    Ingredients                                          Method



      For the Bread Base
      150g plain flour                                    Place all the ingredients for the bread base into
      50g wholemeal flour                                 the bowl of a stand mixer with dough hook
      1 teaspoon dried active baking yeast                attachment and knead for 8-10 minutes.
      1/2 teaspoon salt                                   Alternatively, you can work the dough with
      150ml lukewarm water                                your hands.
      For the Garlic Butter                               When the dough is ready divide into two equal
      40g salted butter, slightly softened                sized pieces and place each into a greased
      25g finely chopped parsley leaves                   bowl. Cover and let rise for 45 minutes to 1
      1 head garlic                                       hour or until double in size.
                                                          Meanwhile, cut the head of garlic in half
                                                          horizontally exposing the cloves. Place into a
                                                          bowl with 2 tablespoons water and cover with
                                                          cling film. Microwave for 1-2 minutes or until
                                                          cloves are very soft. Let cool covered.
                                                          Once the garlic is cool enough to handle, pop
                                                          the softened cloves out of their skins into a
                                                          bowl and mash. Mix with butter and parsley.
                                                          You may need to add a little salt.

                                                          Preheat a pizza stone on the oven floor (or
                                                          lowest shelf) to 260 C / Gas 10, 30-45 minutes
                                                          before wanting to cook your garlic bread.

                                                          Transfer each dough ball onto a floured surface
                                                          and roll to at least 23 cm (9 inch) in diameter.
                                                          Spread half of the garlic butter over the base
                                                          and transfer to the pizza stone. Bake for
                                                          approximately 4-5 minutes, or until the base
                                                          cooked with brown spots on the bottom.
                                                          Repeat. Slice and enjoy!
