This is currently my favourite fancy bread recipe- it looks impressive but is really very easy!
1 quantity bread dough (A batch with 750g flour makes about the right amount)
100g melted butter
1 egg
25g grated parmesan cheese
2 cloves crushed garlic
1/2 tsp salt
dried herbs
Make the bread dough up to the point after the first rising. Knock it back and knead it.

Divide the dough into balls.

Mix the butter, egg, cheese, garlic, salt and herbs together.

Dip each ball of dough into the mixture, and place it in a lined or greased tin (loaf tin, round, ring tin, whatever)
Leave dough to rise again while oven preheats to 190 C
Bake for 30-40 mins.
