One Hour Buttermilk Dinner Rolls

*Plan on doubling this!

4 tbs unsalted butter, cut into 1 tbs slices
2/3 c buttermilk
3/4 c water
4 c flour
3 tbs sugar
1 tbs rapid rise yeast
1 tsp kosher salt (less if you're using salted butter)

Preheat oven to warm, 170 degrees.

Place butter, buttermilk, and water in a heat-proof bowl.  Microwave until butter is mostly melted and between 115-120 degrees.

In a stand mixer using the dough hook attachment, place flour, sugar, yeast, and salt, mix to combine.  With mixer running, slowly add warm milk mixture.  Increase speed to medium and let mix for 4-5 minutes, using a rubber spatula to scrape the sides of the bowl.  Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and pat as flat as you can.  Cut into even chunks (around 12, but more is fine) and roll each chunk into a rope and tie in a knot.  Place each knot of dough on parchment paper.  Place in warmed oven and turn off heat, leaving rolls there for 20 minutes.  Remove rolls and preheat oven to 375.  Bake 12-14 minutes until turning golden brown on top.  Remove, brush tops with melted butter and serve warm.
