American Parker House Rolls#BreadBakers

This Parker House Rolls are soft, buttery, fluffy and delicious. They are so light and easy to make and can be easily made ahead of time. The recipe for Parker House Rolls first started appearing in cookbooks in the 1880s.

For Bread Bakers this month our theme is American Breads, decided to try these rolls, there is no difference in preparing the dough - just as we make any other dinner rolls, only difference is in the shaping method.

These dinner rolls are made by flattening the center of a ball of dough with a rolling pin or skewer, then folding the dough in half and the folding of dough on itself while shaping the rolls.

The top of the dough is brushed with butter which gives a nice rich and buttery flavor to the parker house rolls. My tip - I have made these roll small, would suggest that they should be made a little bigger. These a really good to make sandwiches too.

Ingredients
350 Grams All Purpose Flour
135 Ml Milk
1½ Teaspoon Instant Yeast
35 Grams Sugar
¾ Teaspoon Pink Himalayan Salt
50 Grams Butter
1 Large Egg
Method
In to a bowl add in the lukewarm milk, yeast, sugar, salt and egg. Combine them together. Then add in the butter (preferably softened, at room temperature which is easy to blend).Now add the flour into this and combine everything together.

Now transfer the dough on to a clean work surface and we need to knead the dough until it forms a smooth and elastic dough.
Keep the well kneaded dough on the counter and cover it with a bowl. Let the dough sit and relax for 30 minutes. 

After 30 minutes this dough doubled in size.

After 30 minutes of resting the dough, place it on a lightly floured work surface. Roll the dough using a rolling pin into an approximate square shape of 11 inches x 11 inches x ½ inch thick. So that the sheet has a thickness of ½ inch.

Brush the top of dough with softened butter or melted butter.
Divide it into equal pieces. The more similar they are in size, the more even they will get baked).

Now take a toothpick and make a light indent in the center.

Fold the dough on to itself, to ¾ of the length as shown above.

Place the rolls on the prepared baking tray (greased or lined with parchment paper) with the smooth surface on top. This will prevent the rolls from unfolding while they proof and bake.

Cover the dinner rolls with a plastic film and let them rise until they puff up really well. 

Bake the dinner rolls at 180°C with both elements on for 15-18 minutes. The baking duration may vary according to the size of the rolls. Bigger rolls will take longer and smaller rolls will get baked in less time.Brush them with butter as soon as they are out of the oven.

Enjoy the softest fluffiest, buttery Parker House Rolls!
