Serving: These rolls are perfect served warm, with a pat of butter, or as a base for sandwiches or sliders. They also pair beautifully with soups, salads, and roasted meats.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To keep them soft, you can reheat them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. These rolls also freeze well for up to 1 month—just thaw them and warm them up before serving.
Variants:
Cinnamon Brioche Rolls: Add 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the dough and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar before baking for a sweet, spiced twist.
Herbed Brioche Rolls: Mix in 1-2 teaspoons of your favorite dried herbs (like rosemary or thyme) for a savory variation.
Brioche Buns: Shape the dough into larger rolls to use as burger buns for a rich, soft texture that elevates any sandwich.
FAQ:
Q: Can I make these rolls ahead of time?
A: Yes, you can prepare the dough ahead of time and refrigerate it after the first rise. Let the dough come to room temperature before shaping and continuing with the second rise.
Q: Can I use bread flour instead of all-purpose flour?
A: Yes, bread flour will make the rolls slightly chewier, but they will still be soft and delicious.
Q: What if I don’t have a stand mixer?
A: No problem! You can knead the dough by hand on a clean, floured surface. Just be patient and knead for the full 8-10 minutes until the dough is smooth.
