Ingredients

• 1 cup milk
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 2.25 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 3.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0 all-purpose flour
• 0 plastic wrap
• 0 greased 9x13-inch baking dish
• 0 plastic wrap
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 0 flaky sea salt

Instructions

1. In a small saucepan, combine milk and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm, about 110°F.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk mixture with honey and yeast. Let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
3. Add the flour and salt to the yeast mixture and stir until a dough forms.
4. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
5. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
6. Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
7. Cover the rolls with plastic wrap and let rise until puffy, about 30 minutes.
8. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
9. Bake the rolls until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
10. Brush the warm rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with flaky sea salt before serving.
