  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 16 rolls

Ingredients

Dough

  • 1¼ cups warm water (95-105°F)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 Tbsp. yeast (instant or platinum)
  • ⅓ cup canola oil
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 3½ cups all-purpose flour

Topping

  • 4 tbsp melted butter
  • 2 tbsp granulated garlic
  • ¼ cup parmesan cheese (shredded or grated)
  • 2 tsp parsley

Instructions

  1. Prepare baking sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or non-stick liner and set it aside for later use.
  2. Proof yeast: In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Allow the mixture to proof for 2-5 minutes until it becomes foamy, indicating that the yeast is active.
  3. Mix dough: Add canola oil, salt, egg, and flour to the yeast mixture. Stir until the ingredients are combined to form a dough. If the dough is too sticky, gradually add more flour until it is manageable.
  4. Shape rolls: Divide the dough into 16 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a smooth roll. For light and fluffy rolls, gently knead the dough before shaping. (See notes below for kneading tips.)
  5. Let dough rise: Place the shaped rolls on the prepared baking sheet and let them rise in a warm place for 5-10 minutes. For a cozy rising spot, you can place them near a warm fireplace or a similarly warm area in your kitchen.
  6. Apply topping: Brush the risen rolls generously with melted butter, then evenly sprinkle granulated garlic, parmesan cheese, and parsley over the top.
  7. Preheat oven and bake: Preheat your oven to 375ºF. Bake the rolls for 18-20 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Final touch: Remove rolls from the oven and immediately spread additional melted butter on top before serving for extra flavor and moisture.

Notes

  • Ensure that the water used to proof the yeast is between 95-105°F to activate the yeast properly without killing it.
  • If the dough feels too sticky to work with, gradually add a tablespoon of flour at a time until manageable.
  • Kneading is optional after mixing but can help develop gluten for fluffier rolls. Knead gently for 3-5 minutes before dividing and shaping.
  • Allowing the rolls to rise in a warm, draft-free spot helps speed up the rising process.
  • You can substitute canola oil with olive oil for a richer flavor if desired.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
