Warm Farmhouse Texas Roadhouse’s Rolls (Fluffy, Buttery, & Completely Irresistible!)

How to Make Texas Roadhouse’s Rolls (Step-by-Step)

Step 1: Activate the Yeast

In a mixing bowl, whisk warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit 5–10 minutes until frothy and fragrant.

Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients

Add melted butter, eggs, and salt. Stir until well combined.

Step 3: Build the Dough

Add flour gradually, mixing until a soft dough forms. It should be slightly tacky but not sticky.

Step 4: Knead

Knead by hand or mixer for 5–8 minutes until smooth, elastic, and stretchy.

Step 5: First Rise

Cover and let rise in a warm, draft-free spot until doubled—about 1 hour.

Step 6: Shape the Rolls

Divide the dough evenly and shape into squares or traditional round rolls. Arrange on a lined baking sheet.

Step 7: Second Rise

Cover and let rise again until puffed and soft to the touch.

Step 8: Bake

Bake at 350°F (175°C) until golden brown, usually 12–15 minutes.

Step 9 (Optional… but oh my ❤️): Honey Cinnamon Finish

Brush warm rolls with melted butter OR a honey-cinnamon glaze for that classic sweet finish.

Step 10: Serve Warm

Trust me: these are best enjoyed the moment they leave the oven.
