Amazing Pull-Apart Buttery, Cheesy Garlic Bread

This pull-apart buttery, cheesy garlic bread is exceptionally wonderful, you won’t soon forget it! It makes a great appetizer or side dish.

One night I was making lasagna for supper and I was going to make rolls to go with it, but I wanted to change it up a little. So I thought I would try to turn them into a garlic bread of sorts, with some cheese, because cheese makes everything better, and I wanted them to be pull-apart.

I took my normal roll recipe chopped them up, added some cheese and a buttery garlic sauce, and got amazingly delicious rolls!

How To Store Pull-Apart Buttery, Cheesy, Garlic Bread

This recipe is best fresh out of the oven, however, in an airtight container at room temperature they stay good for up to 3 days. When we have leftovers they are good enough to eat at room temperature without butter.

Ingredients You Will Need

Rolls:

• Water – The water must be warm to activate the yeast, but you don’t want it too hot or it will kill it
• Oil – I use olive oil
• Yeast – Instant dry yeast
• Sugar
• Salt
• Egg
• Shredded Cheese – Whatever kind of cheese you want, cheddar would give it more flavor, but I use mozzarella too, or a mixture of the two
• Flour – Bread flour works best, but any flour will do

Garlic Butter Sauce:

• Butter – I use salted butter, unsalted would work but add a pinch of salt
• Garlic – Minced garlic, either fresh or the stuff in a jar
• Parsely
• Oregano
• Basil

How To Make Pull-Apart Buttery, Cheesy Garlic Bread

1. Combine warm water, oil, yeast, and sugar in a bowl and let rest for 10 minutes.

2. After it has rested, stir in the salt, egg, and shredded cheese.

3. Add the flour slowly, stirring thoroughly between each addition. You will want the dough to be soft and somewhat sticky.

4. Preheat oven to 400F

5. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and form the dough into 24 roll-sized balls.

6. Cut each ball into 4-6 pieces and place them back in the bowl.

7. Place the butter, garlic, oregano, basil, and parsley in a small saucepan and heat on the stove until the butter is melted.

8. Pour the butter mixture over the roll chunks in the bowl and toss or stir until all the pieces are thoroughly coated in the butter mixture.

9. Press coated chunks into muffin tins to make rolls, a bread pan to make a loaf or any container you want. Optional – Put a chunk of cheese in the middle of the rolls to make them extra cheesy.

10. Pour any leftover butter mixture over the rolls.

11. Let rise for up to half an hour.

12. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until done.

13. Serve fresh out of the oven while the cheese is still melted and warm.
