Recipes FAQ
Can I use a different type of cheese?
Yes! Feel free to experiment with different kinds of cheese to suit your tastes. Gouda, cheddar, or even feta would all be delicious in this bread.Can I use dried herbs instead of fresh?
Yes, but keep in mind that dried herbs are more potent than fresh, so you'll need to use less. Use about 1/3 the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh.Recipe Tips
- For an extra burst of flavor, try adding some chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the batter.
- If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can use regular milk instead. Simply add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to 1 cup of milk and let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
- For a crispier crust, brush the top of the bread with some olive oil before baking.
