Texas Roadhouse Rolls
Texas Roadhouse Rolls are legendary for a reason - soft, fluffy, buttery, and always served warm with that famous cinnamon honey butter. This copycat Texas Roadhouse rolls recipe shows you exactly how to recreate that same light, pillowy texture at home (yes, even if yeast has intimidated you before). Fresh out of the oven, these taste just like the restaurant — maybe even better.
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup milk
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1 packet active dry yeast 2 1/4 tsp
- 1/4 cup salted butter melted
- 1 egg
- 3 1/2 cups bread flour fluffed, not packed
- 1/2 tsp coarse sea salt
Instructions
- Turn oven to warm.
- Warm milk in the microwave for 50-70 seconds until temp is 110-115°1 1/4 cup milk
- In a small mixing bowl, add warm milk, yeast and sugar. Stir until mixed and let rest 10 minutes until foamy film covers top of mixture.1/3 cup white sugar, 1 packet active dry yeast
- Add in melted butter and egg. Whisk until combined.1/4 cup salted butter, 1 egg
- In a separate large mixing bowl, add bread flour, salt and yeast mixture. Mix together with a spatula until a sticky dough forms.3 1/2 cups bread flour, 1/2 tsp coarse sea salt
- Pull dough out onto clean dry surface and start kneading the dough. No extra flour is needed. Knead dough for 3-5 minutes until the dough forms a smooth ball.
- Spray the sides of the large mixing bowl with olive oil. Add dough to bowl and cover lightly with a towel. Place somewhere warm for 2 hours to rise. (I turned off oven and placed bowl in oven.)
- Remove dough bowl from warm oven. Dough should have doubled in size. Using hand, lightly press center of dough ball to deflate. Turn oven back to warm.
- Turn dough ball out onto clean surface and lightly stretch into a rectangle. Try and keep the dough about 1/2" thick.
- Using a pizza cutter, slice dough into 3" squares (as best you can). Lay squares onto two greased baking sheets with an inch between each square. Turn oven off. Place baking sheets into oven for 30 minutes to rise.
- Remove baking sheets from oven. Turn oven on to 350°. When oven is ready, place baking sheets in oven for 10-15 minutes. Switch sheets half way through if they can't fit on the same rack.
- When tops are starting to turn golden, remove sheet from oven. Brush tops with melted butter. Serve with Texas Roadhouse Butter.
