Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dough Ingredients
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour Provides a balanced protein level for a tender crumb.
  • 2 teaspoons instant yeast For a reliable and quick rise.
  • 1 teaspoon salt Enhances flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon sugar Feeds the yeast and aids browning.
  • 1 cup warm water Water should be around 100-110°F to activate yeast.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil Adds richness to the dough.
Flavored Coating
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced Infuses rich flavor into the bread.
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped Provides a bright herbal aroma.
  • 1/4 cup melted butter Enhances flavor and creates a golden crust.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, salt, and sugar until evenly distributed.
  2. Pour in the warm water and olive oil, then stir until a rough dough forms, ensuring no large dry patches remain.
  3. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover, and let it rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Baking
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Gently punch down the dough and divide it into small pieces.
  3. Roll each piece into a ball, then dip each ball in the melted butter mixed with garlic and rosemary.
  4. Arrange the balls in a greased baking pan, allowing for expansion.
  5. Cover loosely and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the top is golden brown and an instant-read thermometer reads 190-200°F.
  7. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving warm.

Notes

Store cooled bread wrapped tightly in plastic wrap or in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Can freeze up to 3 months. For variations, consider adding cheese or spices for different flavors.
