Whole wheat garlic bread from scratch is the best homemade appetizer to beat the lockdown blues. Stuffed garlic bread to pair with any Italian meal. It is a delicious side dish. It is healthy as i used whole wheat flour. I have used baking soda and baking powder in this recipe but you can also use dry yeast instead. Don't forget to add sugar to yeast and warm milk. Sugar in Yeast helps in fermentation process.
