Pull a p a r t garlic bread + sweet cinnamon version

There's a good chance that somewhere on Instagram you've come across pull a p a r t bread loaf, if you haven't, here's your chance because I couldn't resist trying it out!

It's a well-known fact that I'm a big fan of dough, and lately I've been looking forward to buying bread less and less, it's no secret bought one became almost tasteless.

Although I don't always have the opportunity to treat us to a home-made warm loaf of bread, I tend to whenever time allows, two hours on average is enough to afford this pleasure, the timing fits easily while the lunch is simmering on the stove (hope I convinced you and gave you enough reasons to roll up your sleeves), and if I didn't succeed, maybe this magnificent cotton loaf will!

Idea was to make two versions,
two different kind of flours,
two different flavors.

What do you need to make the dough?

Savory version will be similar to those wonderful and overpriced frozen baguettes with garlic and herbs from Lidl, sweet one still follows winter mood board therefore cinnamon, sugar and apples!

Both loaves are prepared separately, the measurements are only for one:

200 ml of lukewarm milk 100 ml water 20 grams of fresh yeast 1 egg 20ml of melted butter a teaspoon of sugar a teaspoon of salt 500-600 grams of whole wheat flour

Prepare the garlic coating by first lightly frying 5/6 cloves until soft, then add melted butter, salt, pepper, basil, oregano, marjoram or spices of your choice (you can omit all of the above and make it plain).
Mash the onion with a fork and set aside to absorb all the spices.

Knead the dough like any other, dissolve the yeast in milk and water mixed with sugar, leave it to rise, add all the other ingredients in a bowl with flour, and then mix everything together until everything is combined.
Leave in a warm place for the dough to double in size.

Tear off pieces of the desired size with your hands, spread them apart with a rolling pin (about 4 cm), there are several ways to shape the bread, I did both on this occasion as I had two loafs.

Coat each part with a mixture of garlic and spices, and then fold it over.

You will also need a mold for this loaf, it would be best if it were in the shape of a rectangle, but whatever will do the job.
Arrange each fold tightly next to each other, sprinkle with a little more oil between each.
Give it a little more time to rise, heat the oven to 180c, then bake for about 30 minutes.

For the sweet version, repeat the entire procedure with the same measurements (possibly add a few more spoonful's of sugar to the dough), instead of whole wheat, I used sharp type 400 flour and added one extra spoon of cinammon.

Thinly slice one peeled apple, sprinkle it with sugar and cinnamon to taste.

Roll out a 4cm thick crust from the dough, cut squares with a knife, sprinkle them with melted butter, a mixture of cinnamon and sugar and put two pieces of apple on each square, fold each.

As I said, the shape is not that important, especially for the sweet version, so the Bundt cake shape will work great for this occasion, oil it slightly and then fold squares like it's done with savory version.
