Basil pull-apart bread – notes

Again, I had to figure out what to give the kids for school, and from those ideas, I baked this pull-apart bread with basil pesto :)

The bread is quick and very easy to make, and it uses basic ingredients.

I prepared it with jarred pesto, but if you have more time, you can make your own homemade pesto.

On the blog, there’s a recipe for radish leaf pesto – instead of them, use basil leaves :D

You can also make this bread with “red” sun-dried tomato pesto – it will definitely be delicious.

I’ll tell you one thing – when my daughter latched onto it, she ate half of it at once. And only scraps were left for school :D

I also recommend matcha wheat bread, simple wheat bread, naan breads (perfect as a side dish for dinner, or as a ‘filler’ for a lunchbox) or basil bread.

Ps. I recommend following my instagram for delicious and easy recipes!
