- Prep the garlic: Slice the top off the garlic and place it on a piece of aluminum foil.
- Add oil: Pour olive oil over the garlic bulbs.
- Roast: Wrap it tightly. It should look like a small pouch. Place it on a baking sheet and roast it in the oven for 40 minutes.
- Check for doneness: To check doneness, carefully remove the aluminum foil (be careful as it is hot and steamy) and see if the garlic cloves are softened and lightly caramelized. If they are, you are good to go. If not, wrap it back up and let it roast for 5-10 more minutes or until the cloves are fully softened.
- Remove the cloves: Let the roasted garlic cool for 10-15 minutes. Gently squeeze the head from the root end, pushing out all the soft cloves until you are left with the outer skin. Discard the skin and transfer the roasted garlic into a medium bowl.
- Mash: Using the back of a fork, mash garlic until it is fully pureed.
- Roll out the dough using a rolling pin or your hands to flatten, spread the butter on top, sprinkle cheese and

(Don’t be alarmed if there’s melted butter around the sides of the bread as it bakes, it will seep into the bread before it finishes.) Remove from the oven and place the pan on a wire rack. If desired, brush with melted butter for topping and sprinkle with sea salt.
- Lightly coat a loaf pan with cooking spray.
- Stack the dough squares on top of each other and arrange them in the prepared baking dish.
