Forget how you used to make garlic bread :)
ingredients
1 cup Warm Water
1 Tablespoon Honey
1 envelope Active Dry Yeast (2 1/4 Teaspoons)
1 teaspoon Salt
3 cups Bread Flour
Olive Oil, For Greasing Surfaces
1/3 pounds Sharp White Cheddar, Or Any Other Cheese You Prefer
1/2 cups Garlic Butter
directions
- In a large bowl, stir water, honey and yeast together. Let yeast proof 5 minutes.
- Stir in salt and the flour 1/4 cup at a time (If you are using a stand mixer, be sure to not increase your speed higher than a 2 or stir)
- Once dough starts pulling away from the sides and the bowl seems to be pretty clean, set a timer for 5 minutes and walk away. After 5 minutes, dough should be smooth and tacky but when touched shouldn't leave any dough on your fingers.
- Grease the bowl and the dough. Cover with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let rise 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Punch down dough and cut into two equal portions.
- Form into two long baguettes the length of the cookie sheet. I like the twist because it looks cool, but it also keeps its length and doesn't shrink.
- Cover with plastic wrap and rise 30 minutes.
- Start to preheat oven to 400 degrees F and place dough close to the oven where its nice and warm.
- Once oven is preheated, remove plastic wrap, from the dough reduce oven to 350F, put the bread into the oven and bake 20 minutes.
- In the meantime, slice the cheese into thin slices and melt the butter.
- Pull loaves of bread out of the oven after 20 minutes and brush with the melted garlic butter. Bake another 5-7 minutes or until bread begins to turn a golden brown. Remove from oven and cool 15 minutes.
- Cut 1-inch slices 3/4 of the the way through the loaves. Brush garlic butter in between each slice and fill with a slice of cheese. Bake another 3-5 minutes or until cheese is completely melted.
- Serve immediately.
