Ingredients
Scale
Dough
- 1 pound pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
Garlic Butter Mixture
- 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
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lightly greasing it or lining it with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- 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 prepared baking sheet.
- Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper until combined to make the garlic butter mixture.
- Brush and Add Cheese: Brush half of the garlic butter mixture generously over the tops of the dough balls, then sprinkle each with the grated Parmesan cheese.
- Bake the Rolls: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the rolls for 18 to 20 minutes, or until they become golden brown and are cooked through.
- Final Touch: Once baked, remove the rolls from the oven and immediately brush the tops with the remaining garlic butter mixture to lock in extra flavor and moisture.
- Serve Warm: Serve the garlic bread rolls warm for the best taste experience, perfect alongside your favorite pasta, soup, or salad.
Notes
- For extra cheesy rolls, sprinkle shredded mozzarella on top before baking to add a gooey, melty texture.
- These rolls pair exceptionally well with pasta dishes, hearty soups, or fresh salads, making them a versatile side.
