Ingredients
- • All-purpose flour: 3 cups
- • Instant yeast: 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp)
- • Sugar: 1 tbsp
- • Salt: 1 tsp
- • Warm water: 1 cup
- • Olive oil: 2 tbsp
- • Ground beef: 1 lb
- • Parmesan cheese, grated: 1/2 cup
- • Breadcrumbs: 1/4 cup
- • Egg: 1
- • Garlic, minced: 2 cloves
- • Italian seasoning: 1 tbsp
- • Mozzarella cheese, cubed: 8 cubes
- • Butter: 4 tbsp
- • Fresh parsley, chopped: 2 tbsp
- • Garlic powder: 1 tsp
- • Salt: 1/2 tsp

Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 2 In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt. Gradually add the warm water and olive oil, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
- 3 While the dough is rising, prepare the meatballs. In a bowl, mix the ground beef, Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, and Italian seasoning until well combined. Form into 8 evenly-sized meatballs. Press a cube of mozzarella cheese into the center of each meatball, ensuring it's completely enclosed.
- 4 Punch down the dough and divide it into 8 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a disc and wrap it around a meatball, pinching the edges to seal. Place the stuffed rolls seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- 5 Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in the chopped parsley, garlic powder, and salt. Brush the garlic herb butter generously over the top of each roll.
- 6 Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Serving Suggestions
- • Serve these savory stuffed meatball bread rolls with a side of marinara sauce for dipping. Pair them with a crisp green salad dressed with a tangy vinaigrette to balance the richness of the rolls. For a beverage, a cold lager or a robust red wine will complement the hearty flavors of the meatball and cheese. These rolls are perfect for a casual gathering with friends, a cozy family dinner, or as a satisfying snack while watching your favorite sports. Their versatility makes them an ideal choice for any occasion where comfort food is the order of the day.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes until warmed through. Avoid microwaving as it may make the bread soggy.
