Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 1/4 cup warm water (110-115 degrees)
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 package, I use bulk yeast and use 2 1/2 teaspoons, either amounts will work but the rising will be quicker using 2 1/2 tsp yeast)
  • 3/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups cups all-purpose flour, divided
  • Poppyseeds or sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: In the bowl of a stand mixer using the paddle attachment or a large bowl and hand mixer, combine water and yeast until dissolved (I do this in a small cup). Add sour cream, sugar, oil, salt, egg and 3/4 cup flour. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed.

  • Step 2: Add remaining 1 1/4 cups flour and mix until all the flour is incorporated, scraping down sides of bowl. The dough / batter will be sticky.

  • Step 3: Cover and let rise in the same bowl until doubled.

  • Step 4: Coat the wells of a 12-cup muffin tin with vegetable spray.

  • Step 5: Scoop the dough / batter into the wells, filling halfway.

  • Step 6: Cover and let rise until doubled.

  • Step 7: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Brush roll tops with egg white and sprinkle with poppyseeds or sesame seeds or leave plain.

  • Step 8: Bake 20-30 minutes or until lightly browned.

  • Step 9: Turn out of the pans and cool on a wire rack.
