Smoky Garlic Bread Pull-Apart Loaf

Ingredients

• 1 large round loaf (sourdough or crusty bread works best)
• 100 g unsalted butter, softened
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp BlixSam’s Smoke Craft Spice
• 1 tsp BlixSam’s Garlic Melt (optional)
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
• ½ cup grated cheddar cheese
• Salt, to taste

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
2. In a bowl, combine the softened butter, garlic, BlixSam Smoke Craft Spice, BlixSam Garlic Melt, and parsley until well mixed.
3. Using a sharp bread knife, cut the loaf into a criss-cross grid pattern, taking care not to cut all the way through the base.
4. Gently pull apart the cuts and spread the garlic butter mixture deep into each cut.
5. Stuff the mozzarella and cheddar cheese into the cuts, making sure the cheese reaches between the slices.
6. Wrap the loaf in foil and place it on a baking tray.
7. Bake for 15 minutes.
8. Remove the foil and bake for a further 5–7 minutes, or until the bread is golden, crispy and the cheese is melted.
9. Sprinkle with a little extra fresh parsley and serve warm. Pull apart and enjoy!
