Ingredients
- 300 grams all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 50 grams unsalted butter
- 150 milliliters whole milk
- 125 grams Camembert cheese
- 1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the leavening agents.
Step 3
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the dry ingredients. Using your fingertips, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Step 4
Gradually pour in the milk, stirring with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be soft but not sticky.
Step 5
Lightly flour your work surface and knead the dough gently for 1-2 minutes to bring it together. Flatten the dough into a rectangle approximately 2 cm (0.8 inches) thick.
Step 6
Cut the Camembert cheese into small cubes and press them evenly into the dough. Sprinkle the freshly cracked black pepper over the surface, then fold the dough in half to seal the cheese inside. Knead lightly to distribute the cheese chunks.
Step 7
Divide the dough into six equal portions and shape each portion into a round roll. Place the rolls on the prepared baking tray, leaving some space between each roll for expansion.
Step 8
Using a sharp knife, make a shallow cross-cut on the top of each roll. This allows steam to escape and gives the rolls a rustic appearance.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Step 10
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for garnish if desired.
Step 11
Serve warm to enjoy the oozy, melted Camembert and the aromatic black pepper. These rolls pair wonderfully with soups, stews, or even on their own with a dab of butter.
