Instructions

The Dough

Combine warm water, yeast, and sugar in a bowl; let sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
Stir in flour, oil, and salt until a shaggy dough forms.
Knead on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise for 60 minutes in a warm place.

Assembly & Baking

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Divide dough in half. Roll each into a 10x6 inch rectangle.
Place on a baking sheet, leaving a small gap between the two halves.
Pile the shredded mozzarella into the center channel between the loaves and sprinkle across the inner edges.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and cheese is bubbling.
Cut each loaf crosswise into thick pull-apart slices while hot, keeping them nestled together.
Whisk melted butter, garlic, and parmesan; brush generously over the baked loaves.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with warm marinara.

Chef's Notes & Tips

Tip 1 of 2

Brush the crust with garlic butter immediately after removing from the oven to ensure maximum flavor absorption.

Tip 2 of 2

For the best texture, use a serrated knife to cut through the crust gently without squashing the airy, molten center.
