Cheese and garlic crack bread recipe with step by step photos. My long time wish was to bake a crusty loaf at home and make this cheese and garlic crack bread with that. Last week I made this and the whole loaf got over in record time 🙂
I just love baking savory breads and pizzas and I am always on look out for new recipes. I saw this crack bread in few videos and I badly wanted to try it. As we do not get any crusty loaf easily in local bakeries, the only option I had was so bake a crusty loaf too. Agreed it is extra work, but so satisfying and worth the time.
To make this cheese and garlic crack bread recipe I used my baguette recipe and made a crusty loaf. I used whole wheat flour completely to make the crusty loaf. Once the loaf is ready it is very simple to put together the cheese and garlic crack bread. Wait for at least 4 hours for the bread to cool thoroughly. Once the bread is cooled, make cracks all over the bread and brush the garlic butter. Sprinkle required cheese and bake till the cheese melts. I have used very less amount of cheese. if you want to the cheese to strech nicely you should use more cheese.
