Ingredients

2 1 / 4 tsp active dry yeast
1 cup warm water (240 ml)
2 tbsp sugar
3 cups all-purpose flour (360 g)
1 tsp salt
3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 / 3 cup grated Parmesan cheese (30 g)
1 tbsp dried parsley

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy. Add the flour and salt to the yeast mixture and mix until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
2. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Punch down the dough, then divide it into 12-14 pieces and roll each piece into a rope. Place on a baking sheet and brush with melted butter, minced garlic, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and dried parsley. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm.
