Ingredients

Scale

For the Rolls:

4 1/2 tablespoons (60g) unsalted butter

2 tablespoons minced garlic

3 1/2 cups + 1 tablespoon (434g) all-purpose flour (see notes for measuring)

3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

1 tablespoon (15g) granulated sugar

2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast

1 teaspoon fine sea salt

1 cup (225g) whole or 2% milk, warmed to 110°F

1 large egg (55g), room temperature

1 beaten egg, for brushing the tops

For the Garlic Butter:

2 tablespoons (28g) unsalted butter

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Flaky sea salt, for finishing

Instructions

Prepare the Baking Pan:

Lightly butter the bottom and sides of a 9×13 pan and set it aside.

Make the Garlic Butter for the Dough:

In a small pot, melt the butter and add the minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool while measuring the other ingredients.

Mix the Dough:

In a stand mixing bowl, combine the flour, parsley, sugar, yeast, and salt. Add the warmed milk, egg, and cooled garlic butter. Knead on low speed with the dough hook until the dough is smooth, soft, and slightly tacky, about 10-12 minutes. If the dough is too sticky, add one tablespoon of flour at a time until workable.

Shape the Rolls:

Divide the kneaded dough into 12 equal portions (about 67g each). Shape each piece into a smooth ball, pinching the bottom to seal the seam. Place the dough balls in the prepared baking pan. Cover with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1-2 hours.

Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).

Bake the Rolls:

Brush the tops of the risen rolls with the beaten egg wash. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown.

Make the Garlic Butter Topping:

While the rolls are baking, melt the butter in a small pot and add the minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, then remove from heat and stir in the parsley.

Finish the Rolls:

When the rolls come out of the oven, immediately brush them with the garlic butter. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Measuring Flour: Use the spoon-and-level method for measuring flour or, for best results, use a kitchen scale.
  • Using Active Dry Yeast: If substituting active dry yeast for instant yeast, activate it first by stirring it into the warm milk with a sprinkle of sugar. Let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
  • Storage: Store rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days.
  • Freezing: Cool rolls completely, then transfer to an airtight container and freeze for up to 1 month.
  • Make-Ahead: Shape the rolls, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. Let them double in size at room temperature before baking.
