Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast (1 packet)
- 1 cup warm milk (110°F)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
- 1 cup diced ham or bacon (optional)
Instructions
- Activate the yeast by mixing warm milk, sugar, and yeast in a small bowl. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until foamy.
- In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add melted butter, eggs, and the yeast mixture. Mix until combined and knead on a floured surface for about 6 minutes until smooth.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm spot until doubled in size (about 1 hour).
- Punch down the dough and roll it out into a rectangle. Sprinkle cheese and diced ham or bacon over the surface before rolling tightly.
- Slice into equal pieces (about 2 inches thick) and place cut-side up in a greased baking dish. Cover again and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for about 25 minutes until golden brown.
