Rosemary Garlic Dinner Rolls

Every good dinner starts with these Rosemary Garlic Dinner Rolls. The smell of fresh rosemary and warm bread will be so enticing, it’s hard to wait for them to cool!

Rosemary Dinner Rolls with Garlic

Every year, I look forward to my husband Levi making these insanely delicious and buttery rosemary rolls. There really is nothing like warm bread fresh out of the oven.. and a good ‘ol Wyoming boy who knows how to bake. He works on them for a few hours, allowing the whole house to smell of country side French bakery. The second these babies come out of the oven, I have a buttered knife in hand and am ready to pull these flaky rolls apart!

Fresh rosemary makes it’s appearance during the festive holidays, and these rolls are a perfect excuse to go grab some out of your kitchen garden! Aromatic, fresh, herbaceous deliciousness.

If you’re like me and have ZERO self control around home made, straight out the oven, good ‘ol home cookin’ kinda carby things, these rolls are calling your name. Grab your buttered up knife and prepare for the best dinner rolls you’ve experienced.

Tips to make these dinner rolls easier

• Use good quality and fresh yeast. Old yeast will sometimes effect bread by not allowing it to properly rise.
• Use whole milk. We don’t use extra processed milk up in here!
• Use fresh rosemary. If you cannot get your hands on some fresh rosemary, use half the amount of dried rosemary.

How to make dinner rolls

1. Dust off your countertop mixer and the paddle and dough hook. Combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Whisk it together lightly to help the sugar dissolve using the paddle attachment. Let the yeast get all bubbly and foamy- that’s how you know it’s activated!
2. Add the butter, milk, salt, rosemary, garlic powder and flour to the mixing bowl. Attached the dough hook to the mixer. Set the mixer on medium low and allow the dough to come together. Mix the dinner roll dough for 3-4 minutes until everything is incorporated. If the dough is too sticky, add 1 TBS of flour at a time. Do not over mix the dough as it will make really dense dinner rolls.
3. Oil a medium sized bowl and place the dough in it. Place a damp towel or plastic wrap over the dough and let it rest and rise in a warm place for 15 minutes.
4. Once the dinner roll dough has risen, punch the dough down. Break the dough into 12 equal portions. Grabbing the edges of the dough balls, tuck them underneath it to create the perfect dinner roll shape. Grease a cast iron pan and place the dough balls in it.
5. Cover the cast iron pan and rolls with a damp towel or plastic wrap and allow them to rise for 45 minutes, or until the dough has doubled.
6. In the mean time, preheat your oven to 350 ° F. Once the dough has doubled, make the egg wash. Crack an egg and whisk it, then brush it on top of all the dinner rolls. Place the cast iron pan in the oven and allow the rolls to bake for 25-30 minutes.
7. Remove the rolls from the oven and serve with salted butter or a high quality olive oil and herb blend.
