• 1 tablespoon salt
• 8-9 cups plain flour
• 8 tablespoons melted butter
• 2 large eggs at room temperature
• 4 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast
• 1/2 cup warm milk (110-115 degrees)

How to Make:

1. Activate Yeast:

• In a suitable bowl, combine yeast, warm milk, and honey.
• Stir the mixture until the yeast dissolves and let it sit for 5 minutes until bubbles appear on the surface.

1. Add Ingredients to Mixer:

• Add ground cinnamon to the yeast mixture and stir.
• Transfer the mixture to a dough mixer, add 6 tablespoons of melted butter, eggs, and 4 cups of flour.
• Stir until the mixture is smooth.

1. Knead the Dough:

• Add the remaining flour and salt to the mixer and knead for 7-9 minutes until the dough is sticky and elastic.

1. First Rise:

• Grease a suitable bowl with a spoon of butter, place the dough in it, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about an hour or until it doubles in size.

1. Shape and Prep for Baking:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
• Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush it with melted butter.
• Sprinkle some flour on the work surface, knead the dough lightly, and shape it into balls with a diameter of about 6 cm.

1. Bake:

• Place the shaped pieces on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

1. Serve:

• Allow the rolls to cool, and serve after brushing them with melted butter.

Tips:

• Warm Place for Rising: For an ideal rise, place the covered dough in a warm place. You can use a slightly warmed oven or create a warm environment by placing a bowl of warm water nearby.
• Even Baking: Ensure even baking by arranging the rolls on the baking sheet with enough space between them. This allows for uniform browning.
• Serve Warm: These rolls are best enjoyed warm. Consider reheating them briefly before serving to maintain their softness.
