Ingredients:
For the dough:
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
3/4 cup warm water (about 110°F or 45°C)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup milk
1 egg (for egg wash, optional)
For the garlic butter filling:
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3 cloves garlic, minced (or more for an extra garlicky flavor)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano (optional)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
For the cheese filling:
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (or a blend of mozzarella and cheddar)
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
Instructions:
Prepare the Dough: In a small bowl, mix the warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for 5-10 minutes, or until the mixture becomes frothy and bubbly.
Make the Dough: In a larger bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture, olive oil, and milk, and stir to form a dough. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, sprinkle in a little more flour as needed.
