    This isn’t your average garlic bread recipe… It is so much more fun!  Garlic Pull Apart Bread is easy, fool proof and yields the softest and best garlic bread ever! Whether you use premade biscuit dough or make homemade biscuits, this recipe is the perfect addition to any meal!

    Garlic Parmesan Pull-Apart Rolls

    Are you a bread lover? I know I sure am! In fact, bread seems to be a staple side item to just about any dinner I serve. When you add in a Garlic Parmesan addition, I am in Heaven!

    This Pull-Apart Bread is soft, flavorful, and beyond easy to make. It’s a family favorite because not only can you pull apart the bread and dip each piece into a sauce of your choosing, but each biscuit piece literally melts in your mouth and compliments any meal it is served with. It is fancy enough to serve when guests come over, but simple enough to prepare for a quick and easy side dish on a busy weeknight.

    My kids are always requesting this! Soft, warm, cheesy, and the best savory flavor. The best part about this recipe is the fact that you only need a can of Grands biscuits and a couple other simple ingredients to whip it up. It really doesn’t get much easier than that, right?!

    Ingredients Needed

    Using only a few simple ingredients, this comes together in no time! See printable recipe card below for exact measurements and directions!

    • Pillsbury Biscuits– they are so versatile! I just used the regular kind here, not the flaky layers
    • Melted Butter– adds lots of flavor
    • Garlic Powder– or feel free to use fresh minced garlic
    • Salt
    • Italian seasoning– such a savory addition
    • Parmesan Cheese– shredded or grated work great

    How to make Garlic Pull-Apart Bread

    Such an easy recipe to throw together for any occasion! Simply combine ingredients and bake! An easy, peasy, shortcut recipe! 

    1. Preheat oven and Melt butter.
    2. Add seasonings into butter. 
    3. Pour garlic butter mixture into a pie plate or loaf pan.
    4. Cut the Pillsbury biscuits into quarters (use a pizza slicer to cut the biscuit quickly).
    5. Place the biscuit dough balls on top of the butter mixture evenly.
    6. Bake in a preheated oven at 350 for about 20-25 minutes. They should appear golden brown.
    7. Remove from the oven and carefully flip the bread onto a plate. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top and serve!

    Alternative Ingredients to Try

    After you’ve made this great recipe at least one as is, you can allow yourself to get creative in the kitchen the next time you make it again. There are always different ways to switch up a recipe to better meet your personal preferences! 

    • Red pepper flakes are great if you ever want to kick up the spice level in a dish and bring some heat to it!
    • Olive oil — some may opt for olive oil vs. butter but it’s really all about your preference
    • Mozzarella cheese will give you more of that cheesy pull
    • Marinara sauce (as a side for dipping)
    • Homemade Biscuits in place of Pillsbury

    Tasty Dipping Sauces

    This Pull Apart Bread is great on its own, in fact, that is how we enjoy it 99% of the time. However, if you’re feeling wild and crazy, experiment with some fun dipping sauces. Here are some great options:

    Chick Fil A Sauce– a copycat version of the classic restaurant favorite now made conveniently at home

    Southern Comeback Sauce– only 6 ingredients needed for this tasty, mayonnaise based dipping sauce

    Alabama White BBQ Sauce– a creamy BBQ sauce that is perfect for just about anything and everything desired

    Copycat Torchy’s  Cheesy Queso- cheesy goodness with loads of add in’s

    quartered biscuit pieces placed in a pie plate

    Storing Leftovers

    I can’t guarantee leftovers for this recipe because it’s quite addictive, however, if you do have some, here are some ways to store:

    • At Room Temperature: You’ll want to keep this garlic parmesan pull-apart bread covered so it doesn’t dry out as quickly. Wrap in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container. It will stay good for 2 days.
    • Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to 7 days. Reheat in microwave when ready to serve.
    • Freezer: Store in a freezer safe container for up to 2 months. Reheat in microwave once thawed.
