Ingredients

Scale

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 packet (2 ¼ teaspoons) instant yeast
¾ cup warm water (about 110°F)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon honey

Instructions

In a bowl, combine warm water and honey; sprinkle in instant yeast and let sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
In another bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Gradually add the yeast mixture and olive oil; mix until a shaggy dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough, mix in minced garlic and chopped rosemary. Divide into muffin-sized portions and place in greased muffin tins.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Allow muffins to rest while the oven heats up.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
