Dinner rolls are good. Garlic herb dinner rolls are unforgettable. Soft, pillowy, pull-apart perfection brushed with garlic butter and fresh parsley. Serve them with pasta, soup, or roast chicken. Warning: they’ll steal the show.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Make Dough
Whisk flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Add warm milk, warm water, eggs, and softened butter. Knead 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and rise 1-2 hours until doubled.
Shape Rolls
Punch down dough. Divide into 12 equal pieces. Roll into smooth balls. Place in a greased 9×13 baking dish or cast iron skillet. Cover and rise 30-45 minutes until puffy.
Bake
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake rolls 18-22 minutes until golden brown.
Garlic Butter
Mix melted butter, garlic, parsley, and salt. Brush over warm rolls immediately after baking.
Serve
Serve warm. Pull apart. Try not to eat all twelve.
