- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeast
- 1 ½ cups warm water (110°F)
- 1 tbsp sugar
- ¼ cup melted butter
- Coarse sea salt (for sprinkling)
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and yeast; let sit until foamy (about 5 minutes).
- In a large bowl, combine flour and salt; mix in the yeast mixture and melted butter until dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough, divide it into pieces (about 7 inches long), and shape them into bunnies by twisting two ends together.
