Garlic n Premesan bread


Ingredients
1/4 oz packet of active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm water
1 tsp sugar
4 cups bread flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
3 Tbsp olive oil
1 cup milk
Olive oil
Parmesan Cheese, slice cheddar cheese.
2 garlic cloves, minced
salt
milk to glaze
Combine the yeast, sugar and 1/2 cup of warm water in a small jug or bowl. Leave in a warm place until frothy (about ten minutes).
Put the flour, salt and oil in a large bowl or bench mixer. Stir to combine and then add the yeast mixture and 1 cup of warm milk. Mix to a soft dough and then knead for about ten minutes or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Put the dough in an oiled bowl and cover loosely with oiled plastic wrap. Leave the dough in a warm place for an hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Punch the dough down and knead for 1 minute. Divide in half and out of each half make 5 flat discs.
Mix the olive oil with the cheese and place approximately 3 1/2 Tbsp of the mixture onto ten of the discs (about 1 tsp each). Sprinkle each with a little salt. Press the remaining 5 discs on top of the cheesy ones.

Grease 2 loaf tin and stand the discs upright in the prepared tin. Cover with a clean cloth and leave in a warm place for 40 minutes or until doubled in size.
Glaze the loaf with a little milk then sprinkle the top with the minced garlic, Parmesan cheese &slice cheese then drizzle the top with olive oil.

Bake for 30-40 minutes or until brown and crusty and cooked through.
