1-Mix Dough: Creating Cheesy Garlic Herb Bread Rolls is a fun process that yields soft, flavorful results every time. Start by mixing the dough in a stand mixer bowl, combining 1 cup warm milk, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 whole eggs, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary, 1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme, and 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast. Stir in 2 cups of the 4 cups all-purpose flour to form a rough dough.

2-Knead Dough: Next, attach the dough hook and knead on medium-low speed, gradually adding the remaining flour until the dough comes together. Increase to medium-high speed and knead for 4-5 minutes until it’s smooth, elastic, and slightly tacky add extra flour only if needed to avoid dense rolls.

3-First Rise: For the first rise, place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it, and let it rise for 1 hour until doubled in size. This step is crucial for that airy texture home bakers love.

4-Shape and Second Rise: After rising, gently deflate the dough and divide it into 15 equal pieces on a lightly greased baking pan. Shape each piece into a tight ball by pinching the dough underneath, then place them in the pan, cover, and let rise for another hour until doubled.

5-Bake: Preheat your oven to 375°F, whisk the topping egg, brush it over the rolls, and sprinkle with 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Bake for 20 minutes until golden brown, and serve warm for the best flavor. Remember, you can knead by hand if you don’t have a stand mixer just work the dough until it’s smooth and elastic.
