Description

A straightforward recipe for soft, cheesy pull-apart bread flavored with garlic and herbs.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 loaf (13-16 oz) pre-made pizza dough or bread dough
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Lightly grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. If using pre-made dough, let it come to room temperature according to package directions.
  3. Cut the dough into 1-inch cubes. Place the cubes into a large bowl.
  4. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  5. Pour the butter mixture over the dough cubes. Toss gently until all pieces are coated.
  6. Transfer the coated dough cubes to the prepared loaf pan.
  7. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese evenly over the dough cubes.
  8. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes before serving warm.

Notes

  • You can substitute fresh herbs with 1 teaspoon of dried parsley and 1/4 teaspoon of dried oregano if fresh is unavailable.
  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the butter mixture.
