Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 1.25 cups warm water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes, until frothy.
Step 2
Add the olive oil, salt, and approximately 2.5 cups of the all-purpose flour to the yeast mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon until the dough begins to come together.
Step 3
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes, gradually adding the remaining 0.5 cup of flour as needed, until dough is smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Step 5
Once the dough has risen, punch it down gently and divide it into 12 equal pieces.
Step 6
Flatten each piece into a small disk and place about 2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese in the center. Gather the edges of the dough up around the cheese and pinch to seal tightly in a ball shape.
Step 7
Place the shaped rolls pinched side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover the rolls with a towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
Step 8
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
Step 9
In a small bowl, beat the egg lightly and brush the tops of the rolls with it. This will give the rolls a nice, golden finish after baking.
Step 10
Bake the cheese rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the rolls sound hollow when tapped.
Step 11
Remove the rolls from the oven and brush them with melted unsalted butter.
Step 12
Allow the rolls to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving warm. Enjoy them as a side dish or a standalone snack.
