TEXAS ROADHOUSE ROLL RECIPE
Our family friend and my brother work at Texas Roadhouse. It’s where my kids always request to go for birthdays.
Did you know that Texas Roadhouse makes almost everything in house from scratch?
I actually was surprised by that when my friend told me. I assumed their rolls were just frozen and shipped in.
I can eat a whole basket by myself and now I can make them from my house. 
It took a few not so great batches to get it right but they are so good.

Texas Roadhouse Rolls
Texas Roadhouse Rolls are soft, buttery rolls with a cinnamon butter that takes them over the top.
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 package active dry yeast (2¼ teaspoons)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature (plus 2 tablespoons more for brushing baked rolls)
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 ½ cups bread flour
Honey Cinnamon Butter
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup honey
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅓ cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Heat the milk in a microwave safe bowl for about 60-90 seconds or until temperature reaches about 110°F.
- Stir in the sugar, honey and yeast into the milk. Let the mixture sit for about 10 minutes until the yeast is foamy. I like to cover it with a dish towel which helps the yeast to activate.
- Pour the yeast mixture into the bowl of a stand mixer. Using the dough hook attachment, add in the butter, egg, and salt. Mix in the flour a little bit at a time, until the dough comes into a ball, pulls away from the sides, and isn't sticky. You might not need add all of the flour.
- Add dough to a large greased bowl and cover with a kitchen towel. Let dough rise in a warm place until doubled, about an hour. I like to turn my oven to the proof setting (90℉).
- Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface into a ½-inch-thick rectangle, about 16x8, then fold in half lengthwise to make a 16x4 inch rectangle pinching the fold together. Use a knife or pizza cutter to cut the dough crosswise into 18 squares.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place rolls on the baking sheet and cover with a kitchen towel and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the rolls for 10–12 minutes, until the tops of the rolls are light golden brown. Remove from the oven and brush with 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
- Make the honey cinnamon butter while the rolls are baking: With a stand mixer or hand mixer, whip together the butter, honey, cinnamon, and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Serve with the warm rolls.
