Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 1 packages - active dry yeast
- 1 cups - warm water (105 to 115 degrees F)
- 2 tablespoons - sugar
- 3 tablespoons - milk
- 1 - egg beaten
- 2 teaspoons - salt
- 4 cups - bread flour plus additional for rolling
- 2 teaspoons - minced garlic optional
- 1/4 cups - butter melted
Directions:
1. Dissolve yeast in warm water (with 1/2 teaspoon sugar) in a large bowl. Let stand until frothy, about 10 minutes. Stir in sugar, milk, egg, salt and enough of the flour to make a soft dough.
2. Knead on a lightly floured surface (or in stand mixer) until smooth, about 6-8 minutes by hand, 3-4 minutes in mixer. Transfer to a well-oiled bowl and cover with a towel or damp cloth; let rise until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
3. Punch dough down and knead in the garlic (if using). Cut dough into 12 equal pieces, roll into balls, and set on a parchment-lined plate. Cover with a towel and let rise until doubled in size, about 30 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, preheat an outdoor grill to around 375 or 425 degrees F. Roll each dough ball into a 6-inch round (about 1/8-inch thick) with a rolling pin on a lightly floured surface. (Stack the rounds on a plate with pieces of parchment in between them as you go, so they'll be ready to take out to the grill.)
5. Lightly oil the grill grate. Put 6 rounds on the grill and cook, covered, until puffy and lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Brush tops with some butter and turn over. Brush other sides with butter and cook until browned, about another 2 minutes. Remove from the grill and cook remaining 6 rounds in same manner.
