Preheat oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet.

In a mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let foam for 2–5 minutes.

Stir in oil, salt, egg, and flour. Mix until a soft dough forms, adding more flour as needed if sticky.

Divide dough into 16 equal portions, shape into rolls, and place on the baking sheet.

Let rise in a warm place for 5–10 minutes until puffy.

Brush rolls with melted butter and sprinkle with granulated garlic, Parmesan, and parsley.

Bake 18–20 minutes or until golden brown.

Brush with more melted butter before serving.

Use milk instead of water for a richer texture; add Greek yogurt for extra softness.

Add Italian herbs or red pepper flakes to the garlic butter for a twist.

Swap Parmesan with Asiago or mozzarella for flavor variation.

Try using part whole-wheat flour for a nuttier taste.

Gluten-free flour blends may work 1:1, though results may vary.
