Ingredients

Dough Ingredients

  • 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
  • 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 large egg
  • 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Garlic Herb Butter

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
  • 3 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary (chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Activate Yeast: In a large mixing bowl, combine warm milk, active dry yeast, and sugar. Let this mixture sit for 5 to 10 minutes until it becomes foamy, indicating the yeast is active.
  2. Mix Dough: Stir in the melted butter and egg. Gradually add the flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms that starts to come together.
  3. Knead Dough: Using a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic and it pulls away from the bowl. Alternatively, knead by hand on a floured surface for 6 to 8 minutes until the dough feels stretchy and pliable.
  4. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and set in a warm place to rise for 1 hour or until it doubles in size, developing airy texture.
  5. Shape Rolls: Punch down the risen dough to release gases. Divide it into 12 equal portions, roll each into a ball, and arrange them close together in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Cover and let rise again for 30 minutes until puffy.
  6. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking.
  7. Prepare Garlic Herb Butter: In a small bowl, mix melted butter with minced garlic, chopped parsley, rosemary, thyme, and salt. Brush half of this flavorful butter generously over the tops of the rolls, ensuring even coating.
  8. Bake Rolls: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until they turn golden brown and the tops are beautifully crisped.
  9. Final Touch: Immediately after baking, brush the remaining garlic herb butter over the hot rolls for extra moisture and flavor. Serve warm to enjoy their full, aromatic richness.

Notes

  • Ensure the milk is warm but not hot to avoid killing the yeast.
  • For best results, use fresh herbs to maximize flavor.
  • You can substitute fresh herbs with 1 teaspoon each of dried parsley, rosemary, and thyme if needed.
  • Make sure to brush the rolls right after baking to keep them soft and flavorful.
  • These rolls are best enjoyed the day they are baked but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat gently in the oven or microwave before serving.
