Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread flour, yeast, and salt. Mix well.
2. Gradually add the warm water to the dry ingredients, mixing thoroughly until a dough forms.
3. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5-7 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough back into the mixing bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
1. While the dough is rising, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
2. Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and sauté for about 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
3. Remove from heat and stir in the finely chopped parsley. Set this mixture aside.
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air.
3. Divide the dough into small, golf ball-sized pieces.
4. Dip each dough ball into the garlic butter mixture, ensuring each piece is well coated.
5. Arrange the buttered dough balls in a greased bundt pan or a round baking dish, layering them as you go.
1. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the dough balls. If you prefer extra cheesy goodness, feel free to add more cheese between the layers as you arrange the dough balls.
1. Cover the assembled bread lightly with a kitchen towel and let it rise for an additional 20-30 minutes.
2. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and cooked through.
3. If the top browns too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil during the last 10 minutes of baking to prevent burning.
1. Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 5 minutes.
2. Carefully invert the bread onto a serving plate.
3. Serve warm and pull apart pieces to enjoy the gooey, cheesy, and garlicky goodness!
