This homemade recipe combines the robust flavor of roasted garlic with the freshness of chives, resulting in an irresistible bread with a crispy crust and soft, flavorful interior.

Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
- Lightly roast the minced garlic in a small, dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, being careful not to burn it. This should take about 1-2 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose white wheat flour, yeast, sugar, chopped chives, and salt. Mix thoroughly to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Add the lukewarm water, roasted garlic, and milk to the dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon or use a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment until the mixture forms a shaggy dough.
- If kneading by hand, transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. If using a stand mixer, knead on medium speed for about 5-7 minutes.
- Place the kneaded dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning the dough to coat it with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel. Allow the dough to rise in a warm, draft-free spot for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
- Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Transfer it to a lightly floured surface and shape it into a loaf or a round boule, depending on your preference.
- Place the shaped dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet or in a lightly greased loaf pan. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise again for about 30-45 minutes, or until it has nearly doubled in size.
- While the dough is undergoing its second rise, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Once the dough has finished its second rise, bake it in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Allow the bread to cool on a wire rack before slicing. Enjoy your homemade roasted garlic bread with butter, cheese, or your favorite spread.
Tips:
- Ensure that your yeast is fresh and active to help the dough rise properly.
- Roast the garlic cloves before mixing them into the dough. This can be done by wrapping them in foil and baking at 400°F (200°C) for about 20-30 minutes until soft and golden.
- When kneading the dough, add a small amount of flour if the dough is too sticky or a bit of water if it’s too dry.
- Allow the dough to rise in a warm, draft-free area to ensure the best rise.
- For a crispier crust, place a pan of water in the oven during baking to create steam.
This roasted garlic bread is a delectable addition to any meal, packed with flavors of roasted garlic and fresh chives. With a few simple ingredients and these handy tips, you can bake a savory bread that’s sure to impress your family and friends. Enjoy this cozy, homemade delight!
