Recipe Note
🍽 Serving Suggestions
Serve warm with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
Slice for garlic bread or bruschetta.
Perfect for sandwiches, especially panini or Caprese.
🧠 Pro Tips
For a crispier crust, remove the bread from the pan after baking and let it rest on a wire rack.
Brush with olive oil and sprinkle sea salt before baking for an artisan touch.
Use bread flour for a chewier texture, or all-purpose flour for a lighter crumb.
🧊 Storage
Store in a bread bag or airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Freeze slices with parchment in between for quick defrosting.
