These bread machine garlic bread or cheesy garlic pull-apart rolls are perfect for a side or for a potluck. They are great to make over Thanksgiving, holidays, Christmas, gamedays, Superbowl, or just any special event. They are kid-friendly and a true crowd-pleaser.
Based on the type of the bread Machine, add the ingredients (water, salt, sugar, oil, bread flour, yeast) in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select the "Dough" cycle.
While the dough is getting ready, mix the butter, garlic and rosemary in a bowl.
Once the "Dough" cycle is complete, the dough will be through its first rise.
Take the dough out from the bread machine.
Shaping the dough
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 30 seconds.
Divide the dough into small pieces and make small balls about an inch in size and place in a baking tray. Space them about 1 cm apart as they will rise.
Apply the butter garlic and rosemary mix on the balls with the help of a basting brush ensuring the balls are coated well with butter and garlic.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese on the balls and between the gaps.
Final rise
Cover the baking tray with another tray for about 90 mins. Optionally you can keep the tray in the oven and turn the oven on "Warm" mode only for 5 minutes and then let them rise for 90 minutes in the oven.
Baking in oven
Once the balls have risen, take the tray out from the oven and preheat the oven to 350° F.
Bake the rolls for about 20 mins at 350° F.
The cheesy garlic pull apart rolls are ready once the melted cheese and the rolls turn golden brown in color.
