Buttermilk Fantails

These golden buttermilk fantails are a sophisticated addition to any bread basket, offering a beautiful pull-apart texture that is as pleasing to the eye as it is to the palate. The combination of tangy buttermilk and plenty of melted butter creates a rich, tender crumb, while the unique folding technique results in elegant, fan-like layers. Whether served warm alongside a Sunday roast or enjoyed as a standalone snack, these rolls bring a touch of bakery-style luxury to your home kitchen.

As a versatile vegetarian side dish, these homemade rolls are perfect for special occasions or a comforting weekend baking project. The dough is forgiving and supple, making it an excellent choice for those looking to practice their bread-making skills. Once baked, the fanned layers become crisp and golden on the edges while remaining soft and pillowy in the centre, ensuring they are always a favourite with guests.

Ingredients for Buttermilk Fantails

  • 1 stick plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, divided

  • 2 teaspoons active dry yeast (from a 1/110g package)

  • 60ml warm water (105-46°C)

  • 1 tablespoon mild honey or sugar

  • 725ml plain flour plus more for kneading and dusting

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt

  • 180ml de leitelho bem agitado

Butter muffin cups with 1 tablespoon melted butter.

Stir together yeast, warm water, and honey in a large bowl and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. (If mixture doesn't foam, start over with new yeast.)

Mix flour, salt, buttermilk, and 90ml melted butter into yeast mixture with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until a soft dough forms. Turn out dough onto a well-floured surface and knead, dusting surface and your hands with just enough flour to keep dough from sticking, until dough is elastic and smooth, 6 to 8 minutes. Form dough into a ball.

Put dough in an oiled large bowl and turn to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel and let dough rise in a draft- free place at warm room temperature until doubled, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Punch down dough (do not knead), then halve. Roll out half of dough on a lightly floured surface with a floured rolling pin into a 12-inch square (about 1/8 inch thick; keep remaining half covered with plastic wrap). Brush dough with 1/2 tablespoons butter and cut into 6 equal strips. Stack strips, buttered sides up, and cut crosswise into 6 equal pieces. Turn each piece on a side and put into a muffin cup. Make more rolls with remaining dough in same manner. Separate outer layers of each roll to fan outward. Cover rolls with a kitchen towel (not terry cloth) and let rise in a draft-free place at warm room temperature until doubled and dough fills cups, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.

Preheat oven to 191°C with rack in middle. Bake rolls until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Brush tops with remaining 2 tablespoons butter, then transfer rolls to a rack and cool at least 20 minutes.
