Time 1h14m

Yield 1 loaf, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup snipped fresh chives
1 ounce packet Hidden Valley Original Ranch Seasoning Mix
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 -5 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup finely chopped shallot
12 ounces beer (room temperature)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375°F.
In a small saute pan, cook shallot and garlic with oil until caramelized; allow to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together flour, Parmesan cheese, chives, Ranch seasoning mix, baking powder, yogurt, and shallot/garlic mixture. Stir in room temperature beer until smooth and pour batter into a well-greased loaf pan.
Bake at 375°F for 60-70 minutes or until top is golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to sit 10 minutes in the pan, then remove and cool on a wire rack.

Tips:

Use a good quality bread. A sturdy bread like a baguette or sourdough will hold up well to the toppings and won't get soggy.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cheese. A blend of mozzarella and cheddar is a classic choice, but you can also try Parmesan, Asiago, or Gruyère.
If you don't have a pastry brush, you can use a spoon to spread the butter on the bread. Just be sure to get it evenly coated.
If you're using fresh garlic, mince it very finely. You don't want any large pieces that will burn in the oven.
Bake the bread until it's golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will take about 10-15 minutes.
Let the bread cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the cheese to set and prevent it from becoming runny.

Conclusion:

Ranch garlic bread is a delicious and easy appetizer or side dish that's perfect for any occasion. With its crispy bread, melted cheese, and flavorful ranch seasoning, it's sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty snack, give this recipe a try.
