Description
Discover the best garlic bread rolls recipe with easy steps for crispy flavorful and soft garlic rolls perfect for any meal or snack occasion
Ingredients
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 packet (2 ¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (about 110°F)
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (plus more for brushing)
4 large garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
Optional: ¼ teaspoon chili flakes
Instructions
- In a small bowl, stir the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it froths and bubbles—this means the yeast is alive and ready.
- Melt butter gently, then mix in the minced garlic and chopped parsley. This fragrant mix will soak into your rolls for incredible flavor.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Pour in the yeast mixture and half of the garlicky butter. Stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place your kneaded dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 to 1½ hours until doubled in size.
- Once risen, deflate the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Roll each into a ball and place them spaced on a greased baking dish or sheet.
- Brush tops generously with remaining garlic butter mixture.
- Cover loosely and let proof for 30 minutes until dough puffs but does not double.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden and hollow sounding when tapped.
- After baking, brush rolls again with leftover garlic butter for shine. Let cool slightly before serving.
