What You’ll Need

Bread machine (This is optional. You could mix the dough by hand or in a mixer, if you prefer. I, personally, love the time- and energy-savings of a bread machine, but you do you!)
Baking sheets
Parchment paper or silicone mats (optional)
Dough scraper/cutter (optional, but very helpful for dividing the dough evenly)
Tea towels

How to Make the BEST Herbed Rolls

Ingredients

1 cup warm water
2 T butter, softened
1 egg
1 tsp salt
3 ¼ cup bread flour
¼ cup sugar
3 T potato flakes
½ tsp each basil, oregano, thyme, and rosemary (crushed)
2 ½ tsp active dry yeast

Directions {Bread Machine}

Add all ingredients to the bread machine pan in the order specified by the manufacturer. Select dough setting.
When cycle is complete, turn dough onto a floured surface (I just use my silicone mats). Divide into 16 portions and shape each into a ball. Place 2” apart on greased baking sheets. (Or sheets lined with silicone mats.)
Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes.
Bake at 375℉ for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
After baking, brush with a bit of melted butter and sprinkle with coarse salt.
Remove from baking sheets to wire racks to cool.

Helpful Tips

Use a dough scraper/cutter to easily (and more evenly) divide the dough. First, divide the dough in two and form each half into a ball. Then, use your dough cutter to make 4 intersecting cuts across each ball, creating 16 total dough pieces.

For even baking and browning, rotate your pans halfway through cooking.

Brush and sprinkle one pan at a time to ensure the butter is still wet when you sprinkle the salt.
