Method

Sage & Brown Butter Pull Apart Rolls
  1. To a saucepan over medium heat melt butter. Add sage leaves & continue cooking until butter begins to brown, about 5 minutes. You will know butter is browned once it gives off a nutty aroma.

  2. Remove from heat & let cool slightly.

  3. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment add milk, yeast, sugar, egg, flour, salt & 3 tablespoons of prepared butter. Knead until dough is smooth & elastic, about 5 minutes.

  4. Shape into a ball, transfer to a lightly greased bowl, cover & let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

  5. Divide dough into 18 equally sized rounds. Roll out each piece to a 2 by 4-inch rectangle, brush with remaining brown butter, fold in half & transfer to a baking dish. Repeat until you have 3 rows of 6 rolls.

  6. Cover & let rise for 30 minutes. Brush with remaining brown butter & finish with flaked salt.

  7. Bake at 375(f) degrees for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden.
