Garlic Swirl Rolls A Flavorful Delight Sunday Brunch Bliss

Instructions:

1. Combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar in a bowl. Let stand for 5-10 minutes, or until foamy.
2. In a large bowl or stand mixer, combine the yeast mixture, flour, salt, melted butter, and egg.
3. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic (8-10 minutes by hand or 5-7 minutes with a dough hook).
4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
5. Combine softened butter, minced garlic, parsley, oregano, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix well.
6. Punch down the dough and roll it out into a large rectangle (approx. 12x18 inches / 30x45 cm).
7. Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough.
8. Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut the log into 12 equal pieces.
9. Place the rolls, cut-side up, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, giving them room to expand.
10. Cover the rolls loosely and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until puffy.
11. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
12. Brush the tops of the rolls with egg wash (egg beaten with a tablespoon of milk or water).
13. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
14. Let the rolls cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and chopped parsley (if using). Serve warm.
