How to make Hot Honey Garlic Bread
Tips from the cook
- Cook the garlic on very low heat, so it turns soft and mellow without browning too fast.
- Keep the garlic oil for salad dressings, pasta or roasted vegetables.
- Short on time? Store-bought pizza dough works. Knead homemade dough only until smooth.
- Drizzle the hot honey only after baking, and serve at once while the cheese is stretchy.
