Ingredients: 2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast; 1/2 cup warm water (110u00b0 to 115u00b0); 1 teaspoon plus 1/3 cup sugar, divided; 1-1/4 cups warm 2% milk (110u00b0 to 115u00b0); 1/2 cup butter, melted; 2 large eggs, room temperature; 1-1/2 teaspoons salt; 6 to 6-1/2 cups all-purpose flour; 3 tablespoons butter, softened; 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning; 1 large egg white, beaten

Servings: persons

2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water (110u00b0 to 115u00b0)
1 teaspoon plus 1/3 cup sugar, divided
1-1/4 cups warm 2% milk (110u00b0 to 115u00b0)
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 large eggs, room temperature
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
6 to 6-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 large egg white, beaten

1
In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water with 1 teaspoon sugar. Add milk, melted butter, eggs, salt, 3 cups flour and remaining sugar; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
2
Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
3
Punch dough down; place on a lightly floured surface. Divide into four portions. Roll each portion into a 14x6-in. rectangle. Combine softened butter and Italian seasoning; spread over dough.
4
Score each rectangle widthwise at 2-in. intervals. Using marks as a guide, fold dough accordion-style back and forth along score lines. Cut folded dough into six 1-in. pieces. Place pieces cut side down in greased muffin cups. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
5
Preheat oven to 375u00b0. Uncover and let stand another 10 minutes before baking. Brush with egg white. Bake until golden brown, 18-22 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
