Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Warm milk (110°F/43°C)
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 Large egg
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (chopped, optional)
- 1 Egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon Water (for egg wash)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt. Stir to combine evenly.
Add the warm milk, softened butter, and egg to the dry ingredients. Mix until the dough starts to come together.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic. If using a stand mixer, knead with the dough hook for 6-8 minutes.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal portions.
Flatten each portion into a disk and place about 2 tablespoons of shredded mozzarella in the center. Fold the edges of the dough around the cheese and pinch to seal, forming a ball.
Place the cheese-filled dough balls seam-side down onto a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.
Cover the rolls loosely with a kitchen towel and let them rise for another 20-30 minutes, until puffy.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the tops of the rolls with the egg wash.
In another small bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and parsley (if using). Sprinkle this mixture over the tops of the rolls.
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cheese is bubbling inside.
Remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. They’re best enjoyed warm!
