Cheesy, herby, garlicky buns! What a time to be alive! Surprising and unassuming, these soft buns are so insane, you will never EVER buy store bought garlic bread ever again. Take one bite into those soft buns and surprise your taste buds with garlicky herb goodness and luscious, stringy cheese. Here are a few tips:

  1. Use a 13 x 9 inch tray to make your buns. You can use the tray for my other tray bake recipes
  2. Freeze the buns to use on a special occasion, it will still taste just as soft and amazing
  3. Make enough garlic, herb butter to save in the fridge to use for other things! (E.g. an epic risotto)
