Ingredients You Will Need
For the Dough
• 3 cups all purpose flour
• 1 cup warm milk
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon instant yeast
• 1 fourth cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg for brushing
For the Cheese Filling
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• One half cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 tablespoon cream cheese optional
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Step by Step Method
Step 1
Start by preparing the dough. In a large mixing bowl, add the warm milk and sugar. Stir it well until the sugar melts. Add the instant yeast and mix again. Let this mixture sit for five minutes until it becomes slightly frothy. This shows that the yeast is active and ready to help your dough rise.
Step 2
Add the vegetable oil to the mixture and stir. Slowly add the all purpose flour and salt. Mix with a spoon at first and then use your hands to bring the dough together. When it starts to form a soft ball, move it to a clean surface and knead it for eight to ten minutes. The dough should become smooth and stretchy. If it feels sticky, sprinkle a little flour.
Step 3
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl and cover it with a clean cloth. Let it rest for one hour or until it becomes double in size. This rising time is important because it creates the soft and fluffy texture that makes the buns delicious.
Step 4
While the dough rises, prepare the cheese filling. In a bowl, mix the mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, cream cheese if using, oregano, thyme, and garlic powder. Combine them well. The herbs add a nice smell and flavor while the cheese gives a creamy and stretchy bite.
Step 5
After the dough has doubled in size, press it gently to release the air. Divide it into equal small balls. Take one ball, flatten it with your fingers, and place a spoonful of the cheese mixture in the center. Bring the edges together and pinch tightly to seal the cheese inside. Shape it into a smooth ball.
Step 6
Place all the stuffed dough balls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Leave a little space between each bun so they can rise nicely. Cover the tray with a cloth and let the buns rest for twenty minutes.
Step 7
Brush the top of each bun with beaten egg for a shiny and golden finish. Preheat your oven to one hundred eighty degree Celsius. Bake the buns for fifteen to twenty minutes or until the tops turn golden and the buns feel slightly firm when touched.
