Ingredients

1 ready pizza dough basesee pizza recipe on the blog
2tablespoons unsalted butter
2 garlic clovesfinely chopped or grated
1tablespoon herbs(any of flat-leaf parsley, rosemary, spring onions greens) finely chopped
1tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
sea salt
sea salt flakesfor finishing

Instructions

Make the garlic butter:

Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until just softened, about 2 minutes. Be careful not to let the garlic colour, else the flavour will change. Remove from heat and stir in the herbs and oil; season with salt.

To finish the bread:

Bake the dough base as per the pizza recipe, without any toppings. It might less time to bake as the dough is bare, so keep an eye out.
As soon as the pizza is baked and has several deep golden spots, take it out and pour the buttery garlicky oil on it. Sprinkle with some more sea salt and eat hot, cut into wedges and rolled up.
