Ingredients
Scale
Brioche Rolls
- 12 brioche rolls (store-bought or homemade)
Sage Honey Butter
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh sage
- 1/2 teaspoon flaky sea salt, plus more for topping
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the Sage Honey Butter: In a small bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter with honey, finely chopped fresh sage, flaky sea salt, and ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated, creating a smooth and flavorful butter blend.
- Warm the Brioche Rolls: Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Place the brioche rolls on a baking sheet and warm them in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes or until they are just heated through. This step ensures the rolls are soft and perfect for spreading the butter.
- Slice Rolls if Desired: If you plan to serve the rolls as sliders, carefully slice them in half horizontally. Otherwise, leave them whole for a classic presentation.
- Apply the Sage Honey Butter: Remove the warmed rolls from the oven and generously spread or brush the sage honey butter over the tops of the rolls, allowing the butter to melt slightly and soak in.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle a little extra flaky sea salt over the buttered rolls to enhance the flavor and add a delicate crunch. Serve the rolls warm to enjoy the full blend of sweet and savory notes.
Notes
- The sage honey butter can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to one week. Allow it to soften at room temperature before spreading.
- These rolls are excellent as a side dish for holiday dinners or brunch gatherings.
- Feel free to use homemade brioche rolls for an extra-special touch.
- To keep rolls warm longer, cover them loosely with foil after warming.
