Ingredients
  • 1 cup whole milk, warmed
  • 2 ¼ teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 4 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 cups bread flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan
  • 1 teaspoon dried garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoon grated Parmesan
  • 2 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 4 ounces butter, softened
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Directions
  1. Combine the warm milk in a bowl with active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until it becomes foamy on top.
  2. Pour the yeast mixture into your stand mixer bowl. Add 4 tablespoons of melted butter and 2 beaten eggs. Mix on low speed for about 1 minute until combined.
  3. Add 3 cups bread flour and 1 teaspoon salt. Mix on low speed until the dough looks shaggy.
  4. Switch the mixer to medium speed and knead the dough for 8 minutes. The dough should become smooth and slightly sticky.
  5. On low speed, mix in 3 minced garlic cloves and ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese until evenly distributed (about 1 minute).
  6. Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Let it sit in a warm spot for 1 hour until doubled in size.
  7. Punch down the dough gently to release air.
  8. Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball.
  9. Arrange the balls close together in a greased 9 x 13-inch baking pan.
  10. Cover the pan loosely with a towel and let rise for 45 minutes until puffy and touching.
  11. Mix together the dried garlic, dried oregano, ½ teaspoon salt, and 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan in a small bowl.
  12. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  13. Brush the tops of rolls with 3 tablespoons melted butter, then sprinkle the garlic-herb-Parmesan mixture evenly over all the rolls.
  14. Mix together ¼ cup softened butter, 2 minced garlic cloves, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  15. Bake the rolls for 16-18 minutes until golden brown on top and serve them with garlic butter on the side for dipping or spreading on warm rolls.
