Best 4 Pull Apart Parker House Rolls Recipes

PULL-APART PARKER HOUSE ROLLS WITH BUTTER POOLS

Steps:

• For the rolls: Combine 1/2 cup of the milk, the sugar and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add 9 tablespoons of the butter, half of the flour, half of the remaining milk and the kosher salt. Mix on medium speed until combined, about 1 minute. Add the egg and mix until combined. Add the remaining flour and milk. Knead on medium-high speed until the dough is smooth and pulls away from the bowl, about 6 minutes.
• Melt the remaining 7 tablespoons of butter. Transfer 2 tablespoons to a small bowl and set aside to brush on the rolls after they are baked.
• Brush a large bowl with some of the remaining melted butter and add the dough. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place until doubled in size, about 2 hours.
• Brush a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and the outside of three 4-ounce ramekins with melted butter. Place the ramekins so they are evenly spaced in the baking dish. Divide the dough into 17 equal pieces (about 2 1/2 ounces each). Gently roll each piece into balls. Arrange them in the baking dish around the ramekins. Generously brush each roll with some of the remaining melted butter and sprinkle with the flaky sea salt. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place until about 50 percent bigger, about 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, arrange a rack on the lower third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.
• Bake until the rolls are golden and the internal temperature reaches 200 degrees F, 20 to 25 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through. Remove from the oven and brush the rolls with the reserved 2 tablespoons butter.
• For the flavored butters: While the baking dish is still hot, place 4 tablespoons of the butter in each ramekin. Add the parsley and garlic to one ramekin. Add the Parmesan and red pepper flakes to another ramekin. Add the olives and thyme to the last ramekin. Gently stir the butter and flavorings to combine.

PARKER HOUSE ROLLS

Steps:

• Spray a half sheet pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
• Place the milk, sugar, yeast, flour, egg yolks, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Combine on low speed for 1 minute. Change the paddle attachment to the dough hook and rest the dough for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Add 2 ounces of the room temperature butter and mix on low speed. Increase the speed to medium and mix until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and you are able to gently pull the dough into a thin sheet that light will pass through, about 8 minutes.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and roll and shape with hands to form a large ball. Return dough to the bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and set aside in a warm, dry place to rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Remove the dough from the bowl and roll into a 16 by 3-inch log. Use a bench knife to cut the dough into 1 3/4-ounce portions, about 16 rolls. Using your loosely cupped hand, roll each portion on the counter until they tighten into small balls. Working 1 at a time, use a rolling pin to roll each small ball into a 3-inch circle or oval. Use the side of your hand or a small dowel to make an indentation across the middle of the circle. Place a small pat of chilled butter into the center of the indentation, then fold in half and gently press to seal the edges. Place the rolls, top-side down, onto the prepared sheet pan, spacing them evenly. Melt the remaining 1 ounce butter and brush the tops of the rolls. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm, dry place to rise until doubled in size, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Remove the plastic wrap and bake until the rolls reach an internal temperature of 200 degrees F, 8 to 10 minutes. Rotate the pan halfway through baking.
• Remove the pan to a cooling rack and cool for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
• For Brown and Serve option:
• Assemble rolls as above, but bake as follows.
• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Bake until the outside of the rolls just begin to set but have not browned and the internal temperature is 185 degrees, about 30 minutes. Remove and cool on the pan for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, remove the rolls from the pan and place on a cooling rack until they are room temperature, 30 to 40 minutes. Place the rolls in bags and freeze for up to 3 months.
• To Finish:
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Thaw the rolls for 60 to 90 minutes.
• Spray a sheet pan with nonstick spray. Place the rolls on the prepared sheet pan and bake until the rolls reach an internal temperature of 200 degrees F. Rotate the pan halfway through baking, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the pan to a cooling rack and cool for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.

Slowly add the remaining flour, mixing until a smooth ball forms. Increase the speed to medium-high and continue to knead the dough until very smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. Coat a large bowl with nonstick cooking spray, then place the dough inside. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 60 to 75 minutes.

• Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray, line with parchment paper then spray the paper.
• Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour. Punch down the dough and turn it out onto the prepared surface. Pat into an even thickness.
• Use a chef's knife or bench scraper to divide the dough into 24 pieces, then shape into balls to create small rolls. Place in the prepared baking dish in rows of 4 by 6, then brush the tops of the rolls with 4 tablespoons of the melted butter. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled in size, 30 to 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven 350 degrees F.
