Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). On a floured surface, roll out bread dough into a 12x8-inch rectangle, pressing gently to remove air bubbles.
- Step 2: Using a knife, cut the dough into 12 equal squares (each approx. 4x4 inches). Place squares on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Step 3: In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp honey, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp melted butter, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Brush the glaze evenly over the dough squares.
- Step 4: Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden and crispy. Let cool slightly before serving.
