Ingredients

  • 1 cup warm milk I like it to be about 100 degrees
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 ½ teaspoon instant yeast
  • 1 ½ cup whole wheat flour I used spelt, but you can use white or red, kamut, einkorn, rye, etc.
  • 1 ½-2 cups all-purpose flour

Garlic Parmesan Filling

  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
  • ½ cup finely grated parmesan
  • 2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients for the bread dough to your mixer. Start with 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour. Mix on medium speed for 1 minute. Check the dough, you want it to be tacky, but not too tacky (sticky).
  • If you need to add more flour, add another ¼-1/2 cup. Mix and check again. Once the dough is ready, mix on medium speed for 6 minutes.
  • Cover and let the dough rise in a warm place until it is doubled. In my house, this takes between 30 minutes- 1 hour 30 minutes. It will depend on how cool the house is and what the humidity is.
  • Combine your filling ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. Roll your dough on a lightly floured surface to a rectangle about 12 inches by 18 inches. Spread half of the garlic parmesan fill over the rectangle.
  • Then fold the rectangle in half. It should now be 6 inches by 18 inches. Cut the dough into strips. They should be about ¾-1 inch strips by 6 inches. You can see in the photos in the post.
  • Twist all the pieces and place them on a baking sheet. I used 2 for mine, but you can squeeze them onto 1 if you want.
  • Cover and let them rise until they are doubled. At the end of the rising time, preheat your oven to 395 degrees.
  • When the rolls are doubled, place them in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes until they are golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and brush with the garlic parmesan mixture.
  • That is it! Enjoy these while they are piping hot. That is how we like them best!
