Egg bread that is rolled into balls, dipped in garlic butter and coated with herbs to make this savory Herbed Monkey Bread
Ingredients
Bread
1 1/2 packages yeast
1/2 cups warm water
2 tablespoons sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cups butter - melted
1 1/2 cups milk
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
5 – 6 cups flour
Garlic Butter Dip
1/2 butter
2 - 4 garlic cloves - minced
Toppings
Sesame seeds
Poppy seeds
Parsley
Dill
Instructions
Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup warm water.
Beat eggs in a bowl and add the sugar and beat well. Add melted butter, milk, hot water and salt. Mix well and add yeast.
Stir in 1 cup flour and beat until smooth. Add remaining flour to make a soft dough. Knead until smooth. Cover and let rise until doubled.
Melt butter in a saucepan. Add minced garlic. Remove from heat.
Chop parsley and dill. Put the sesame seeds and poppy seeds in bowls.
Grease an angel food pan with cooking spray. Weigh out 1 1/2 lbs. of dough. This is slightly more than half if you don't have a way to weigh it. Cut the dough into walnut sized balls, dip into the butter and then one of the toppings. Put them in the pan. I did 2 rolls of the dough balls. Pour a little of the garlic butter over the top of the rolls. Cover and let rise until doubled.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake for about 30 - 35 minutes or until lightly browned. Let set a few minutes after you take it out of the oven. Then very carefully remove the outside rim. I left the bottom on and put it on a wire rack to slightly cool. Remove to your serving dish when read to serve.
