Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 4 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of active dry yeast, 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Warm 1 cup of milk until lukewarm, then stir in ¼ cup of melted unsalted butter. Gradually pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients, mixing until a sticky dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the kneaded dough in a lightly greased bowl and cover it with a clean kitchen towel. Let it rise in a warm, draft-free area for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
- In a small bowl, mix together ½ cup of minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of fresh herbs, and ¼ cup of melted butter. Combine well and set aside.
- Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently to release air. Transfer it to a floured surface and roll it out into a rectangle approximately ¼ inch thick. Spread the garlic filling evenly over the dough. Roll the dough tightly from the long side into a log, pinching the edges to seal. Cut the rolled dough into 12 equal slices.
- Place the sliced rolls in a greased baking sheet, cover with a kitchen towel, and let them rise again for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Once preheated, bake the Garlic-Swirl Rolls for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack. Serve warm.
