No-Knead Condensed Milk Rolls
Super soft, fluffy, and requires only 2 minutes of active mixing.
Ingredients
-
3 cups All-Purpose Flour: Provides the structure for the rolls.
-
1/4 cup Granulated Monk Fruit or Stevia: Replaces the refined sugar for a lighter option.
-
1/4 tsp Salt: To balance the sweetness and strengthen the dough.
-
2 1/4 tsp (1 packet) Instant Yeast: Essential for the rise without kneading.
-
1/2 cup Warm Water: To activate the yeast (ensure it is warm to the touch, not hot).
-
1/2 cup Condensed Milk: For that signature milky flavor and soft crumb.
-
1/4 cup Butter, melted: Adds richness and moisture.
-
2 Eggs: Helps with the rise and creates a golden, brioche-like texture.
Detailed Instructions
1. Mix the Base
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the warm water, melted butter, condensed milk, and eggs until smooth.
-
Add the instant yeast and sugar substitute to the liquid mixture and stir.
2. Combine with Flour
-
Add the all-purpose flour and salt to the wet ingredients.
-
Use a sturdy spatula or wooden spoon to mix for about 2 minutes until a sticky, shaggy dough forms and no dry flour remains.
-
Note: Do not be tempted to add more flour; a sticky dough is the secret to a soft roll.
3. First Rise
-
Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap.
-
Let the dough rest in a warm, draft-free spot for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
4. Shape and Second Rise
-
Gently deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface.
-
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll them into smooth balls.
-
Place the balls into a greased baking pan, cover, and let them rise again for 30–45 minutes until puffy.
5. Bake
-
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
-
Optional: Brush the tops with a little egg wash (1 egg beaten with a splash of water) for a shiny finish.
-
Bake for 20–25 minutes or until the tops are a beautiful golden brown.
