Instructions
Creating Rosemary Garlic Pull Apart Bread is easy when you follow these steps:
1. Activate Yeast: In a small bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour and salt.
3. Combine Ingredients: Add the melted butter and the frothy yeast mixture to the flour. Mix until a dough begins to form.
4. Knead the Dough: Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
5. First Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
6. Prepare Garlic and Rosemary: In a small bowl, mix minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and olive oil. Set aside.
7. Shape the Dough: Punch down the risen dough and turn it out onto a floured surface. Divide it into small equal pieces (about 20-25).
8. Fill the Dough: Take each piece and flatten it slightly. Place a small amount of the garlic and rosemary mixture in the center, then fold it over and pinch to seal.
9. Arrange in Pan: Grease a bundt pan or loaf pan. Place the filled dough pieces in the pan, stacking them on top of each other.
10. Second Rise: Cover the pan with a cloth and let the dough rise again for about 30-40 minutes.
11. Preheat Oven: While the dough is rising, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
12. Egg Wash (Optional): If desired, beat the egg and brush it over the top of the risen dough for a golden finish.
13. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
14. Cool and Serve: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
