Rolling in with THE dinner roll of Thanksgiving 2018!!!
Possibly the dinner roll of every day for the rest of our lives.
Roasted garlic? √ Asiago cheese? √ Fluffiest-ever-ever-EVER cornmeal interior? √
Some people aren’t dinner roll kinda people on Thanksgiving, guys. I KNOW! I live for piling half my plate with all the roasted garlic asiago cornmeal dinner rolls and all the butter.
So these dinner rolls follow the base for this keeper recipe. I make those dinner rolls EVERY year for Thanksgiving and they’re basically foolproof. (you can also do the overnight option if you wanna make these ahead of time!)
The way we’re shaking things up for THESE babies is…….roasted garlic + cornmeal in the actual dough. More roasted garlic in a buttery topping brushed on top. Asiago cheese covering every.freaking.inch.
^^^ Please notice and swoon over how freaking FLUFFY these are inside.
It will take everything in your power to resist from attacking these straight outta the pan. Leaving no survivors.

Instructions
Dinner Rolls
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand 5 minutes until foamy. Add honey, melted, butter, egg, and garlic mixing on low speed until smooth. Add salt, cornmeal, and 3-1/2 cups flour to bowl and increase speed to medium until dough pulls away from sides of bowl, adding more flour if necessary.
- Knead dough on medium speed 4-5 minutes until dough is smooth and elastic. Remove from bowl and form into a ball. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch dough down and remove from bowl. Divide into 12 equal pieces and roll each portion into a smooth ball. Place dinner rolls in a greased 9x13 baking pan and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise until rolls are doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
- Bake rolls at 375F 20-25 minutes or until a deep golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside for a moment.
Topping
- In a small bowl, whisk melted butter and roasted garlic. Brush over rolls and top with Asiago cheese and ground black pepper. Broil rolls under high heat 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted and browned. Cool rolls 10 minutes then serve warm. Enjoy!
