Ingredients
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
- 1 cup warm milk (110°F)
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil (for brushing)
- Extra butter (for brushing, optional)
Instructions
- Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
- Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture, melted butter, and egg. Mix until a soft dough forms.
- Knead: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic. If using a stand mixer, knead with a dough hook for 3–5 minutes.
- First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1–1 ½ hours, or until it doubles in size.
- Prepare Garlic Herb Mixture: In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic, parsley, and rosemary with olive oil.
- Shape the Rolls: Punch down the dough and divide it into 12-16 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place them in a greased 9×13-inch baking pan.
- Second Rise: Cover the pan with a towel and let the rolls rise for 30–45 minutes, until doubled in size.
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Add Garlic Herb Topping: Gently brush the tops of the rolls with the garlic herb mixture.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown.
- Final Touch: Remove from the oven and brush with additional melted butter, if desired. Serve warm.
