Prep Time10 minutes
Cook Time25 minutes
Total Time35 minutes
Servings: 8 rolls

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups whole milk Greek yogurt
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 clove garlic minced (for garlic butter)
  • 1 tablespoon parsley chopped (for garlic butter and optional garnish)
  • flaky sea salt for sprinkling (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, 3 tsp baking powder, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp salt until evenly combined.
  • Add 1 3/4 cups Greek yogurt to the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture comes together in clumps; do not overmix.
  • Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently gather it into a ball, adding 1–2 tablespoons more flour only if it is excessively sticky; press into a thick disk.
  • Cut the disk into 8 equal pieces and roll each piece into a smooth ball using your hands; place the rolls on the prepared pan spaced slightly apart.
  • Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush the tops of the rolls with the beaten egg.
  • Bake for 24–28 minutes, checking at 20 minutes and then every couple of minutes until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
  • While the rolls rest for a few minutes, melt 2 tablespoons butter and stir in 1 minced garlic clove and 1 tablespoon chopped parsley to make garlic butter.
  • Brush the tops of the warm rolls with the garlic butter and sprinkle with flaky sea salt and additional parsley if desired.
