Bread and cheese are two of the best things in the food world. Combined them together and you have perfection.
Mozzarella Stuffed Buns (a variation of this recipe)
- 1 cup warm water (not too hot or it will kill the yeast)
- 2 tbsp yeast
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp salt
- 8 oz of mozzarella cheese in 1 inch cubes
- Melted garlic herb butter
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Mix together the yeast and water and let it sit for a couple minutes to proof. In your mixer bowl, combine the sugar, garlic powder, melted butter, and oil. Add the flour a little and a time, mixing in your stand mixer with a dough hook. Add the salt. Knead for 10 minutes, in the stand mixer. Let the dough rise in a greased bowl for 30 minutes.
Turn the dough onto a floured counter top and kneed until smooth and not too sticky, about 5 times. Divide the dough into 15 to 20 pieces, depending on how large you want the buns. Place a chunk of cheese in the center of each one, making sure to pinch the edges together to completely cover the cheese. Place seam side down onto a greased baking sheet. Sprinkle the buns with more cheese and top with some melted garlic herb butter. Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Makes approx 20 buns.
Who could resist eating one of the great sounding buns…not me!
Not me either…
Looks and sounds delicious.
They were wonderful!
That would be perfect w/a soup in a cold weather like this.
Absolutely!! Thanks for commenting.
I was reading the post and wondered, “Gee. How would that work?” And then I saw your 2nd photo. It works better than I could possibly have imagined. Another great idea and recipe. Thanks for sharing.
We really enjoyed these. My husband said to me, “I know why I like these so much. You baked crack into them!” I think that is a positive endorsement.
