2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (1 standard packet)
Ingredient note
Low histamine diets often flag yeast because of its association with fermentation, but baker's yeast is a fresh cultured leavening that does not carry the pre-formed histamine of aged or fermented foods, and the small amount used to raise dough adds little. It is likely fine here. If you prefer to always avoid active dry yeast, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
3 tbsp granulated sugar, divided
3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 tsp fine salt
1 large egg, room temperature
4 tbsp unsalted butter, softened and cut into pieces

For brushing

2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

1
Warm the milk in a small saucepan over low heat until it reaches 105–110°F (40–43°C) on a kitchen thermometer — warm to the touch but not hot. Pour into the bowl of a stand mixer, sprinkle the yeast and 1 tbsp of the sugar over the surface, and let stand for 5–10 minutes until foamy and fragrant.
2
Add the remaining 2 tbsp sugar, the salt, and the egg to the yeast mixture. Add the flour and mix on low speed with the dough hook until a shaggy dough forms, about 2 minutes.
