Instructions
- In a small bowl add the water and sprinkle on the yeast and sugar. Let sit for approximately 5 minutes then stir to combine.
- In a large bowl of a stand up mixer add the flour and salt and whisk together, make a well in the middle and add the yeast mixture and pesto.
- Mix with the hook attachment until smooth, approximately 10-15 minutes. (stop in the middle to scrape down the sides and the hook).
- Remove dough from the bowl and knead a couple of times to form a ball, place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean tea towel, place in a warm draft free area and let rise until doubled about 2 hours.
- Remove the dough from the bowl and punch it down, divide into 8 balls, place on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and cover with tea towel, let rise one hour.
- Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C).
- Brush with a little milk, then bake for approximately 15-20 minutes or until golden and baked. Enjoy!
Notes
- I like to use active dry yeast but you could also use instant yeast, for every teaspoon of active dry yeast substitute with 3/4 teaspoon of instant.
- For lukewarm water, make sure the temperature is between 98-105F
- Dinner Rolls should not be refrigerated as this will dry them out. They should be stored in an air tight bag or container and kept at room temperature. They will last up to 5-6 days at room temperature.
- Anything longer than that and they should be frozen. Place in a freezer safe bag or container and freeze. They will last up to six months in the freezer.
- Place the rolls on a baking sheet or wrap in foil and warm in a pre-heated 325F (160C) oven. Heat for about 5-8 minutes or until warm.
