What is a parker house roll?
A parker house roll is simply a type of bread roll made by folding an individual, small piece of dough in half, or thirds. Parker house rolls are made with whole milk and have a characteristically butter, soft interior with a slightly sweet, crisp exterior.
Where did they originate?
Parker house rolls were invented in Boston at the Parker House Hotel during the 1870’s. The actual story of their creation has multiple variations, but all of them involve a pastry cook tossing unfinished rolls into an oven, which resulted in a dented appearance.
Ingredients for salted honey parker house rolls
The ingredients for this Parker Roll recipe are easy to source. In fact, most of them are likely to be waiting for you in your pantry! Here’s what you’ll need:
Parkerhouse style rolls
- Whole milk – Bring the milk to room temperature to reduce the warming time in preparation for activating the dry yeast.
- Active dry yeast – You’ll need an ounce package of active dry yeast.
- Granulated sugar – The sugar provides a boost to the yeast so that the honey butter dinner rolls rise. What isn’t used up tenderizes the honey dinner rolls by preventing the gluten from forming.
- Unsalted butter – Melted and left to reach room temperature. Omit the kosher salt if you use salted butter in this Parker Rolls recipe.
- Honey – Feel free to use any brand you prefer. This is added to melted butter to brush over the baked honey Parker rolls.
- All-purpose flour – More for dusting the surface of your work surface.
- Eggs – Bring to room temperature. You’ll need 1 whole egg and 2 egg yolks.
- Kosher salt – Omit if using salted butter in this Parker House rolls recipe
- Flakey sea salt – To taste. This is sprinkled on top of the freshly baked rolls.
- Substitution: Kosher salt can be sprinkled over the tops of the Parker House yeast rolls if you don’t have flakey sea salt.
Parker roll variations
- Gluten Free. Use your favorite gluten-free flour to make gluten-free honey butter yeast rolls. However, make sure you select a flour that can be used in a 1:1 substitution.
- Yeast. I’ve used active dry yeast for this Parker House roll recipe which gets activated in the heated milk before being added to the dry ingredients. You could use instant yeast that is added straight to the dry ingredients if you are concerned about the activating yeast process.
- Cooking method. I love how these honey butter dinner rolls turned out in the oven, but they can also be cooked in a slow cooker. Add the rolls to the prepared slow cooker pot and cook on HIGH for about 2 hours. Depending on the size of your slow cooker, you may need to cook them in batches, especially since the shape of these rolls differs from traditional rounded dinner rolls.
Tips for making the best parker house roll recipe
- Dry Active Yeast. You can tell if your dry active yeast is “alive” if it bubbles when added to the warmed milk. If it doesn’t have any form of reaction then it’s dead and you’ll need to use a new packet.
- Flour. Use your better judgment when it comes to adding more flour to the stand mixer. If the dough is still sticking to the sides of the bowl, you’ll need to add more flour so that it starts to pull away from the sides to form a ball.
- Oiled bowl. You need to grease the inside of the bowl with butter or non-stick cooking spray to add the dough back to rest. This helps prevent the dough from sticking to the bowl while doubling in volume.
- Prepared baking sheet. Butter the baking sheet to create extra flavor in these salted butter rolls.
FAQs: frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between Parker house rolls and dinner rolls?
The biggest difference between Parker House rolls and dinner rolls is the shape! Parker House rolls are rectangular with the dough being folded over like a pocketbook, while dinner rolls are typically round in shape, like puffy balls.
How to fold and shape parker house rolls?
There are a few different methods to folding a shaping parker house rolls depending on the recipe you follow. While some methods call for cutting the dough into rounds and folding them slightly off center, this Honey & Brown Butter Parker House Rolls recipe is for easy sheet pan, pull apart style rolls.
To fold and shape parker house rolls, first you will cut the dough into long strips. Next, you fold each strip of dough slightly off center in half, so that the top part slightly overlaps the bottom. Last, you tuck the overhanging dough underneath (almost like folding an uneven letter).
You can see the photos below for step-by-step how to cut, fold and shape parker house rolls.
Is it better to butter rolls before or after baking?
You can brush the rolls with melted butter before or after baking. If you’re looking for that beautiful golden brown color on the top of your rolls, brushing the rolls with egg wash just before baking is the way to go!
How do you make rolls taste more yeasty?
Allowing the dough to sit for longer will result in a stronger yeast flavor. If that’s what you’re after, simply make the dough ahead of time.
Should I brush yeast rolls before baking?
Yes. If you want a golden finish, brush yeast rolls with egg wash before baking.
Can you over knead yeast rolls?
Yes, it’s possible. If the dough becomes tough to manage, it may be an indication that you have over-kneaded it.
Can I make parkerhouse rolls ahead of time?
You can absolutely make this parker house rolls recipe ahead of time.
To make parker house rolls in advance, make the rolls, allow them to rise and then form them into their traditional “parker roll” shape (step 9 of the Honey & Brown Butter Parker House Rolls recipe below). From there you can either refrigerate them on the prepared baking sheet, covered, for up to 24 hours. Or, you can freeze them for up to 1 month.
If working with refrigerated parker house rolls, let them stand at room temperature for 45 minutes to an hour before baking. If using frozen, unbaked parker house rolls, let the rolls thaw on a prepared baking sheet for 2 1/2 hours before baking.

Honey Butter Parker House Rolls
Equipment
- 1 1-Cup Glass Measure (for heating 1/2 cup of milk)
- 1 Stand Mixer with Hook Attachment (for making Parker House Rolls)
- 1 Small mixing bowl (for making honey butter)
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 Cups Whole Milk – at room temperature; DIVIDED
- 1 ¼ ounce Package Active Dry Yeast
- ¼ Cup Granulated Sugar
- 16 TBS Unsalted Butter – melted & cooled to room temperature; DIVIDED
- 4 TBS Honey - DIVIDED
- 7 ½ - 8 Cups All Purpose Flour - plus more for dusting work surface
- 3 large Eggs – at room temperature; 1 whole egg + 2 egg yolks
- 1 TBS Kosher Salt
- To Taste Flakey Sea Salt (such as Maldon)
Instructions
Make the Dough
- Bloom Yeast: Measure ½ cup of whole milk in a glass measure and warm the milk to a temperature between 110-120 degrees Fahrenheit using the microwave or a small pot and the stove top. Sprinkle the yeast and sugar into the glass measure and then whisk to combine. Set the yeast aside and let bloom for 1-2 minutes on the kitchen counter. (Note: The yeast mixture should bubble and foam slightly – this indicated your yeast is alive. If the yeast does nothing, then your yeast is “dead” and you need to start over with a new package of yeast.)
- Start Dough: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the hook attachment, add 12 tablespoons of melted butter and the remaining 2 cups of room temperature milk. Turn the mixer on to LOW and mix until combined. Stop the mixer and add the whole egg, 2 egg yolks, and 2 tablespoons honey. Mix on LOW until combined. Add Yeast: Stop the mixer and use a rubber spatula to scrape all the bloomed yeast mixture into the bowl. Mix on LOW until combined. Stop the mixer and add 6 ½ cups of flour and 1 tablespoon kosher salt to the bowl. Start mixing on LOW and slowly increase the speed to MEDIUM; beat until the dough starts to form a ball and pull away from the sides of the bowl, about 2-3 minutes. If the dough is wet and sticking to the bowl, add more flour 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and forms a ball. (Note: You may need to add up to ½ cup (or 8 tablespoons) more flour. Use your best judgement.)
- Let Dough Rise: Dump the dough out onto a clean work surface. Brush the inside of bowl with softened butter or spray with non-stick cooking spray. Place the dough back into the (now oiled) bowl. Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 2 to 2 ½ hours, or until the dough doubles in volume.
While Dough Rises, Make the Honey Butter
- Melt Butter and Add Honey: Add the remaining ¼ cup butter to a small microwave safe bowl. Place in the microwave and heat on 50% power until melted. Remove the bowl from the microwave and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of honey. Whisk well to combine. Set aside. (Note: You can melt the butter in a small saucepan if you prefer.)
Shape and Fold Rolls
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375-degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
- Shape Dough: Dust a clean work surface with flour and then lightly flour your hands. Next, gently dump the dough out onto the floured surface. Use your hands to gently press the dough into a 16x8-inch rectangle, approximately ½ to ¾-inch thick. DO NOT USE A ROLLING PIN.
- Cut Dough: Arrange the dough rectangle so that the short end is closest to you. Carefully rub the sides of a sharp knife with flour to prevent the dough from sticking. Cut the dough in half lengthwise. Next, slice each half into 12 equal size strips (you should have 24 strips of dough total.)
- Fold Parker House Rolls: Working with one strip of dough at a time, fold the strip UN-EVENLY in half, so that the top part overlaps the bottom slightly. Next, tuck the overhanging dough all the way underneath the roll (almost like you are folding a business letter unevenly).
- Arrange Rolls: Transfer the folded roll to the prepared baking sheet, arranging them seam-side-down and TOUCHING to form three tightly packed columns of rolls.
Bake Rolls
- Bake: Transfer the rolls to the middle shelf in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden and slightly bursting at the seams.
- Brush with Butter: Immediately remove the rolls from the oven and brush the tops generously with honey butter. Sprinkle flakey sea salt all over the rolls.
- Serve: Serve and enjoy honey butter parker rolls warm from the oven.
Notes
- Make ahead: To make these rolls ahead, make and shape the dough the night before (complete the recipe through step 9). Wrap the shaped and folded (unbaked) rolls on the baking sheet in plastic wrap twice. Store in the freezer for up to 3 weeks. Bake from frozen using these instructions:
- Preheat oven to 325-degrees Fahrenheit
- Bake rolls for 25 minutes
- After 25 minutes, keep the oven door closed and increase the oven temperature to 375-degrees Fahrenheit.
- Continue to bake the rolls for an additional 10 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly bursting at seams.
- Remove rolls from oven, brush with honey butter, sprinkle with salt, and enjoy!
- Recipe Yields: 24 Rolls

Woohoo for carbs! My favorite thing in the world! :). These look seriously amazing. And browned butter? Girl, that’s my weakness. I just discovered the glory which is browned butter, and now I’m obsessed. Haha.

These roll turned out beautiful. I love the rusticness of them. That simple fold over is a technique I need to try. I tend to always do the same old thing…roll them into a roll. I need to give these a try!
Thank you so much, Kathy! The simple fold over is a great way to switch things up! I hope you do give it a try! Cheers to a beautiful weekend, my dear! 🙂
Cheyanne these look incredible!! We don’t have thanksgiving here but you have inspired me to try them for one of our big xmas meals – they sound perfect for feeding a crowd, and absolutely delicious! Love how you have used honey and brown butter too. Sorry to hear about your knee as well – maybe try icing it as well 🙂 xx

No Thanksgiving isn’t a terrible thing, in fact I am slightly jealous, because it means WAY less pressure! 🙂 These would be great for any get together, especially Christmas! I have been icing my knee.. seems like nothing works. Oh well, I’m just using this opportunity to catch up with all my favorite blogs, like yours! Cheers to a fabulous weekend! xo <3
I am such a bread fanatic that when I read the title for this post I squealed! Yes, girly squealed in all its glory! I LOVE parker house rolls. I think the rolls are my favorite part of Thanksgiving, no joke. I love that you made a version that can not only be frozen but baked without thawing…HECK YES! Back in the day when I was a young little thang and didn’t bake, my mom would just buy the parker house rolls from the freezer section of the grocery store for holidays. They were delicious, but I always hated that you had to remember to defrost them the night before and then wait for them to proof before baking. LAME! That’s why you’re a genius, Cheyanne. Your rolls look amazingggg and that honey brown butter….just tell Boy he’s lucky I’m not there for Thanksgiving dinner or else I’d be hogging the whole bread basket!! :p Awesome job, gf! XOXO
Yay, Beeta! I am beyond thrilled that these rolls got our seal of approval, because you are THE baking aficionado! You just made my day with your sweet comment, my sweets!! I know the freezer rolls you are talking about, and yesss I would always forget to defrost ’em too! No worries about that here! Oh, and if you ever want to come over for thanksgiving, don’t worry about Boy, you can have ALL the rolls! 🙂 Thanks so much for the love, Beeta! Cheers to a weekend as fabulous as you! <3 xoxo
Hooray for everything carb-o-licious! Every year for Thanksgiving I make my dad’s crescent rolls – hmm…. I may need to break tradition and give these babies a whirl, because they look and sound INCREDIBLE! Pillowy bread, honey, AND brown butter – what’s not to love?!
Hope your knees feels better soon girlie! Put a warm roll on it 😉

Oh girl, I feel your pain. I decided to start running this summer even though I have never been a runner ever, and I hurt my knees too. It is THE WORST! Be sure to take it easy for awhile to let them calm down. I hope you feel better soon!
AND these rolls! Brown butter and honey all in a homemade roll! These are going on my list. I love that you can make them again and freeze them. Pinning to my Thanksgiving board asap.
Oh, no! I’m so sorry you hurt your knees too, Meghan! The crazy thing is I have always been a runner and a crazy work-out-aholic… I use to be able to do 45 minute runs day with ease. I guess I am getting old, because I am seriously hurting! I am taking it easy, but I’m no good at sitting still or R&R. 🙁 Anyways, thank you so much for the kind words and the pin, doll! Cheers to a fabulous weekend!
Brown butter and honey sounds amazing, and I could seriously make a meal out of these rolls! No turkey no stuffing, just these and a gravy boat! haha Pinning these to try!

Oh no my dear! I’m sorry about your knee… not good timing at all! No doubt going on carb overload is what’s happening in my house right now too! I just gave our neighbor an arm-full of biscuits! OMG. Hooray for Tgiving prep! One of my favorite things about Tgiving is dipping some luscious rolls into graaavy!! Then slathering honey on one.. for later. After the pumpkin pie. You know, there’s leftovers. Someone’s gotta eat em’. These are fabulous rolls and deserve a most treasured spot on the Tgiving table for sure. Yessssss on the brown butter and honey!! Take care of yourself my dear.. xx
Thanks, Traci! I feel like November and December are made for carb overload! I was just being a psycho and trying to get rid of the holiday calories before they –even arrive.

Thank you so much, Sam!! Don’t be scared of yeast! As long as it blooms in water (to make sure it is active and not dead), yeast is easy to work with! I promise! Hope you do try it and get over your fear! You make such beautiful desserts, yeast has got nothin’ on you, girlfriend!! Cheers to a fabulous weekend, my dear! 🙂

Yep, this is done. Can’t wait to saddle these little babies up alongside Tom! I’ve always wanted to make them and now I will! No more excuses! Feel better, friend! We’ll have none of that! xo
Thanks so much, Annie!! Hope you and the Hubster love these if you try them! And I have been resting my knees.. which equates to not moving and being bored. Trust me, I’m not wanting to have any of this pain nonsense either!! 🙂 Cheers to a beautiful weekend, lovely!
I’m so sorry to hear about your knee pain. I’m not a doctor but speaking from experience carbs and a stiff a drink usually eases the sting.
Love these parker house rolls! I’m gonna make them and freeze them so my mom doesn’t have a excuse not to serve homemade rolls for Thanksgiving.
Ha! Carbs and stiff drinks fix everything, right?! 🙂 Thanks so much for the sweet comment, Nicole! Making these and freezing them for your Mom is an excellent idea! Cheers to a fabulous weekend! <3

Mmm I can never resist homemade rolls, especially when they involve honey and browned butter. These look fantastic, Cheyanne! I think I would loose ALL of my willpower and devour this entire batch. I’m a sucker when it comes to bread, especially the homemade kind. Looks just perfect! Pinned!

Cheyanne these rolls look amazing! One of my husband Tom’s favorite things on the Thanksgiving table is of course, the bread!! And the more slathered it is with butter the better!! I’m thinking these rolls absolutely deserve a spot on our Thanksgiving table this year! Thanks for sharing and hope your knees feel better for the weekend!
Thank you so much, Mary Ann! I agree, warm, homemade bread needs lots of extra butter! 🙂 I’m resting my knees and crossing my fingers the pain goes away! Thanks for the well wishes, my dear! Cheers to a fabulous weekend! <3
