Peeta's Stuffed Cheese Buns
Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water (probably somewhere between 105º and 115º. I just get it hot from the tap. Don’t get it too hot or it will kill the yeast.)
- 2 tablespoons yeast
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons salt
- At least 8 oz. of cheese, the more the merrier (I used chunks of mozzarella for the inside and a mixture of shredded colby and swiss for the top. I was just trying to use up all the forgotten chunks in the hidden corners of the fridge)
- Parmesan cheese
- A few tablespoons of melted butter mixed with a sprinkle of garlic powder and some fresh herbs if you want.
Instructions
- Mix together the yeast and water and let it sit for a couple minutes. Add 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 or by hand. 3, Let the dough rise in a greased bowl (I used the same bowl) covered with a wet cloth for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375º.
- Divide the dough into about 20 pieces or so (you can make them as big or small as you want).
- Put about a 3/4 inch chunk of cheese in each one and make sure you pinch all the edges back up tightly.
- Put the pinched side down on a greased baking sheet.
- Sprinkle the buns with more shredded cheese and some parmesan cheese.
- Bake at 375ºF for about 11-15 minutes until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
- Brush with the melted butter and serve warm
