Garlic Rosemary Bites (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Base
01 -
Pre-made pizza dough (around 1.5 lbs)
02 -
Half cup of olive oil, barely full
→ Aromatics & Seasonings
03 -
8 cloves of garlic
04 -
4 sprigs of fresh rosemary
05 -
Coarse flaky salt
# Instructions:
01 -
Let the dough warm up in a lightly oiled bowl. Slice into 12 equal parts, making sure not to knead too much.
02 -
Drizzle one teaspoon of olive oil into each section of a muffin pan.
03 -
Roll each dough piece into a ball. Set them in the oiled pan, cover, and rest them near your oven preheating to 400°F.
04 -
Finely chop up the garlic and rosemary leaves, then keep them aside.
05 -
Warm up the remaining oil. A drop of water will let you know when it's ready. Take it off the heat and mix in the garlic and rosemary.
06 -
Spread the seasoned oil on the dough balls. Press gently with your fingers to create dimples, tucking garlic and rosemary bits into the dough.
07 -
Cook for 14 to 16 minutes. If it starts browning too early, tent some foil over it.
# Notes:
01 -
Canned dough works fine if fresh is unavailable.
02 -
Don't overwork the dough or it could lose its airiness.
03 -
Giving the dough some time to rest enhances the texture and flavor.
04 -
A good amount of olive oil will make it taste better.
