Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups all-purpose flour

- 1 cup warm water (110°F/43°C)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp sugar
- ¼ cup melted butter
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp chopped parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Activate the yeast: Combine warm water and sugar in a bowl; sprinkle yeast on top. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Mix the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and melted butter; stir until combined into a sticky dough.
- Knead: Flour your countertop lightly and knead the dough for about 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- First rise: Place dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let rise in a warm place until doubled—about 1 hour.
- Shape rolls: Punch down the dough, divide it into equal pieces, and shape each piece into small balls.
- Second rise: Place shaped rolls on greased baking sheets close together but not touching; let rise again for 30 minutes while preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake: Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Drizzle with melted garlic butter mixed with parsley before serving.
