Equipment

  • large mixing bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Kitchen towel
  • Pastry brush

Ingredients

For the Dough

  • 3.5 cups All-purpose flour ensures the perfect texture for fluffiness
  • 1 cup Warm milk activates the yeast
  • 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted adds richness and moisture
  • 0.25 cups Sugar helps to activate the yeast
  • 1 teaspoon Salt balances sweetness
  • 3 teaspoons Active dry yeast key to achieving rise

For the Garlic Butter Topping

  • 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, softened creates a luscious garlic butter mix
  • 2 tablespoons Minced garlic infuses rolls with rich flavor
  • 1 teaspoon Dried parsley adds freshness
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder deepens garlic flavor

Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour and salt. Create a well in the center and pour in the frothy yeast mixture and melted butter. Mix until a dough forms.
  • Transfer the dough onto a floured surface. Knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Form into a ball.
  • Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl and cover. Let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Punch down the risen dough, divide into 12 pieces, and shape into balls. Arrange on a greased baking sheet.
  • In a small bowl, mix softened butter, minced garlic, dried parsley, and garlic powder. Brush generously over the tops of each roll.
  • Cover with a towel and let rise again for about 30 minutes before baking.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Remove and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
