Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Dinner Rolls
Garlicky, buttery, parmesan-laced rolls that are crisp on the outside and perfectly chewy on the inside. Start with store-bought rolls and elevate them to a show-stopping side dish!
These rolls are great all year long! They’re especially great during the holiday season because they’re quick and easy, yet they clearly show that you took a little extra time to make something special. With just a handful of ingredients!
What type of rolls should you use? I used frozen dinner rolls – partially baked rolls that just require a short period of additional baking. That said, you can use uncooked rolls too. You can even use bread or pizza dough and divide it into 8 equal pieces. When using frozen uncooked dough, thaw it according to the package directions. When starting with uncooked rolls, add a few minutes to the cooking time.
I used my air fryer, but you can use your oven too. To use your oven, place the rolls on parchment or foil-lined baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes, or slightly longer for uncooked rolls.
