Ingredients

Scale

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons instant yeast
1 teaspoon salt
¾ cup warm water (about 110°F)
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
Optional: grated Parmesan, red pepper flakes, sun-dried tomatoes, olives

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, yeast, and salt. Gradually add warm water and olive oil; stir to form a shaggy dough.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 6-8 minutes until smooth. Place in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise for about 1 hour until doubled.
Preheat oven to 375°F and grease a muffin tin.
Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 portions; roll into balls and place in muffin cups. Let rest for 20 minutes.
Mix garlic, rosemary, olive oil, flaky salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Press dimples into each muffin ball and spoon the mixture on top.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Cool slightly before serving.
