Description

These homemade crescent rolls offer a delightful balance of flaky texture and soft, buttery interior. Made from scratch with simple ingredients like bread flour, yeast, and a touch of sugar, they provide a satisfying crunch on the outside while remaining tender within. The melted butter adds a rich aroma that fills the kitchen as they bake to a perfect golden brown. Ideal for breakfast, brunch, or as a side dish for dinner, these rolls are a comforting classic. They pair beautifully with soup, stew, or simply with jam and honey. Easy to prepare, this recipe ensures you can enjoy bakery-quality bread at home without the hassle.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and dry yeast. Let stand for 5 minutes until foamy.
  2. Stir in melted margarine, nonfat dry milk, and salt until well combined.
  3. Add 3 cups of the bread flour, mixing one half cup at a time, to form a soft dough.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
  5. Add remaining flour, one tablespoon at a time, if needed to prevent sticking.
  6. Place dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning once to coat the top.
  7. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85&# 194;°F), free from drafts, for 45 minutes or until doubled in size.
  8. Punch dough down and divide it in half. Cover and let rest for 5 minutes.
  9. Working with one portion at a time (cover remaining dough), roll each portion into a 14-inch circle on a lightly floured surface.
  10. Cut each circle into 8 wedges. Roll up each wedge, beginning at the wide end, to form a crescent shape.
  11. Place rolls, point side down, 2 inches apart on baking sheets coated with cooking spray.
  12. Lightly coat tops of rolls with cooking spray. Let rise for 15 minutes.
  13. Bake at 375ðF (191ðC) for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
