Garlic-Parmesan Cheese Pull Apart Bread [Using Rhodes Frozen Yeast Rolls]

This Garlic-Parmesan Cheese Pull Apart Bread  is  the savory cousin to our all time sweet pull apart favorite…monkey bread.   It’s made using frozen rounds of yeast dinner rolls, melted butter, tangy Parmesan cheese and garlic, of course. It can be baked in a plethora of shapes and each one spells delicious.
If you’re someone who loves for all of the rolls to have that crispy golden top,  bake the bread in a round 9-inch spring form or pie pan. Follow the same preparation method and bake for around 22-24 minutes until golden and cooked through. Using a springform pan, the bread pieces are arranged side by side so, all of the rolls will get that crispy golden topping. Simply delicious and perfect for sharing.  Also, I increased the Parmesan a bit with this batch, since there’s no way you can ever go wrong adding a little extra Parmesan cheese.  And, yes a little is missing…funny thing about this bread, it begins to disappear as soon as I take it from the oven. Everyone enjoys this fun bread.

Ingredients

• 16 frozen white dinner rolls [I used Rhodes]
• 1/2 cup [1 stick] butter melted
• 2/3 plus 1/4 cup grated Parmesan-Romano cheese [divided]
• 1 tsp dry parsley flakes
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp dried basil or Italian seasoning
• 1/2 tsp onion powder

Instructions

1. Remove the frozen dinner rolls from the freezer and place onto a plate. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and allow the rolls to sit on the counter for 30-45 minutes or so, until the rolls have thawed enough to cut.
2. Place the rolls onto a cutting board, and using a sharp knife, cut each roll into quarters.
3. Melt one stick of butter in the microwave. Stir the melted butter and seasonings together until blended.
4. Add the quartered rolls to the butter, and toss gently to coat.
5. Add 2/3 cup of grated Parmesan-Romano cheese reserving the rest for the top. Toss until each piece is coated.
6. Layer the dough quarters evenly in a standard 9x4x3-inch loaf pan sprayed with cooking spray. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of cheese on top and a sprinkle of parsley for color.
