Milk Bread Rolls

RecipesBREADAug 13Written By Malu Bonifacio

Milk bread is a Japanese sweet bread. It is quite similar to a dinner roll because they're both very soft and fluffy.

My kids love this bread as it is moist and sweet.

Milk Bread Rolls

Ingredients

  • ⅔ cup whipping cream
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 3½-4 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp active dry yeast
  • 1 tsp salt

  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled container and cover. Let it rise for an hour or until it doubles in size.
