Cheesy Garlic-Herb Pull-Apart Bread

Buttered, garlicked, and cheese-stuffed bread that tears apart in steamy strips. Frozen bread dough does most of the work; you just shape and bake.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb pizza or bread dough, thawed if frozen
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 6 clove garlic, minced
  • 0.25 cup parsley, chopped
  • 2 tbsp grated parmesan
  • 1.5 cup low-moisture mozzarella, shredded
  • 0.5 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 0.5 tsp kosher salt

How to cook

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 400°F. Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, garlic, parsley, parmesan, pepper flakes, and salt.

  3. 3

    Cut the dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each into a ball.

  4. 4

    Dip each ball in the butter mixture, then arrange them in the pan with about 1/2 inch between balls (they will expand and meet).

  5. 5

    Pour any remaining butter mixture over the top. Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap and let rest 20 minutes — the dough should look puffy.

  6. 6

    Sprinkle the mozzarella over the top, pushing some between the rolls.

  7. 7

    Bake 22-26 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and deeply golden, and a piece in the center pulls cleanly without raw dough.

  8. 8

    Cool 5 minutes before tearing apart.
