Description

Indulge in the heavenly flavors of Swirled Garlic Herb and Cheese Bread, a delightful blend of savory garlic, fresh herbs, and gooey cheese wrapped in a warm, soft bread.

Ingredients

Scale

4 cups plain all-purpose flour

1.5 cups warm water

1 packet active dry yeast

1 small spoon salt

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic minced

0.5 cups mixed fresh herbs chopped

1 cup shredded cheese

Instructions

Combine warm water and yeast in a bowl. Allow it to sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, and olive oil.
Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture and knead until a soft dough forms.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
In a bowl, mix minced garlic, chopped herbs, and shredded cheese.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to a rectangle.
Spread the garlic herb and cheese mixture evenly over the dough.
Roll the dough tightly into a log and pinch the seams to seal.
Place the rolled dough into a greased loaf pan and let it rise again for about 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 375°F and bake the bread for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool before slicing.

Notes

For an extra kick, consider adding red pepper flakes to the cheese filling or brushing the top with garlic butter before baking.
