Dough Ingredients
- 3.5 cups 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour See notes below for measuring
- 1 cup 1 cup whole or 2% milk warmed to 110°F
- 1 large 1 large egg room temperature
- 1 beaten 1 beaten egg for brushing the tops
- 2.25 teaspoons 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
- 1 tablespoon 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
Garlic Butter Topping
- 4.5 tablespoons 4 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 3 tablespoons 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- Flaky sea salt for finishing
Method
Preparation
- Lightly butter the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch pan and set it aside.
- In a small pot, melt the butter and add the minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until the garlic is fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool while you measure the other ingredients.
Dough Making
- In a stand mixing bowl, combine the flour, parsley, sugar, yeast, and salt.
- Add the warmed milk, egg, and the cooled garlic butter mixture.
- Knead on low speed with the dough hook until the dough looks smooth and feels soft and tacky, about 10-12 minutes. If the dough is too sticky, add one tablespoon of flour at a time until you have a workable dough.
Shaping and Rising
- Cut the kneaded dough into 12 equal portions (approximately 67 grams each).
- Shape each piece into a smooth ball, pinching the bottom where the seam comes together to keep it tight.
- Place the shaped dough balls into the prepared baking pan.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel, and set it in a warm place to rise until doubled in size, about 1-2 hours.
Baking
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Brush the tops of the rolls with the beaten egg wash.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.
Making Garlic Butter
- While the rolls are baking, make the garlic butter. In a pot, melt the butter and add the minced garlic.
- Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, then remove from heat and stir in the parsley.
Finishing Touch
- When the rolls come out of the oven, immediately brush them with the garlic butter.
- Sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired, and serve warm!

Notes
You can use olive oil instead of butter for a lighter option, or swap out fresh parsley for dried herbs. Consider adding cheese to the centers for a cheesy garlic roll, or incorporating Italian seasoning into the dough. Store leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To reheat, wrap them in foil and warm them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes.
