Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Garlic Butter Topping

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, and salt, ensuring even distribution.
  2. Add wet ingredients: Slowly incorporate the warm water and olive oil into the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough begins to form.
  3. Knead the dough: Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for 5 to 7 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
  4. First rise: Place the dough into a greased bowl and cover it with a kitchen towel. Allow it to rise in a warm area for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
  5. Preheat oven: Once risen, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking.
  6. Shape rolls: Punch down the dough to release the air, then divide and shape it into small balls.
  7. Arrange on baking sheet: Place the dough balls evenly spaced on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  8. Prepare garlic butter: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with minced garlic and chopped parsley to create a flavorful topping.
  9. Brush rolls: Generously brush the garlic butter mixture over the surface of each roll, ensuring full coverage.
  10. Bake rolls: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the tops turn a gorgeous golden brown.
  11. Serve warm: Remove from oven and serve the garlic bread rolls warm to enjoy their full, delicious flavor.

Notes

  • Ensure the water is warm but not hot to activate the yeast properly without killing it.
  • Kneading is crucial to develop gluten which gives the rolls their soft texture.
  • You can add extra herbs like rosemary or oregano into the garlic butter for additional flavor.
  • For a crispier crust, bake a small pan of water in the oven to create steam while baking.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the oven to maintain softness.
