    About Garlic Pull-Apart Rolls

    Garlic pull-apart rolls is also known as pull-apart rolls or garlic rolls. This is a popular dinner roll recipe that is enriched with garlic herb butter which makes it irresistable. The bread dough is super soft, light and fluffy while making the inside so buttery.

    The dough is basic pizza dough, you can use store bought pizza dough as well. And the butter can be flavoured with garlic, herbs, dried seasonings. You can use grated parmesan or any cheese in the filling too. You can customize it as per your taste.

    I have also made few other variations to the recipe, including using pesto, red harissa, roasted red pepper pesto along with the butter.

    Garlic Rolls Ingredients

    Garlic bread rolls has the simple dough and the garlic butter spread. The bread dough is very similar to a pizza dough. These are the ingredients which you might need. 

    All Purpose Flour - I used plain flour for making the dough. You can use whole wheat flour for healthier alternative. But it will affect the texture a bit. Still the taste will be great.

    Dry Yeast - yeast helps with the activation of the dough and makes it puffy.

    Salt & Sugar - enhance the taste of the bread and also makes it puffy and soft.

    Oil - I used olive oil in the bread dough. You can use melted butter.

    Ingredients for Making Garlic Butter

    Butter - generous amount of butter is used in the filling. You can use salted or unsalted as you prefer. If you are using salted butter, be cautious when adding salt.

    Garlic - Be generous with the garlic used in the bread. Some recipes uses garlic powder, But I always prefer to use fresh garlic for the intense garlic flavour.

    Italian Seasoning & Herbs - you can use either Italian seasoning or use a combination of your favorite herbs. Along with the dried herbs, I use fresh coriander leaves too.

    Garlic Rolls Preparation

    Making Dough - Mix yeast and sugar with warm water and set this aside for 5 mins.let it foam up. Take flour, salt, oil in a bowl and mix well. Pour yeast mix into the flour and mix well to a dough. Cover it with plastic wrap or damp cloth and set this aside for 1 hour till it is doubled in size.

    Making Garlic Spread - Mix all the ingredients for garlic spread together till it form a smooth paste.

    Shaping Rolls - Take the dough out of the bowl and knead it for 5 min. Roll the dough into a rough rectangle and spread the garlic spread over it. Now roll this into log. Cut into equal portion. Arrange this in a buttered baking pan leaving little space between each of them. Now cover it with a damp cloth and let it rise for 45 min.

    Baking - In the last 10 mins or rising, preheat oven to 200 degree C.Now place this in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 30 mins. Take it out and apply some butter over the top,so that it looks glossy and shiny. Serve hot or warm with a cup of tea.

    • You can any herbs, chilli flakes, black pepper in the butter.
    • Grated cheese, parmesan can be added in the garlic butter.
    • Instead of using plain flour, you can use whole wheat flour as well.

      @deepa.555 naveenIf your bread didn't rise, then your yeast is dead. You can never get buns with dead yeast

      @deepa.555 naveen Always activate your yeast by adding it in warm water with some sugar and leave it to foam up. If it didn't foam up, then ur yeast has expired. You have to throw that away start with a fresh batch of yeast.

      @deepa.555 naveenthen i think you must have poured too hot water over the yeast. You have to use very warm water.
