These fluffy and light Stuffed Garlic Rolls are filled with wonderful buttery garlic flavor and packed with a creamy spinach filling.
These Spinach Dip-Stuffed Garlic Rolls are insane y’all!!!
A few weeks ago, I attended the Pillsbury Bake Off and had the best time ever! One of the best parts of the experience was walking the aisles during the competition to speak to the finalists and try their amazing creations. The idea was ingenious, and the taste was out of this world. This recipe even won the Pillsbury Clever Twist Award. If you go to restaurants and order spinach dip for an appetizer, this recipe takes it one step further by stuffing it inside a garlic roll.
Ingredients
- Butter: Melted butter, because everything’s better with butter.
- Garlic: Garlic powder to bring that punchy, aromatic zing.
- Spinach: Frozen chopped spinach, bringing some green goodness.
- Cream Cheese: Softened cream cheese for a rich, creamy filling.
- Saucy: Worcestershire sauce for a hint of tangy depth.
- Dough: Pillsbury refrigerated French bread, your canvas for these tasty rolls.
How to Make Garlic Rolls
- Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 12 regular-size muffin cups with No-Stick Cooking Spray. Spoon 1 teaspoon of the melted butter into each muffin cup. Sprinkle 1/8 teaspoon of the garlic powder and 1 teaspoon of the Parmesan cheese into each muffin cup.
- Microwave frozen spinach as directed on box 3 to 4 minutes to thaw. Drain well; squeeze dry with paper towels. In small bowl, mix spinach, cream cheese, 1 teaspoon of the garlic powder, 1/3 cup of the Parmesan cheese and the Worcestershire sauce until blended. Shape mixture into 12 (1 1/2-inch) balls.
- Remove dough from can; cut into 12 equal slices. Press each to form 3-inch round. Place 1 spinach ball in center of each dough round. Carefully wrap dough around ball; pinch edges to seal completely. Place seam side down in muffin cups.
- Bake 17 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan 2 minutes. Loosen with tip of knife. Remove from pan; place on serving platter. Brush each roll with remaining melted butter; sprinkle with remaining garlic powder and Parmesan cheese. Serve warm.
How to Serve
- Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup: This comforting soup, rich with flavorful broth, tender chicken, and hearty noodles, is the perfect companion to the garlicky, cheesy delight of the rolls.
- Harvest Fall Salad: A fresh and vibrant salad is a great way to balance the richness of the Stuffed Garlic Rolls. With its seasonal ingredients, it offers a refreshing contrast.
- Corn Spoonbread: This Southern Corn Spoonbread, light and creamy, made with cornmeal, milk, sour cream, and cheese, is another excellent side dish to go with the rolls.
- Velveeta Mac & Cheese: consider serving them with this creamy and gooey macaroni that is an. easy-to-whip-up dish perfect for any occasion
How to Store and Reheat
To keep your Stuffed Garlic Rolls fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. When you’re ready to enjoy them again, reheat the rolls in the oven at 350°F for about 5-10 minutes until they’re warm and the cheese is gooey again.
