How To Make Garlic Butter Rolls

First assemble the following ingredients:

• 8 frozen grands rolls
• 6 tbsp butter
• 6 cloves garlic, finely diced
• 1 green onions, finely diced
• 3 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
• 2 tbsp chopped green onions, optional, garnish
• 2 tbsp chopped parsley, optional, garnish

Use this Method

Arrange. In a skillet lined with parchment paper, arrange rolls so they are together in the pan, touching as closely as possible.

Make Glaze. In a small pan on the stove, melt butter and add garlic, parsley, and green onions. Cook until garlic is fragrant and soft, about 4 minutes. Set aside

Bake. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake rolls in the oven for 15 minutes.

Top and Finish. Using a silicone brush, brush tops of biscuits as they bake with garlic butter mixture. We brush rolls 3-4 times as they cook, to let the buttery flavor sink in. Sprinkle parmesan on top of rolls every time you baste rolls – a tiny bit will do. When rolls are browned on sides and turning golden brown on top, they are done. Remove from oven, serve immediately, and enjoy!

Kitchen notes

Keep rolls close together in the pan. This will help to catch and absorb all the melted butter you use, preventing spills and burns in your pan.

Baste rolls slowly. You want to only add a little garlic butter sauce to each roll at a time – or they will get oily, soggy, and greasy.

Don't Overdo it. a little bit, over and over, does the trick – don't flood your rolls with tons of garlic butter all at once.

Use Pre-made Rolls. While you can use any recipe you like for these rolls, we have designed this recipe to be used with pre-made frozen biscuit rolls for to-die-for good and easy garlic parmesan biscuits everyone will beg for.

A few answers

Can we add herbs to the rolls?

Absolutely—Italian seasoning, parsley, oregano, chives, or rosemary all pair deliciously with garlic and parmesan.

Can we make these ahead of time?

Yes—assemble the rolls and store covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours, then bake when ready. They taste best fresh.

How do we reheat leftover Parmesan Garlic rolls?

Warm them at 300°F for 5–7 minutesor wrap in a damp paper towel and microwave for 10–15 seconds to restore softness.

Can we use canned garlic butter instead of melted butter?

Yes—store-bought garlic butter spreads beautifully and adds flavor, but still add parmesan for the cheesy crust.

What should we do if the tops brown too quickly?

Tent the rolls loosely with foil halfway through baking to prevent over-browning while the centers finish cooking.

Can we make these in the air fryer?

Yes—air fry at 325–330°F for 6–8 minuteschecking early to avoid over-browning. Brush with more garlic butter after cooking.
