    Herbed Dinner rolls

    How to Make Herbed Dinner Rolls:

    This side dish recipe is so simple but it does require a long bread rise time.

    Most frozen dinner rolls usually take between 30 minutes - 5 hours to let the dough rise, until the size has approximately doubled since the final shaping. For that reason, find a frozen dinner roll brand that requires the least bread rise time, especially if you are in a hurry. I like this recipe because I can focus on other parts of the meal, which is especially useful during holiday prep!

    So here are some steps to follow:

    Step 1. Choose a pan

    • 11' skillet for up to 12 rolls
    • 9” x 13” Baking Pan 20 pull-apart rolls
    • 8” Baking Pan- 9 pull-apart rolls
    • 11″ x 17″ Baking Sheet 35 pull-apart rolls

    Step 2. Place frozen rolls in pan

    Spray pan with cooking spray and place balls of dough evenly spaced in pan. Or, follow the cooking recommendation on the packaging.

    Step 3. Let the dough rise

    It can take anywhere from 2-5 hours. In this recipe, I used Bridgford and it required 2 hours rise time. Other brands like Rhodes Bake-N-Serv require 3-5 hours rise time.

    Step 4. Make herb butter

    Combine melted unsalted butter with dried Italian seasoning, basil, thyme, and parsley. Add a pinch of salt if necessary!

    Brush each roll with melted butter. Let rolls rise until double in size or until the rolls fill up the pan.

    Step 5. Bake the herbed dinner rolls

    You need to follow the cooking time and recommendation on the product packaging. It could take anywhere from 10-25 minutes.

    Remove from oven and brush with additional melted butter.

    How to Store Leftover Dinner Rolls:

    Properly stored, dinner rolls will last for about 5 to 7 days at normal room temperature, or put them in a freezer to extend the shelf life.
