Cheesy Garlic Bread

What is it?

Garlic pizza bread comes topped with a generous layer of melted mozzarella on a standard dough base, with garlic butter spread underneath. It's baked as a flat round, so the crust stays chewy in the centre and picks up a little crispness at the edges where the cheese thins out. Compared with the plain garlic bread on the same menu, this version adds the cheese layer but keeps the same simple foundation of bread, butter, and garlic. Sliced into wedges for sharing, it works as a starter or a side with pizza, and the garlic flavour comes through strongly enough to stand on its own. Mozzarella browns lightly on top during baking, adding a slightly nutty note to the garlicky base.
