Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups All-purpose flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1.5 cups Warm water
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 3 medium Fresh jalapenos (diced, seeds removed for less heat)
- 1 large Egg (beaten, for egg wash)
- 2 tablespoons Butter (melted, for brushing)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, instant yeast, granulated sugar, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Add the warm water and olive oil to the dry mix. Stir with a wooden spoon until a rough dough begins to form.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Gently fold in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and diced jalapenos until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rise for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Once risen, punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place it in a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan or shape it into a free-form round loaf and place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Cover the dough loosely and let it rise again for 30-40 minutes, or until it has puffed up.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
When ready to bake, brush the top of the dough with the beaten egg to give it a beautiful golden finish.
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
Remove the bread from the oven and immediately brush the top with melted butter for extra flavor and shine.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
