Ingredients
For the Bread
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 4 1/2 teaspoons Red Star Yeast Active Dry Yeast (see note)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup butter or margarine
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
For the Filling
- 1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian herb seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup (4 ounces) cheddar cheese, shredded
Instructions
- In large mixer bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups flour, yeast, sugar and salt; mix well.
- In saucepan, heat milk, water and butter until warm (120-130°F; butter does not need to melt).
- Add to flour, and add egg. With electric mixer, Blend at low speed until moistened; beat 3 minutes at medium speed. By hand, gradually stir in remaining flour to make a stiff batter.
- Prepare FILLING: Combine all Filling ingredients; mix well.
- Sprinkle sesame seed in well-greased 12-cup Bundt® pan or 10-inch tubed cake pan. Spread half of batter in pan. Spoon Filling over batter. Spread remaining batter over Filling. (Batter will cover the filling during baking.) Cover; let rise in warm place until double, about 1 hour.
- Bake at 350°F for 35 to 40 minutes until golden brown. Invert onto serving plate. Cool.
Notes
- You can substitute Instant (fast-rising) in place of Active Dry Yeast in batter/no knead recipes. When using Instant Yeast, expect your batter/dough to rise faster – about 50% faster. Adjust your rise times accordingly.
- Traditional methods: use equal amounts; Bread Machine: use 1/2 tsp Instant Yeast OR 3/4 tsp Active Dry Yeast per cup of flour in your recipe.
