Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 1 tablespoon Sugar
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Milk
• 0.25 cup Water
• 8 ounces Low sodium mozzarella cheese
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, combine unsalted butter, milk, and water. Warm over low heat until the butter melts and the mixture is lukewarm.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of the flour, instant yeast, sugar, and the lukewarm milk mixture. Stir until smooth.

Step 3

Gradually add the remaining flour and stir until a soft dough forms.

Step 4

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.

Step 5

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Step 6

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 7

Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal portions.

Step 8

Flatten each dough portion into a circle and place a small cube of low sodium mozzarella cheese in the center.

Step 9

Pinch the edges of the dough together to seal the cheese inside and form a ball.

Step 10

Place the filled rolls seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 11

Brush the tops of the rolls with olive oil and, if desired, sprinkle with dried oregano.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on a wire rack before serving.
