Ingredients

Scale

Dough:

  • 1 cup warm milk (110°F)
  • 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg

Filling:

  • 2 cups grated cheese (such as mozzarella, cheddar, or a combination)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Yeast Mixture: In a bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit until frothy, about 5-10 minutes.
  2. Mix the Dough: Combine flour and salt in a bowl. Add yeast mixture, melted butter, and egg. Mix into a dough.
  3. Knead the Dough: On a floured surface, knead the dough for 8-10 minutes until smooth.
  4. Let the Dough Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for 1 hour.
  5. Shape the Buns: Divide dough into 12 pieces, flatten each, add cheese, and form into buns.
  6. Final Rise: Place buns on a baking sheet, cover, and let them rise for 30 minutes.
  7. Preheat and Bake: Preheat oven to 375°F. Brush buns with milk or egg, then bake for 15-20 minutes.
  8. Cool and Serve: Allow the buns to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • You can customize the cheese filling with your favorite cheeses or add herbs for extra flavor.
