I am looking for a garlic bread recipe. Anything I search for pulls up pre-made bread with some butter herb mixture slathered on. I want to MAKE garlicy bread. Any suggestions?

The chefs on the show had their family in to test all the food and the Italian chefs mom was in love with it but said she would never make it (it had a lot of mayo)

I wanna try this so bad but Melanie is disgusted and well i dont really eat bread but when the folks on TV were eating it they were all raving but just disturbed by the ingredients

This is our all time favorite garlic bread, J's coworkers request it all the time to snack on. It's similar to focaccia but lighter and puffier and really easy to make. Bonus: The topping can be changed to suit whatever you are having for dinner, I often replace the rosemary and garlic mixture with thin sliced onions, insanely delicious.

3 cups bread or AP flour (maybe a bit more if needed for dough consistency)
1/3 cup of olive oil
1 packet active yeast (2 1/4 tsp)
1 1/2 cups lukewarm water (110 degrees)
1/4 cup chopped fresh rosemary
3-6 cloves minced garlic
1 tsp salt
2 tsp kosher or sea salt
1 tbsp sugar

Mix together the water, yeast, sugar, and half of the rosemary. Ad 1 tsp salt to the flour, then add the flour and salt to the yeast mixture, slowly, until the dough is able to form a slack ball. Knead on a well floured surface for 10 minutes. Place dough in a well oiled bowl, cover, and let sit in a warm place until it doubles in size (about an hour).

Mix together the oil, rosemary, and garlic. Punch dough down and knead a few times to make it easy to handle. Shape dough into 2 loaves and place several inches apart on a baking sheet. Score the loaves and pour the oil mixture on top of them. Sprinkle each loaf with the kosher/sea salt. Allow to rise for 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350. Bake for 15 minutes, until golden.

*My changes: I put each loaf in a 9 inch cake pan (do not oil) and squish it down until it reaches the sides of the pan, I then dimple it all over with my finger tips (it's ok to make holes in the dough, they will fill in) and pour half of the oil mixture over each loaf. The salt called for in the topping makes for a VERY salty bread, I usually cut the amount in half. The dough should be kind of slack, not tough or watery.

Enjoy!

YUMMY! That bread was amazing!. I made it the recipe way (except I omitted the salt on top all together) and the only change I would make is a bit of garlic IN the dough. We like relaly garlicy stuff. Thanks again!
