Step 1

Mix the flour, yeast, sugar, salt, water and 1/4 cup (60ml) of the melted butter in a large mixing bowl with a sturdy spoon until a shaggy dough forms, then knead until the dough comes together and becomes smooth, about 4 minutes by hand or machine. Form a smooth ball. Return the dough to the bowl, cover with a clean tea towel, and let rise in a warm place for 15 minutes. Lightly spray a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

Divide the dough in twenty equal-size pieces. Roll each piece of dough into a tight ball and arrage in five rows of four each in the prepared pan. Place on the middle rack of a COLD oven with a pan of hot tap water below it. *Close the oven, set the heat at 400 degrees F and set the timer for 35 minutes.

Step 3

After 35 minutes, remove the bread from the oven and brush generously with the remaining butter. lace the pan on a cooling rack to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. If you want to slice the rolls for sliders, you'll need to let them cool completely before slicing.
