    The current situation in the world is making things hard for foodies. If you are one of the people who’s been planning to visit South Korea this year, I’m sure you are disappointed.

    Your plan of starting your mind-blowing food trip in the country may not be fulfilled today. But that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy some good Korean treats right now. Because even the very famous garlic bread can be made in the comfort of your home. And I am here to help you with that.

    Ingredients and substitute

    To make the bread, we’ll need flour, instant dry yeast, egg, milk, sugar, and salt. These are basic ingredients needed in making bread dough. However, you are free to use healthier and gluten-free alternatives like almond flour. Adding unsalted butter to the dough will make it tastier.

    The delicious filling will be made of softened cream cheese, sugar, and pure cream. Wow, just seeing the ingredients that make up the filling already builds up the anticipation, am I right?

    The goodness doesn’t end there. We’ll also be making some amazing garlic butter sauce. For that, we’ll be needing melted unsalted butter, condensed milk, minced garlic, chopped parsley, honey, and egg. All these ingredients are widely used in Korean cuisine.

    How to make

    Firstly, let us make the dough.

    If you have tried making bread before, this should be easy for you. You start by whisking the egg and milk. Then add the sugar, flour, salt, and instant dry yeast. Mix it using a spatula or wooden spoon. You can also mix it directly in your stand mixer.

    step 1 combine and mix the ingredients
    Step 1: Combine and Mix

    Next, knead it for 2 minutes at medium speed. Add 20g of unsalted butter then knead again at medium speed for 5 minutes. To check your dough if it's ready, get a small piece and shape it into a ball. Stretch the dough between your fingers, if it doesn't break and becomes translucent, that means the gluten is well-developed and it's ready to rise.

    step 2 knead the dough
    Step 2: Knead the dough

    Transfer it in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let it rise for 1.5 hours. Place it in a warm place, I usually warm up my oven at 100°C for a few minutes and turn it off. I put the dough inside as I notice it helps the dough to rise faster.

    step 3 let dough rise
    Step 3: Rise the dough

    Once the dough is ready, divide it into 4 pieces and shape into balls. Transfer in a baking tray with parchment paper and bake it in a preheated oven at 180°C for 30 minutes.

    Secondly, time to make the filling.

    This step is super easy, just combine the cream cheese, sugar and pure cream until creamy and well-combined. Transfer in a piping bag and set aside.

    step 5 prepare the creamcheese

    Thirdly, making the awesome garlic butter sauce.

    Combine melted unsalted butter, condensed milk, garlic, parsley, honey, and egg. Whisk until well combined.

    step 6 combine the toppings
    Step 6: Mix the butter toppings

    Lastly, making the good stuff.

    Cut the bread into 6 equal slices to create pockets, do not cut all the way, the bottom should be cut-free. Fill each gap with cream cheese filling. Dip each bread into the garlic butter sauce. Spoon more on top, the more the better. Lastly, bake for 10 minutes at 160°C. Serve immediately and enjoy this delicious Korean cream cheese garlic bread!

    step 7 slice and fill
    Step 7: Slice and fill the bread

    Storage and shelflife

    It is best to eat baked goods straight out of the oven. If possible, immediately consume these yummy treats after baking them.

    But if you want to save them for later, put them in a closed container or Ziploc bags. They can last inside the fridge for at least a week. Reheat the Korean cream cheese garlic bread in the oven once ready for consumption.
