Preparation

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, add warm water, yeast, sugar and olive oil. Stir together and set aside about 5 minutes or until yeast starts to bubble.
Mix in egg and stir in 1 cup of flour. Add salt and an additional 2 cups of flour, Parmesan cheese and rosemary, stirring until well combined. Add more flour 1/2 cup at a time until dough pulls away from sides of bowl.
Pour onto a well floured surface. Knead for 5 minutes, adding flour about 1/4 to 1/2 cup at a time as needed. Dough should be flexible but not sticky.
Shape into rolls and place in a well-greased baking pan (I used 2 small pans). Cover with a flour sack towel and allow to rise for about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 400ºF. Bake rolls for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
While rolls are baking, add butter and minced garlic to a small saucepan. Cook over low heat for 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
When you remove rolls from oven, immediately brush them with garlic butter and devour!
Yields 20 rolls.
Enjoy!
