Rustic Garlic Rosemary Skillet Bread

Rustic Garlic Rosemary Skillet Bread

This rustic, aromatic skillet bread features a deeply flavorful slow-rise dough infused with minced garlic, fresh rosemary, and warm black pepper. The long fermentation creates a chewy interior with an open crumb, while baking in a cast iron skillet gives the loaf a beautifully crisp, golden crust. With minimal handling and no kneading, this bread delivers artisan-style results right from your home kitchen.
