flour, melted butter, salt, and egg to the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until doubled in size.
  5. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  6. Punch down the risen dough and divide it into equal-sized portions. Shape each portion into a ball.
  7. Place the dough balls on a baking sheet close together, creating a row.
  8. Cover the baking sheet with a damp towel and let the dough rise for another 30 minutes.
  9. Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  10. Remove from the oven and brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter.
  11. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Homemade Parker House Rolls!

  • Make sure the milk is not too hot, as it can kill the yeast.
