These Garlic Butter Parmesan Rolls are rich, fluffy, and infused with roasted garlic and parmesan cheese. Made with all-purpose flour, eggs, whole milk, and slathered in garlic-parsley butter, they’re golden brown, fragrant, and the ultimate cozy side dish made easier with the help of a pressure cooker.
Preheat oven to 400°F. Drizzle olive oil over garlic heads, wrap in foil, and roast for 35–40 minutes until soft and golden.
Let garlic cool slightly, then squeeze cloves out and mash into a paste.
In a large bowl, whisk warm milk and sugar. Sprinkle yeast on top and let sit 5–10 minutes until foamy.
Add melted butter, egg, and yolk to bowl. Stir in flour and salt to form sticky dough.
Knead dough on floured surface for 6–8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place dough in greased bowl, cover, and let rise 1 hour or until doubled.
Punch down dough and divide into 12 balls. Arrange in greased baking dish and let rise again 20–30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375°F. Blend roasted garlic paste with softened butter and grated parmesan.
Brush rolls with garlic butter mixture.
Bake rolls for 18–22 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Brush baked rolls with remaining warm garlic butter.
Sprinkle with chopped parsley and extra parmesan if desired. Serve warm.
