Focaccia Rolls - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/4 cups warm water
    1 teaspoon honey
    1 tablespoon active dry yeast
    1/4 cup olive oil, divided
    2 teaspoons salt
    1 1/2 teaspoons italian seasoning, divided
    1 teaspoon dried rosemary, divided
    3 1/2 cups flour
Preparation
    In the bowl of a stand mixer, stir together the water, honey, and yeast.
    Allow to proof for ten minutes until nice and frothy.
    Add 2 Tablespoons olive oil, salt, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon of the rosemary, and mix together.
    In a small bowl, mix together the remaining olive oil and herbs; set aside.
    Attach the dough hook and add the flour.
    Knead on medium for 10-12 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic and doesn't stick to your hands.
    Oil a large bowl and add the dough. Cover with a damp towel or plastic wrap and put in a draft-free area to rise for 1 1/2 - 2 hours, or until the dough doubles in size.
    Once risen, punch down, and divide into 12 equal size balls.
    Place on a greased baking sheet, cover with a damp towel, and allow to rise for 30-40 minutes.
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
    Using the remaining olive oil and herb mix, brush on top of each roll.
    Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and the rolls sound hollow.
