  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment add the flour, salt, yeast, parsley & garlic. Mix until combined.

  2. With the mixer on low speed slowly add the butter & milk. Continue kneading until a smooth dough comes together, about 5 minutes.

  3. Transfer dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp towel & let rise for 2 hours.

  4. On a lightly floured surface divide dough into 3 equal portions. Shape into a smooth round ball.

  5. Transfer the dough balls to three well greased 4-inch clay flower pots (see note). Brush the top lightly with egg wash & sprinkle with a pinch of flaked salt.

  6. Bake at 400(f) degrees until golden & cooked throughout, about 25 minutes. Let cool completely before serving. NOTE: If using new clay flower pots, they need to be cleaned & seasoned. Simply wash them well with soap, let air dry, brush with oil & bake at 400(f) for 45 minutes.
