Description

Rosemary garlic pull apart bread is a fluffy, buttery, and aromatic bread perfect for sharing. Infused with garlic and rosemary, each piece pulls apart easily and is packed with flavor—ideal for dinners, gatherings, or snacking.


Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 2¼ tsp active dry yeast
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1½ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary (chopped)
  • ¼ tsp salt (for butter mixture)
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Mix warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let sit for 5–10 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add yeast mixture and olive oil. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead dough for 7–8 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled.
  4. Mix melted butter, garlic, rosemary, and salt for the butter mixture.
  5. Punch down dough and divide into 1 to 1½-inch pieces.
  6. Dip each piece in garlic butter and layer in a greased bundt or loaf pan. Sprinkle parmesan between layers if using.
  7. Cover and let rise for 30–40 minutes.
  8. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake for 30–35 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  9. Cool slightly before removing from pan and serving warm.

Notes

  • Use dried rosemary if fresh isn’t available—halve the amount.
  • Add mozzarella or cheddar between layers for a cheesy twist.
  • Wrap and freeze leftovers for up to 2 months.
  • Perfect for soups, salads, or as a party appetizer.
