Copycat Rolls + Cinnamon Honey Butter (Texas Roadhouse’s style)

An American snack built around all-purpose flour and vanilla protein powder — on the table in 100 minutes. At 340 calories and 10g protein per serving, it fits easily into a high-protein day. No specialty equipment and nothing hard to find at a regular grocery store.

Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup Vanilla protein powder
• 2 1/4 tsp Instant yeast
• 1 cup Warm skim milk
• 3 tbsp Honey
• 1 Egg
• 3 tbsp Light butter
• 1 tsp Fine salt
• 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
• 2 tbsp Powdered monk fruit

Steps

1. Stir the yeast into the warm milk (105 to 110°F — hotter kills it) with the honey and wait 5 minutes until foamy.
2. Add the flour, protein powder, egg, salt, and 2 tablespoons of the softened butter and knead 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.
3. Cover and rise 1 hour, until doubled; a warm, turned-off oven is the perfect proofing box.
4. Punch down, divide into 12 even pieces, and roll each into a tight ball so they bake up round and pillowy.
5. Rise a second time for 30 minutes — skipping this is how rolls come out dense.
6. Bake at 375°F for 12 to 14 minutes until just golden on top.
7. Beat the remaining butter with the cinnamon, powdered monk fruit, and a pinch of extra honey flavor, and serve the rolls warm with the butter melting down the sides.
