Here’s a simple, cheesy bread roll recipe 🧀🥖 — soft, savory, and perfect as a snack or side.
Cheese Rolls
Ingredients (makes 8–10 rolls)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp instant yeast
- ¾ cup warm milk
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)
- 1 egg (optional, for brushing)
Instructions
- Activate yeast: Mix warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let sit 5–10 minutes until foamy.
- Make dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add yeast mixture and melted butter. Mix until a soft dough forms.
- Knead: Knead 5–7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rise 1 hour, or until doubled.
- Shape rolls: Punch down dough, divide into 8–10 pieces. Flatten each piece slightly, place a little cheese in the center, and fold/seal into a ball.
- Second rise: Place rolls on a greased baking tray, cover, and let rise 20–30 minutes.
- Egg wash (optional): Brush tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.
- Bake: Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15–20 minutes, until golden and cheese is melted.
- Cool slightly and enjoy warm.
Variations
- Extra cheesy: Sprinkle more cheese on top before baking.
- Herb flavor: Add garlic powder, rosemary, or thyme to the dough.
- Quick version: Use pre-made biscuit dough and just add cheese inside.
I can also give a super gooey cheddar-filled version that’s like a cheese bomb if you want.
