Braided Cheesy Garlic Bread l Jen Phanomrat

Cheesy garlic bread gets a new braided makeover.

INGREDIENTS

For the dough:
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 ¼ tsp active dry yeast (one packet)
1 ¼ cup warm milk
½ tsp sugar
1 tsp salt

For the filling:
1 head of garlic, peeled and minced
4 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
⅓ cup parmesan, grated
½ cup butter, softened
½ cup mozzarella, shredded

RECIPE

In a bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Once the mixture becomes foamy, gradually mix in the flour and salt. Knead the dough into a smooth ball. Cover and allow the dough to rise for 1 hour in a warm spot.

Meanwhile, make the filling: combine all ingredients in a bowl, except the mozzarella. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to form a rectangle.

Spread the filling over the dough and make sure to leave an inch around the edges. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the top.

Roll the dough into a log lengthwise. Slice the roll in half lengthwise leaving one end (about 1 inch) intact. Twist the two sides into a braid, while trying to keep the cut sides facing up.

Grease a loaf pan and place the braided dough inside. Cover and allow to rise again for about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Uncover, brush with olive oil, and bake for about 30-35 minutes.

Made this the day after it appeared on the Tastemade website! So good! Brushing it with olive oil before baking made the edges super crispy, too. Almost like it was fried. Definitely saving the recipe!
