Makes 16 servings

• 1 16-oz. loaf frozen white or wheat bread dough
• ¼ cup sesame seeds
• 2 Tbsp. yellow cornmeal
• 2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tsp. salt-free lemon-pepper seasoning
• 3 Tbsp. butter, melted

DIRECTIONS

Thaw dough according to package directions. Grease a 9-inch square baking pan; set aside. In a shallow dish or small bowl stir together sesame seeds, cornmeal, Parmesan cheese, and lemon-pepper seasoning. Place butter in a second dish. Cut the dough into 16 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a ball by pulling and pinching dough underneath.

Roll dough pieces in butter, then in the sesame seed mixture to lightly coat. Arrange dough pieces, smooth sides up, in the prepared pan. Cover pan with waxed paper. Let rise in a warm place until nearly double in size (45 to 60 minutes). Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake 25 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer rolls to a wire rack. Cool slightly before serving.
