Bread is delicious.

On more than one occasion my friends and I have had dinner that consists solely of bread and cheese. And wine. Because wine is important.

This bread combines a delicious dough with cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic and basil for a pizza-like tasting bread in the most beautiful “S” shape.

You may remember that my girl Joy (of Joy the Baker) has been hosting baking bootcamps along with the fine folks at King Arthur Flour. This recipe isn’t a baking bootcamp recipe but it is a new fun project the people at King Arthur flour are hosting called “Bake Along”.

Every month, they post a new seasonal recipe for us home baker to try. There are no prizes involved but you do get to stretch your baking muscles and try things that maybe you (or I) haven’t thought to do before.

This pane bianco was the challenge for August.

I had a busy August and didn’t actually get around to making it then, but I did make it on Sept. 1st, so we’re just going to pretend that August lasted an extra day.

This bread is fun! You kind of assemble it like you would if you were making cinnamon rolls but once you roll it up into a log, instead of just slicing off rolls you slice it down the middle (not all the way through) and twist it into an “S” shape. So you can actually see some of the filling instead of it just being a closed, stuffed loaf.

It’s deceptively easy to make and tastes so, so good. And it’ll make your kitchen smell great which is always a good thing.

Let’s make bread, guys!
