Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
  • 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 egg, beaten, for egg wash

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm milk and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Create a well in the center and pour in the melted butter and yeast mixture, mixing until a soft dough begins to form.
  3. Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead it for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough into a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour until it has doubled in size.
  5. In a small bowl, mix together the parsley, garlic, oregano, black pepper, and olive oil.
  6. Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a large rectangle. Spread the herb filling evenly, leaving about an inch of the edges to seal.
  7. Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut into 12 equal pieces.
  8. Place the rolls cut side up in a greased baking dish, cover again, and let rise for another 30 minutes.
  9. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Brush the tops of the rolls with the beaten egg for a shiny finish.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until they are golden brown and perfectly fluffy.

Notes

Use a kitchen thermometer for accurate yeast activation. Experiment with different herbs for flavor variations. Allow sufficient rising time for the best texture.
