Garlic bread

I always loved baking as it made me happy.When I tell this to people they do find it funny however for me it's the fragrance of spices and dough which is required to lift up my mood.

Baking teaches you to be more cognizant of what you put into your body on a daily basis. Once you start baking regularly, you come to learn the actions of certain ingredients or why one recipe worked while another failed miserably.

But over the years I have learnt it with practice.And trust me the more you burn more you learn....So here is one of my favorite and simple recipies.Which you all will love.
