Ingredients

1¼ cup (295ml) warm milk (about 110℉)
¼ cup (55g) granulated sugar
1¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
1 large egg
3 tablespoons butter, melted
3½ cups (460g) bread flour
1 tablespoon minced fresh sage
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
2 teaspoon minced fresh thyme
1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Whisk the warm milk, sugar, and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer. Set aside to "bloom" or activate the yeast. If the yeast is not foamy after 5 minutes your yeast is no good and you will need to get new yeast.
After the yeast has become foamy, add the remaining ingredients and give it a little stir to start to combine the flour with the wet ingredients. Place on the stand mixer fitted with the dough hook and knead on low until dough comes together and is nice and smooth. It should pull away from the sides of the bowl. This can take around 10 minutes.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap and allow to rise until doubled in a warm place. This can take 1-2 hours depending on how warm your house is. Punch the dough down and divide it into 12 equal sized pieces of dough. You can eyeball this or weigh them out. Shape each piece into a smooth ball and place into a lightly greased 9x13 baking pan. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise until doubled in a warm place.
Preheat oven to 350℉ and bake rolls for 20-25 minutes or until rolls are golden brown. Brush tops of rolls with butter for ultra soft rolls. Allow rolls to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Can be made into 15 smaller rolls as well.
