A few days ago, I shared with you the skillet dinner rolls recipe, using a homemade 60 minutes bread dough recipe that my baking assistant Kendoll swears by.

Today, I am sharing with you this garlic Parmesan dinner rolls recipe that is even better. They’re sinfully good!
These dinner rolls use the same bread dough, with garlic-herb butter and Parmesan cheese. I personally love these rolls more as they are so dainty and pretty, tied into beautiful knots and baked to golden brown glory. Every bite is bursting with the garlicky and buttery flavors, with the cheesy nuance. I had so many of these when they were out of the oven, I didn’t even need butter, they were just amazing.
Make dozens of these for the upcoming holiday season, for Thanksgiving and Christmas! You will love them, I promise you.

I found just brushing top of roll didn’t really add much flavor overall. Tasted like your basic roll with a hint of flavor.
I liked recipe for ease of steps.
I will try again and see if I can amp up flavor.
Just tried to make your rolls but one important information was missing, the oven temperature for baking the rolls.

Can you use less sugar Or is it 5 tablespoons due tot he amount of yeast being 2 packets?? How much does this yield?? Can you use less yeast..I make a large loaf of Bread recipe that I can turn into Cinnamon Buns, Christmas Bread, in a Pullman pan size pan..It’s 1packet or 2 tablespoons yeast with dry milk & only 2 tablespoons sugar..Could I use that recipe and add the seasoning to make this??
Still learning to make breads thanks ?? for any information Sincerely, Shey
5 tablespoons sugar is due to the amount of yeast. by shorting the sugar with that much yeast it may impact the growth of the rolls and the fluffiness of them. I found it yields around 24 knots. I don’t see why you couldn’t use the recipe you have and just add the seasoning to that mix. I found I like to make these without the garlic and coat in cinnamon sugar and drizzle with sweetened cream cheese so like a cinnamon roll knot .
I did and it came out amazing!
can you freeze this dough?
I don’t think so!
I was in the understanding that any dough was freezable after its first rise ??
Made these with spaghetti tonight for dinner. They were delicious and everyone loved them. I used fast rise yeast since I didn’t have enough regular active yeast. I used 4 tsp fast rise yeast. I mixed everything in my mixer bowl to save on dishes and then used my bread hook to knead. Made 22 knot rolls and then I ran out of rom on my tray so I made 2 breadsticks. I also didn’t have any shredded Parm on hand so I used cheddar.
This for the information Shey
How much instant quick rise yeast will I use.
Did it say instant? I didn’t see that It specified??
Thx Shey
I agree with allison can we get some clarification on yeast please.
Same here
This is the first bread recipe I’ve tried and have been 99% satisfied. The only thing these need is a bit of salt before baking. Will definitely make these again.
All bread recipes require salt for proper activation of the sugar and yeast from my understanding Does it not call for Salt?
I have made these again and again ! My family loves them and they disapear !
