How to Make Herby Rhodes Rolls
Prep Your Rolls: Start by placing frozen Rhodes Rolls in a greased baking dish, leaving space for them to rise. Cover them loosely with plastic wrap or a clean towel while they thaw.
Let Them Rise: Allow the rolls to sit at room temperature for about 5-6 hours or until they have doubled in size. You’ll know they’re ready when they look puffed up and fluffy.
Melt That Butter: In a small bowl, melt some butter—about half a cup should do it. Add chopped parsley, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt; mix until well combined.
Brush It On: Once your rolls have risen beautifully, generously brush your herb-infused butter mixture over each roll. This step gives those rolls their delectable flavor and shiny finish.
Bake Until Golden: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown on top. The smell will be so enticing you might consider faking an injury just to stay close to the oven!
Savor Every Bite: Once out of the oven, let them cool slightly before serving. Trust me; you’ll want to enjoy these warm!
