Description

Soft, fluffy, and slightly sweet Hawaiian sweet rolls, perfect for breakfast.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 envelope instant yeast (about 2¼ teaspoons)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup whole milk, warmed
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup crushed pineapple, drained
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine the flour, sugar, instant yeast, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Mix the warmed milk, melted butter, and eggs in a separate bowl.
  3. Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients while mixing gently.
  4. Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes on a lightly floured surface.
  5. Shape the dough into a ball and place it in a greased bowl, covering with a damp cloth.
  6. Allow the dough to rise in a warm spot until it doubles in size, about 1 hour.
  7. Punch the dough down, divide into 12 equal pieces, and shape them into balls.
  8. Cover the rolls and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
  9. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes.
  10. Let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

For a vegan option, replace regular milk with plant-based milk. To make them lighter, consider using coconut oil instead of butter.
