Delight in soft, buttery dinner rolls infused with garlic and parsley, perfect for any meal or special occasion.

Ingredients

Dough

  • 1 cup whole milk (warm (around 110F))
  • 3 teaspoons active dry yeast or instant yeast
  • 1/3 cup sugar (70g)
  • 3 3/4 cups all purpose flour (490g)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1.5 teaspoons salt
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter (softened at room temperature (85g))
  • 1 egg yolk egg wash (with 1 tbsp milk)
  • 1/4 cup salted butter (57g)
  • 2-3 cloves garlic (finely chopped)
  • 1-2 tbsp freshly chopped parsley

Instructions 

  • Mix warm milk and yeast until combined, then add remaining ingredients and stir to form a shaggy dough.
  • Knead the dough for 15 minutes until smooth and elastic, then let it rise in a greased bowl until doubled in size (~90 minutes).
  • Punch down the dough, divide into 12 pieces, shape into balls, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Brush the rolls with egg wash, let rise for 30-45 minutes, then brush again and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20-22 minutes until golden.
  • Prepare garlic butter by melting butter, sautéing garlic for 1-2 minutes, then mixing in parsley. Brush hot rolls with garlic butter before serving.

Notes

For best results, ensure the dough is kneaded until it passes the window-pane test and rises in a warm, humid environment.
