These sweet rolls are perfect for an authentic Italian breakfast. Just spread on some Nutella or fruit preserves and add some fruit and a cappuccino and you’ve got a true Italian breakfast!
Ingredients
4 - 4 1/2 cups All Purpose Flour
2 teaspoons yeast
1 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons sugar
Zest of 1 orange or lemon or half of each
3 eggs beaten
1/3 cup butter melted and cooled to lukewarm
1/2 cup warm milk
1/3 cup warm water
Egg wash: 1 egg splash of milk beaten
Directions
Mix dry ingredients in bowl set aside
In a stand mixer mix water, milk and yeast, then add the rest of the liquids, sugar and zest and mix until combined
Add in dry ingredients starting with 4 cups of flour and mix for 7-9 minutes. You may need the 1/2 cup but maybe not. It may be sticky at first but should eventually form a smooth ball, if not add more flour.
Cover with plastic and set in warm place until doubled in size 1 1/2-2 hours
Deflate dough and make 12 even balls by tucking under pinching and squeezing to form smooth balls.
Cover with a light towel and rise in a warm place until almost double, about 30 minutes. I use my microwave to do this.
Brush with egg wash and bake 20 minutes.
Set on rack to cool.
