Time 1h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

¼ cup olive oil
½ cup minced garlic
1 pound dandelion leaves, chopped
salt and ground black pepper to taste
8 ounces freshly grated mozzarella cheese
5 ounces freshly grated Parmesan cheese
3 cups lukewarm water
4 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons active dry yeast
5 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons salt
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
3 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add dandelion leaves and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook until dandelion is wilted, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese until melted. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Combine water, honey, and yeast in a large bowl. Allow yeast to proof until a creamy foam forms on top. Add flour and salt. Knead mixture until a dough forms, adding flour as needed if dough seems too wet.
  • Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin until it is about 1/4-inch thick. Spoon dandelion mixture on top. Roll dough starting from one side into a log shape; make slits on top using a sharp knife. Cover with a damp towel and set in a warm location to rise, about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Combine garlic and melted butter in a small bowl and brush mixture on top of the loaf.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted sunflower seeds for the pine nuts in the pesto. The bread turned out great and I didn't miss the pine nuts at all.

This bread is a great way to use up leftover dandelion leaves. I made a half batch and it turned out perfectly.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I made a few changes to suit my taste. I used a different type of flour and added some extra herbs to the pesto. The bread turned out great!

I'm not sure what went wrong with my bread, but it turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

This bread is not worth the effort. It's bland and the dandelion pesto is overpowering.

This bread is a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor is good. I think I'll try using a different flour next time.
