Making the doughFirst, add the dry ingredients to the mixing bowl of your stand mixer and then add the hot tap water and butter.

Next, attach the dough hook to the stand mixer and knead the dough for at least 8 to 10 minutes on low until you get a soft ball.

Proofing the doughOnce a ball forms, you can proof the sticky dough in the Instant Pot.

Next, place the lid on top and press the yogurt button. Leave the dough in the pot for 60 minutes or until the dough has doubled in size.

When your dough has doubled in size, gently punch it down to deflate the dow. 

Next, dust a flat surface with a little flour and knead the dough on the floured surface with your hands for a few minutes

Shaping the doughNext, form dough into a flat circle and cut it into 6 equal portions. Roll each piece into a ball, lightly coat each in flour, and then cover with a towel.

When covered, use a rolling pin or your hand to stretch out the dough towards the ends just a bit; this should form a slightly oval shape that is about 5 to 6 inches long. 

Repeat the process with the remaining dough. 

Next, place the shaped dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Make the Indentations & Let it Rest:Next, use a wooden spoon handle or chopsticks to press two deep marks on the long part of the dough. The marks should reach all the way to the bottom without cutting through but visually dividing it into three long sections. 

Repeat this process twice to achieve the Telera rolls shape with three divisions on all the rolls.

Finally, brush a little oil on top of the roll and cover with a kitchen towel and let them rest until doubled in volume, which will take about 30 minutes.

Bake the BreadPreheat your oven to 400 °F. 

Next, brush the tops with water and put them on the middle oven rack and then bake the telera rolls for 15 to 18 minutes or until the internal temperature of the bread reaches 190 °F. 

When the Telera is done, remove them from the baking sheet to cool on a wire rack.

Once slightly cooled, cut the roll and spread some whipped honey butter or butter and sugar on top.
