Creating delicious breakfast rolls can be simple if you follow these easy steps:

1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt.
2. Heat Liquids: In a small saucepan, combine milk, water, and melted butter. Warm over low heat until slightly warm (not hot).
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: Add eggs and vanilla extract (if using) to the warm liquid mixture. Stir until combined.
4. Form Dough: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.
5. First Rise: Place the dough into a lightly greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap or a clean cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
6. Prepare Filling (if desired): While the dough is rising, prepare your desired filling by mixing brown sugar and cinnamon (sweet) or cheese and sausage (savory) in separate bowls.
7. Roll Out Dough: Once the dough has risen, punch it down and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll out until it forms a rectangle about ½ inch thick.
8. Add Filling: Spread the filling evenly over the surface of the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
9. Roll Up: Starting from one long side, roll the dough into a tight log. Pinch the seams to seal.
10. Cut the Rolls: Slice the log into 12 equal pieces. Place them into a greased baking dish, spacing them evenly apart.
11. Second Rise: Cover the rolls with a clean cloth and let them rise for another 30 minutes, or until puffy.
12. Preheat Oven: While the rolls are rising, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
13. Bake: Once risen, bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
14. Cool and Serve: Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. You can drizzle icing over sweet rolls or sprinkle savory rolls with herbs for garnish.

By following these steps, you will create breakfast rolls that are sure to impress your family and friends!
