In the pan of your automatic bread machine (ABM), add ingredients in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Typically, this will mean adding the warm water, olive oil, honey, salt, flour, yeast, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, and dried Italian herb mix.
Set your bread machine to the dough cycle (this will take approximately 1.5 hours, depending on your model). Allow the machine to complete the mixing, kneading, and first rise.
Once the cycle is complete, transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface.
Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and shape them into round buns.
Place the buns on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Cover the buns with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise in a warm, draft-free place for 30-40 minutes, or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Brush the tops of the risen buns with melted butter, then sprinkle with the additional grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Optional: Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the buns as soon as they come out of the oven for added freshness.
Allow the buns to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
