Garlic Herb and Cheese Pull Apart Bread
Description
The recipe starts by rolling out fresh pizza dough to a rectangular shape, evenly spreading softened butter infused with minced garlic. A generous layer of chopped herbs including parsley, basil, rosemary, and thyme, along with shredded Parmesan, Asiago, and Romano cheeses, is pressed into the buttered dough. The dough is then cut into squares sized to fit a loaf pan, stacked vertically to create layers of herb and cheese throughout.
Proofing the dough briefly in the pan before baking allows the bread to rise and develop a light crumb. Baking at 375°F for about 55 minutes yields a golden exterior and tender, flavorful interior. The pull-apart design makes serving convenient, letting diners easily grab cheesy, garlic-herb bread chunks with the peel or as a side to soups and salads.
Ingredients
- 1 pound (500g) pizza dough fresh
- 1 tablespoon butter room temperature, unsalted
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/3 cup parsley chopped
- 1/3 cup basil chopped
- 1/4 cup rosemary leaves chopped
- 1 teaspoon thyme leaves
- 1 cup Italian cheese parmesan, asiago, romano, shredded
Instructions
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough to a size of 20 x 10 inches (50 cm x 25 cm). Evenly spread the butter over the dough.
- Evenly spread the herbs and cheese over the buttered dough, then gently press the ingredients into the dough.
- Cut the dough into squares that fit into a long, thin loaf pan coated with nonstick spray and lined with parchment paper. Stack the pieces and arrange the dough vertically in the pan. Don’t worry if some ingredients fall out; just sprinkle the excess over the dough once the pan is filled.
- Cover the pan with foil and let it sit for 20 minutes while preheating the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Uncover the pan and bake the bread for approximately 55 minutes, or until it is golden on top. Remove the bread from the pan and serve.
