FAQ:
Q: Can I make this bread in advance?
A: Yes, you can prepare the dough and filling the night before, then refrigerate it overnight. The next day, bring the dough to room temperature and let it rise before baking.

Q: Can I use a different type of flour?
A: You can try using whole wheat flour, but the bread may be denser. If using gluten-free flour, make sure it’s a one-to-one replacement and has the proper binding agents.
