Cheesy Bread Recipe

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Prepare the Dough:

  1. In a small bowl, dissolve sugar in warm milk. Sprinkle yeast on top and let sit 5–10 minutes until foamy.
  2. In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Add yeast mixture and melted butter, stirring until a soft dough forms.
  3. Knead for 5–7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

2. First Rise:

  • Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1–1½ hours, until doubled in size.

3. Shape and Fill:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Punch down dough and roll into a rectangle or desired shape.
  3. Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the dough. Add optional garlic powder or herbs.
  4. Roll or fold dough to enclose cheese, then place on a greased baking sheet or in a loaf pan.

4. Bake:

  • Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Cool slightly before slicing.

💛 Ashley’s Tips:

  • For extra cheesy goodness, brush the top with butter and sprinkle more cheese before baking.
  • Try mixing cheeses — mozzarella for meltiness + sharp cheddar for flavor.
  • Serve warm as a snack, with soup, or alongside pasta dishes.
