Ingredients

Dough
2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
3/4 cup warm milk (110°F)
2 tbsp granulated sugar
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 large egg
3 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
Topping
2 tbsp melted butter
flaky sea salt

Equipment

  • Air Fryer Parchment Liners

Steps

  1. 1

    Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm milk and let sit for 5 minutes until foamy, then mix in the egg and softened butter.

  2. 2

    Stir in flour and salt until a soft dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  3. 3

    Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm spot for 45 minutes until doubled in size.

  4. 4

    Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces, shape each into a smooth ball, and place them in a parchment-lined air fryer basket with space between each roll.

  5. 5

    Cook at 325°F for 12-14 minutes in batches until golden brown on top, brushing with melted butter and flaky salt immediately after removing.

💡

Tip: Keep the temperature lower than you might expect — air fryers circulate heat aggressively and higher temps will brown the outside before the interior is fully baked.
