Instructions
- In a stand mixer bowl, combine warm water, yeast, sugar, olive oil, salt, egg, and potato flakes; mix until combined.
- Gradually add flour and cheeses. Using the dough hook attachment, mix on low for 1-2 minutes then increase to medium for about 6-7 minutes until the dough pulls away from the sides.
- Transfer dough to an oiled bowl, cover with a towel or plastic wrap, and let rise for about 30 minutes.
- Divide the dough into four pieces and shape each into logs. Place them on a baking sheet lined with a silicone mat.
- Prepare toppings by mixing garlic powder, Parmesan cheese, oregano, and parsley; sprinkle over the logs after brushing them with water.
