PUT ON YOUR APRON, YOUR ATTITUDE, AND YOUR INNER “I CAN OUT‑ROLL TEXAS ROADHOUSE ANY DAY OF THE WEEK” ENERGY — because today we’re making a recipe so fluffy, so buttery, so melt‑in‑your‑mouth magical that your family may actually start clapping when you walk into the room holding a basket of them.

We’re talking TEXAS ROADHOUSE ROLLS — COPYCAT STYLE — the soft, golden, slightly sweet, cloud‑like rolls that make people close their eyes on the first bite and whisper, “Oh… this is dangerous.” These rolls are the reason people go to Texas Roadhouse. These rolls are the reason people stay at Texas Roadhouse. And now? They’re the reason your kitchen is about to smell like heaven.

Let’s talk rolls. Not the “I bought these at the store and instantly regretted it” rolls. Not the “these taste like cardboard sadness” rolls. Not the “I tried to bake something once and it came out looking like a hockey puck” rolls.

I’m talking about REAL rolls — the kind that puff up beautifully, the kind that make your kitchen smell like a bakery, the kind that make your family hover like carb‑seeking ninjas, the kind that make you feel like you could open a restaurant even if you’re still wearing yesterday’s leggings.

These Texas Roadhouse Copycat Rolls are:

  • soft
  • fluffy
  • lightly sweet
  • golden
  • buttery
  • kid‑approved
  • adult‑approved
  • holiday‑worthy
  • weeknight‑worthy
  • and honestly? A little bit magical

They’re the kind of roll that makes people ask, “WHERE DID YOU BUY THESE?” The kind that makes your kitchen feel warm and welcoming. The kind that makes you feel like a culinary queen — even if your hair is in a messy bun and you’re using a spatula as a microphone.

Perfect for: • Sunday dinner • holidays • potlucks • neighbor gifts • “I need something delicious immediately” moments

💬 Reader prompt: Are you team “extra honey butter” or team “just give me the whole basket”?

Listen to the words coming out of my mouth! These are literally the best rolls ever. Period. Search no further! I have made these twice in the last 2 weeks.
 
They are so good I may just make them this weekend, but I probably shouldn’t because when they come out of the oven you eat like 6 every time and those are calories I don’t really need.
 
However, they are calories that I Want! But seriously baking is my way to relax, and I thought that making these would be a pain but for a bread recipe, it wasn’t too bad. YOU WILL NOT REGRET MAKING AND EATING THESE!!
 

Texas Roadhouse Rolls Copycat

Ingredients

•  1 package active dry yeast
•  1/2 c. warm water
•  2 c. milk, scalded then cooled to room temperature
•  4 Tbsp. melted butter, slightly cooled
•  1/2 c. sugar
•  6-7 c. flour
•  2 eggs
•  2 tsp. salt
•  1/2 c. honey
 
 

Texas Roadhouse Rolls Copycat

Directions

1.         In a mixing bowl, combine yeast, warm water, and 1 Tbsp. sugar. Let the yeast get bubbly. 
2.        Place milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Allow cooling slightly.
3.        Melt the butter in the microwave and set aside.
4.        Add the sugar, honey, milk, and 3 1/2 c. flour to the yeast mixture. Beat together for two minutes.
5.        Add butter, eggs, and salt. Stir well.
6.        Add the rest of the flour a half a cup at a time until the dough begins to separate from the sides of the bowl. Let it rest for 3-5 minutes.
7.         Knead the dough in the bowl for 5 minutes. If the dough seems sticky to you add a tablespoon of flour at a time until it reaches a good consistency.
8.        Remove dough from the bowl and grease the inside of the bowl.
9.        Place the dough back in the bowl and flip it around till the entire outside is nice and shiny with the oil.
10.      Loosely cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow the dough to double in size, which takes a little over an hour and sometimes longer in my cold house.
11.       Once the dough has doubled, smash it down with your fists for about a minute. 
12.      Roll the dough out to about a 1/2 inch thick. Then fold the dough in half, now making it an inch thick, and roll over with a rolling pin to seal it together. This makes a perfect way to separate the rolls once baked. No need to cut it in half, just pull it apart.
13.       Cut the dough into rectangles about 2 inches by 3 inches.
14.       Place the dough on a greased baking sheet and cover lightly with plastic wrap. Allow the dough to double in size again (about 1 hour).
15.       Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Immediately rub the tops with a little bit of butter for that fabulous shine. Enjoy!
