1In a pot, mix together 1/2 cup of milk and 3/4 cups of water.
2Add 1 tablespoon of sugar and mix well.
3Turn off the heat and let it rest until lukewarm.
4Add 1 packet of active dry yeast.
5In a mixing bowl, add 3 cups of all-purpose flour and an additional 1/2 tablespoon of sugar.
6Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture.
7Mix until a dough ball forms. The key is to make sure the liquid is not too warm when adding the yeast.
8Place the dough in a bowl, cover it, and let it rise for one hour.
9Prepare the garlic butter by mixing together 2 sticks of butter, 1 tablespoon of parsley, 2 tablespoons of garlic, and 1/2 tablespoon of onion powder.
10Roll out the risen dough and spread the garlic butter evenly.
11Cut the dough into portions, stack them up and place in a buttered bread loaf pan.
12Cover the loaf and let it sit for 30 minutes.
13Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes.
