Have you ever went to Texas Roadhouse and had those pillowy, delectable sweet rolls? I’m convinced they will serve those rolls in Heaven.
We’ve already discussed my ridiculous obsession with baking. If you haven’t read my white bread recipe, you can find it by clicking here. As I said in that post, the amount of flour I go through in my house is almost embarrassing. I say almost because eating these takes every ounce of embarrassment away.
This is my copycat recipe for those amazing Texas Roadhouse rolls. Run to your kitchen right this second and make these fluffy, buttery, super tender rolls. You can thank me later. Don’t try to serve them without slathering them with honey butter, that would be an abomination.
Texas Roadhouse Rolls With Honey Butter
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup warm water around 105°
- 1 cup warm milk around 105°
- 1 large egg room temperature
- 3 tbs butter melted
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 4 cups flour
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
- 1/4 cup melted butter for basting rolls
- 1 stick butter softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- In the bowl of your Kitchenaid add the water, sugar and yeast. Whisk together and allow to bloom for 10-15 minutes until foamy.
- To the bowl of your mixer add the milk, melted butter, egg, garlic salt. Lightly mix everything together, using the dough hook of your mixer, for about 1 minute. Add the flour, 1 cup at a time, and mix. If your dough seems to tacky, you may need to add additional flour. Add flour, 1/2 cup at a time, as needed and mix until the dough comes clean from the sides of the bowl.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Let the dough rise in a warm place until double in size (1-2 hours).
- Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a floured work surface. With a rolling pin, roll out dough in a rectangle to approx. ½ inch in thickness. Using a pizza cutter, divide into 18 square pieces. Place each roll 2 inches apart on parchment lined baking sheets. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and allow to double in size.
- Preheat oven to 350°. When rolls have risen, place on middle rack of oven. Bake 15 minutes or until light golden brown. Remove from oven and immediately brush with melted butter. Trust me, serve them warm!
- While the rolls are baking make your honey butter. To prepare it which together the last four ingredients.
