Ingredients
- All-purpose flour

- Sugar
- Salt
- Unsalted butter
- Fresh garlic
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine warm water and sugar; sprinkle instant yeast on top and let sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
- Stir in flour and salt until a shaggy dough forms.
- Knead on a floured surface for about 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled (about 1 hour).
- Punch down the dough, divide into 12 portions, shape into balls, and place in a greased baking dish.
- Mix melted butter with minced garlic; brush over rolls before letting them rise again for 30 minutes.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 20 minutes until golden brown.
Notes

– If using whole wheat flour, substitute half of the all-purpose flour for extra nutrition.
– Allow enough rising time to achieve lightness in the rolls.
