This is an old sour cream bread recipe for this deliciously different pull-apart loaf that smells heavenly while baking. It has a light crust, tender interior and lots of herb and butter flavor. We think it’s wonderful with a hot bowl of potato soup.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup water (70° to 80°)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 3 cups bread flour
  • 2-1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • GARLIC HERB BUTTER:
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon each dried oregano, thyme and rosemary, crushed

Instructions

  1. In bread machine pan, place the first 7 ingredients in order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough setting (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1-2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed).
  2. When cycle is completed, turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes. Divide dough into 36 pieces. Shape each piece into a ball. In a shallow bowl, combine butter, garlic and herbs. Dip each ball in mixture; place in an ungreased 9×5-in. loaf pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  3. Bake at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown (cover loosely with foil if bread browns too quickly). Remove from pan to a wire rack. Serve warm.
