Method
- In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water (105-110°F), sugar, and active dry yeast. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add flour, salt, and ⅓ cup olive oil to the yeast mixture. Stir until a sticky, wet dough forms.
- Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours until doubled in size.
- Meanwhile, wrap garlic cloves in foil with olive oil and roast at 375°F for 25-30 minutes until soft and golden.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Generously grease a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil.
- Gently deflate dough and divide evenly among muffin cups, filling each two-thirds full.
- Let rest for 15-20 minutes. Use fingertips to press deep dimples into each muffin top.
- Brush tops generously with olive oil. Press roasted garlic and rosemary into each muffin, then sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden brown and crispy on edges.
- Remove from oven and drizzle with additional olive oil while hot. Cool in pan 5 minutes before transferring to wire rack.
Notes
Store in airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in 350°F oven for best texture. Can substitute dried rosemary (use 1 tablespoon) if fresh is unavailable.
