Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 packet instant yeast
- 1 cup warm water (about 110°F)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 0.25 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter (for Italian butter)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon dried basil
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon salt (for Italian butter)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast.
Add the warm water, melted butter, and milk to the dry ingredients. Mix until a soft dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
Punch down the risen dough and divide it into 12 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and place them in the prepared baking dish.
Cover the rolls loosely with plastic wrap and let them rise for another 20-30 minutes, until puffy.
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until golden brown on top. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
While the rolls bake, prepare the Italian butter by combining the unsalted butter, minced garlic, parsley, oregano, basil, Parmesan cheese, and salt in a small bowl. Mix until well incorporated.
Serve the warm rolls with the Italian butter on the side, or spread a generous amount of butter over the rolls before serving.
