Ingredients:

For the Dough:

• 1 1/2 tbsp instant yeast
• 1/4 cup raw honey
• 3 cups bread flour, plus more for dusting
• 1 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 1/2 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
• 1 large egg
• 3 tbsp avocado oil

For the Filling:

• Unsalted butter, softened
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• Shredded cheese (mozzarella, cheddar, or a mix)

For Topping:

• Extra rosemary, garlic, and cheese for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

1. Activate the Yeast:
   In a small bowl, mix the warm milk, yeast, and 1 teaspoon of the honey. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy.
