Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Dough:

  • 3 1/2 โ€“ 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) instant yeast
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup warm milk
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 6 tbsp salted butter, room temperature
  • 3 eggs, room temperature
  • 1 egg yolk, beaten with 1 tbsp water
  • Flaky sea salt, for garnish

For the Sage Honey Butter:

ย 

  • 12 sage leaves
  • 6 tbsp salted butter, room temperature
  • 3 tbsp honey

Instructions

  • In a stand mixer bowl, combine flour, yeast, and salt. Add warm milk, honey, eggs, and 6 tbsp butter. Use the dough hook to mix until incorporated, about 4-5 minutes. If dough is sticky, add more flour, ยผ cup at a time. Cover and let rise at room temperature for 15 minutes or up to 1 hour.

  • Meanwhile, make the sage honey butter. In a skillet over medium heat, fry sage leaves with 1 tbsp butter until crisp. Chop the sage and mix with the remaining butter, honey, and a pinch of sea salt.

  • Preheat oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) and line a 9ร—9-inch baking dish with parchment paper.

  • Punch down the dough and divide in half. Roll each half into a 12-inch square, about ยผ-inch thick. Brush with honey butter, reserving extra for serving. Cut each square into 6 strips, roll into coils, and place seam-side down in the baking dish.

  • Brush rolls with the beaten egg yolk mixture. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes until puffy.

ย 

  • Bake for 22-25 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and brush with remaining honey butter. Serve warm with flaky sea salt.


Notes

  • Best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers can be stored in an airtight container and reheated.
  • Swap sage for rosemary or thyme for a different flavor twist.

ย 

  • Can be made aheadโ€”prepare the dough and refrigerate overnight before baking.
