Steps

  1. 1

    Mix melted butter with minced garlic, Parmesan, parsley, and Italian seasoning in a small bowl.

  2. 2

    Divide the dough into 16-18 small pieces and roll each into a ball.

  3. 3

    Dip each dough ball into the garlic butter mixture, coating all sides, and arrange them snugly in a greased 6-inch round pan.

  4. 4

    Pour any remaining garlic butter over the top, cover, and let rest for 10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Cook at 330°F for 18-20 minutes until the top is golden brown and the center rolls are cooked through.

  6. 6

    Brush immediately with the extra melted butter and top with remaining parsley and Parmesan before serving warm.

💡

Tip: Pack the dough balls snugly but not too tightly — they need just enough room to expand and create those signature pull-apart seams.
