How to make homemade garlic rolls?

Follow this simple step-by-step guide. Begin by preparing the yeast mixture, then knead your dough. Once the dough has doubled, shape the rolls and brush them with the flavorful garlic butter. Bake until golden brown. And that’s it!

Here is the recipe for the garlic rolls:

Ingredients for the dough:

- 17.6 oz of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of sugar
- 0.88 oz of fresh yeast
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- Approximately 9 fl oz of water
- Approximately 1.7 fl oz of warmed milk

Ingredients for the garlic mixture:

- 5 cloves of garlic
- 4 tablespoons of butter
- 1 teaspoon of Provençal herbs
- ½ teaspoon of dried oregano
- A pinch of salt

Preparation:

1. Begin with the starter. Crumble the yeast in a bowl, add sugar, 2 tablespoons of flour, and the warm milk. Mix well and leave it in a warm spot for 15 minutes.

2. Sift the flour into a larger bowl, add the salt, the prepared starter, warm water, and oil. Knead the mixture vigorously until all components are thoroughly integrated. Adjust the consistency with additional flour or water if necessary. Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise until it doubles.

3. Once risen, divide the dough into medium-sized balls. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and allow them to rise for about 20 minutes.
4. While waiting, prepare the garlic mixture. Peel and press the garlic, then combine it with the melted butter, salt, and herbs.

5. Add the garlic mixture to the rolls and bake in a preheated oven at 356°F for approximately 20 minutes or until they turn golden and emit a fragrant aroma.

6. Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving.

Additional tips:

- Feel free to incorporate your favorite herbs, such as basil, thyme, or rosemary, into the dough for extra flavor.

- These garlic rolls are the perfect addition to breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
- They also make a wonderful snack for barbecues or picnics.

- While these rolls taste best when warm, they can easily be reheated in the oven or pan for convenience.
