Ingredients
Scale
Dough
- 1 pound pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
Garlic Butter Spread
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Topping
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Shape the Dough: Divide the pizza dough into 12 equal pieces and roll each piece into a smooth ball. Arrange the dough balls spaced slightly apart on the baking sheet.
- Make Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper to create a flavorful garlic butter mixture.
- Brush First Coat: Brush half of the garlic butter evenly over the surface of each dough ball, coating them for flavor and moisture.
- Add Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese generously over the buttered dough balls to add a cheesy crust as they bake.
- Bake the Rolls: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the rolls for 18 to 20 minutes until they turn golden brown and are cooked through.
- Brush Remaining Butter: Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and immediately brush with the remaining garlic butter mixture to infuse extra flavor while they are warm.
- Serve Warm: Enjoy the garlic bread rolls warm alongside your favorite pasta, soup, or salad.
Notes
- For extra cheesy rolls, sprinkle shredded mozzarella on top before baking.
- These rolls pair perfectly with pasta, soup, or salad for a complete meal.
