For the Dough

  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Mix warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast in a large bowl. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy. Add melted butter, egg, and salt. Gradually incorporate flour, mixing until soft dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth. Let rise in a greased bowl for 1 hour until doubled.
  • Roast garlic until golden and fragrant, then mash into a paste. Mix with olive oil, parsley, and grated cheese in a small bowl to create the filling.
  • Once dough has doubled, punch down gently. Roll out into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick. Spread garlic filling evenly, then roll into a log and slice into pieces about 1-1.5 inches thick.
  • Place cut rolls in a greased baking dish with space between each. Cover with a towel and let rise for another 30-40 minutes until puffed up.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake rolls for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Serve warm for best flavor with optional toppings like olive oil or marinara for dipping.
