Instructions
 

  • In a bowl mix together dry active yeast, warm water, and flour. Stir together and then set aside for 10 minutes.
    2 Tbs Dry Active Yeast, 1 Cup Warm Water, 1 Cup Bread or All Purpose Flour
  • After the 10 minutes, in another bowl add flour, salt and rosemary. Pour the yeast mixture over top and stir well. The dough will come together and look shaggy and dry. At this point if you have a stand mixer with a kneading attachment, knead for 10 minutes or you can knead the dough for 10 minutes by hand. Do not add any extra flour, as you knead the dough it will become soft.
    1 1/2 Cups Bread or All Purpose Flour, 2 Tsp Salt, 1 1/2 Tbs Dried Rosemary
  • After kneading, divide the dough into 10 equal balls. Take each dough ball and flatten into a small pancake. Add the about 1-2 Tbs of the shredded cheeses (Parmesan and Mozzarella) in the centre then close the dough ball back up and roll it back into a ball.

  • Brush olive oil in your cast iron or baking dish. Place the dough balls in your cast iron or baking dish and allow to rest for an additional 10 minutes. Beat 1 egg and brush the tops of the buns.
    1 Egg,, 1 Tbs Olive Oil
  • In a bowl mix together melted butter, garlic, onion powder, garlic powder, parsley, and Parmesan cheese.
    1/3 Cup Unsalted Butter,, 4 Cloves Garlic,, 1/2 Tsp Garlic Powder, 1/2 Tsp Onion Powder, 1 Tbs Parsley,, 2 Tbs Parmesan Cheese,
  • After 10 minutes, place in a preheated oven of 365 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until the bread is golden brown. Brush immediately with the garlic butter mixture. Optionally, you can garnish with more parsley and parmesan cheese. Serve warm and enjoy!
