Texas Roadhouse-Style Rolls recipe, including step-by-step instructions for making the rolls and the Honey Cinnamon Butter.

Texas Roadhouse-Style Rolls with Honey Cinnamon Butter

Ingredients

For the Rolls:

  • 1 cup warm milk (about 110°F, not too hot to touch)
  • 1 package (2 1/4 teaspoons) active dry yeast
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra for kneading
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup melted butter (for the dough)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup additional melted butter (for brushing on top, optional)

For the Honey Cinnamon Butter:

  • 1/2 cup softened butter (unsalted)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1: Activate the Yeast

  1. In a small bowl or measuring cup, warm the milk to about 110°F. It should feel warm but not hot to the touch.
  2. Stir in the sugar and active dry yeast. Let the mixture sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy and bubbly, which indicates that the yeast is activated.

Step 2: Make the Dough

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook (or in a large mixing bowl if mixing by hand), add 3 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour and salt.
  2. Add the foamy milk and yeast mixture, 1 large egg, and 1/3 cup melted butter. Mix on low speed until the dough starts to come together.
  3. Once combined, increase the speed to medium and knead for 6-8 minutes (or knead by hand for about 10 minutes) until the dough is smooth, soft, and slightly sticky. If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it’s manageable but still soft.

Step 3: First Rise

  1. Lightly grease a large bowl with oil or cooking spray. Place the dough in the bowl, turning it once to coat with oil. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap.
  2. Let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.

Step 4: Shape the Rolls

  1. Punch down the dough to release any air bubbles. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
  2. Roll the dough into a rectangle, about 1/2 inch thick.
  3. Use a sharp knife or a dough cutter to cut the dough into squares or rectangles, about 2 inches by 2 inches. You should get around 12-16 rolls, depending on the size.
  4. Arrange the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased, spacing them about an inch apart.

Step 5: Second Rise

  1. Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let them rise again in a warm place for about 30-40 minutes, or until they have puffed up.

Step 6: Bake the Rolls

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
  3. Once out of the oven, brush the tops with melted butter if desired, for a soft, buttery finish.

Honey Cinnamon Butter

  1. In a small mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup softened butter, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 2 tablespoons honey, and 2 tablespoons powdered sugar.
  2. Stir well until smooth and creamy.
  3. Serve the warm rolls with the Honey Cinnamon Butter spread.

Tips

  • Proofing the Dough: If your kitchen is cool, you can create a warm environment by turning on your oven to its lowest setting for a few minutes, then turning it off. Place the dough inside to rise.
  • Make-Ahead: You can make the dough the night before and let it rise in the refrigerator overnight for added convenience.
  • Leftovers: Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container. They are best served fresh but can be reheated in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to make them soft again.

Enjoy these fluffy, buttery rolls with a touch of sweetness from the Honey Cinnamon Butter! They’re perfect for family dinners or holiday gatherings.
