Description

This recipe creates delightful, pillowy soft bread rolls infused with the warm, licorice-like flavor of anise seed and sweetened with golden raisins. The dough is enriched with butter and eggs, resulting in a tender crumb and a rich, comforting taste that pairs perfectly with breakfast or as a side dish for dinner. The subtle sweetness from the sugar and raisins balances the savory notes of the butter, making these rolls irresistible. They are perfect for holiday mornings, family brunches, or simply enjoying warm with a pat of butter. Easy to make with pantry staples, this recipe yields a fragrant, homemade treat that brings joy to any table.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, anise seed, and salt.
  2. Heat water and butter until very warm (120 to 130 degrees F); stir into dry ingredients.
  3. Stir in 2 whole eggs, 1 egg yolk (reserve egg white for glaze), and enough remaining flour to make a soft dough.
  4. Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  5. Cover dough and let rest for 10 minutes.
  6. Fold in golden raisins, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
  7. Divide dough into portions and braid or shape into rolls; place on a greased baking sheet.
  8. Cover and let rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
  9. Brush tops with reserved egg white and bake at 375 degrees F (191ðC) for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
