Recipe variations and substitute ideas
- All Purpose Flour - instead of bread flour.
- Salted Butter - this can add a nice flavor to the garlic butter.
- Black Pepper - another flavor that could be added to the garlic butter.
- Olive Oil - brush with this instead of butter.
- Fresh Herbs - use your favorite with the parsley.
- Garlic Powder - instead of fresh garlic.
- Flaky Sea Salt - sprinkle some after brushing the butter on top.
- Parmesan Cheese - grated parmesan cheese on top of the rolls is divine.
- Instant Yeast - instead of active dry yeast. You can skip the second rise with this and shape the rolls right away. Reduces rise time.

How to store leftovers
Store the garlic butter rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
You could keep them at room temperature, but that could only be for 1 day.
These dinner rolls freeze well, so store in a freezer safe container for up to 3 months.
Mel's kitchen notes
For the best warm place, heat the oven for a couple minutes then turn off. Store the bowl with the covered dough in here - it'll help the rolls to rise nicely.
Use a kitchen scale and weigh the flour out, for accuracy.
