Ingredients

  • 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet (2 ¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast
  • 1 cup warm water (about 110°F)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • Additional melted butter for brushing

How to Make Garlic Herb Butter Rolls

  1. In a small bowl, combine warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes frothy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Create a well in the center and pour in the yeast mixture along with the melted butter.
  3. Mix until a dough forms, then knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the kneaded dough into a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  5. Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place them on a greased baking sheet.
  6. In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, parsley, rosemary, garlic powder, and black pepper. Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter, then sprinkle with the garlic herb mixture.
  7. Cover the rolls with a cloth and let them rise again for about 30 minutes.
  8. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
  9. Remove from the oven and brush with additional melted butter before serving. Enjoy warm!

Tips for the Best Results

  • Make sure your water is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast without killing it.
  • Knead the dough thoroughly to develop gluten for a fluffy texture.
  • Allow the rolls to rise in a warm environment for the best volume.
  • Brush the rolls with garlic herb butter twice for extra flavor.

Easy Variations

  • Swap out the herbs for your favorites, like thyme or basil, for a different flavor profile.
  • Add shredded cheese to the dough for cheesy garlic rolls.
  • For a spicy kick, incorporate red pepper flakes into the garlic herb mixture.

What to Serve With It

  • Pair with marinara sauce for a delightful dipping experience.
  • Serve alongside soups, stews, or salads for a hearty meal.
  • Create a delicious appetizer platter with cheese and charcuterie.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To reheat, wrap the rolls in foil and warm them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes.
